Rida's correct – the end is near and it seems that with the final stretch in sight I've been posting later and later and….

Hell I don't have a word yet!

T. Popular letter. Useful for This and for That. Those and These. Terrible and Tolerable. Tyrants and Thieves and…

Oh PICK A WORD, will you?

Fine.

T is for Tenacious.

1 a : not easily pulled apart : COHESIVE <a tenacious metal> b : tending to adhere or cling especially to another substance <tenacious burs>
2 a : persistent in maintaining, adhering to, or seeking something valued or desired <a tenacious advocate of civil rights> <tenacious negotiators> b : RETENTIVE <a tenacious memory>

People seeking to compliment me call me tenacious. People seeking to insult me call me abrasive. When I really want something, really really want something, I will fight for it, tooth and nail and headfirst into the breech. Tenacity if you're on my side, a pit bull if you are against me.

Funny how that works, isn't it?
