Let's make up some new words! :D

You've heard of the new "staycation" or even the "playcation". This last November I went on a "Praycation" in Lake Tahoe.

Praycation - [n.] A short or long trip somewhere, in which your time is devoted to connecting with and talking to The Lord Almighty.

or how 'bout this one…

Cybernation - [n.] The state in which a blog, forum, or website that receives regular updates has ceased to be updated for longer than a season.

Cybernation, this word was used in an old documentary from the US that was about Cyberpunk in the mid 90s. :geek: It was a program about the future (where we are know) it was the early days of internet when you had to have a phone number to call up a computer somewhere in the world to connect directly to that closed net/web. They talked about the cybernation to come in form of a what we today now knows as world wide web (www). They also spoke with computergeeks :geek: and the first generation of cyperpunks, hackers and other forms of code-breakers. It is a legendary program. Cybernation was when people started to use the web as there homecomunity/or reality to meet reel people (maybe like this to :shock: ) mostly in a 3D enviorment in VR. 8)

Sorry that your to late about the word, it is a good one. :roll:
