OK,
guys, this is your chance to show her you were listening!Kameleon Jewelry is still the rage at MKS
JEWELERS, and if she doesn't have a piece yet, you'll be

country store that is full of unique gifting items, and

The word malarkey, from the
11th edition of Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, is
shown in this photograph.
Thanks to the election, socialism and capitalism are forever wed
as Merriam-Webster's most looked-up words of 2012. Democracy,
globalization, marriage, meme, malarkey and bigot also made the
Top 10.
