My reference source(the Oxford American Dictionary and Language Guide), reads:
blath-er / n & v/ n foolish chatter / v chatter foolishly

Seems to me that there are SOME people around here who have less of a tolerance for "suffering fools gladly" than I HAVE.

Hmmmm...interesting. I NEVER thought I'd live to see the day where THAT could happen. Go figure!

Okay. That's IT for me on this subject. I CAN'T get any more foolishly clever in my blathering than THAT!

(wait a minute there..."foolishly CLEVER???!!!...Okay, where's that book....O...OX...OXY...ah, THERE it is!...Oxymoron...OxyMORON???!!!.....HEY!!! Now I'M insulted!!!)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
