Moink!
Started to begin planning fundraising for PTP trip and am working on trying to make an Eiffel Tower out of plywood. I'm going to stick it in people's lawns and ask for donations.
Moink...my invention of a word.
Oops, gotta go, bye!

I live in Italy. I wish you could put your Eiffel Tower on my lawn. I wish I had a lawn. You could put it on my balcony...
I love the word "moink". It could describe an irritating person (what a moink!) or a great mood or activity (I'm feeling really moink today. I think I'll take a moink with my best friend).

I also like the word "moink." I think of it as being onomatopoetic--much like Molly's "What a moink!"
You'd be welcome to put your Eiffel on my lawn, if I only had a lawn.... I have a parking lot. Sigh. You could put it on my idiot neighbor's car. ;) That would be funny. I would pay a lot for that treat.
Good luck on your fund-raising, Sparky Yankovic.

Writergirl,
What does onomatopoetic mean?

Hi Sparky,
Onomatopoeia is "the naming of a thing or action by a vocal imitation of the sound associated with it." Words like "zoom" and "boing" are onomatopoetic. I found that definition by going to the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary (http://www.m-w.com/).
