__________________________________________________
'Lame duck' was originally an 18th century term for investors in the stock market who could not, or would not, pay their brokers. Later in 1926 a Wisconsin newspaper, wrote the heading: 'Making a lame duck of Coolidge'. Calvin Coolidge would be the first of many American presidents to be saddled with the epithet - Lame duck president.
Here is an unusual word to throw into your conversation - anatine, it means duck-like.
I've included unusual duck images among the lame duck images... they couldn't all be lame ducks!!! I wonder if anyone can spot the image that really doesn't fit in!!!
If you want to know what I am celebrating tomorrow feel free to return to this page after 10 pm (GMT - UK) when I will post a link to preview tomorrow's celebration puzzle.
