Kjorn -- as best as I can figure "Kjorn" is a name...but it seems you are using it as an infinitive...

Did I miss some relevant news posting or broadcast?

:-) well, in the tradition of Jabberwocky, no, it's nothing you've missed. you do win the prize for a. being the first to ask and b. trying to get answers yourself.

i've got to run right now, but maybe i'll come back to post what prompted it if you're interested.

I'm always interested. It's like a switch that can't be turned off.

well, i guess it's just an expression of frustration at our/my inability to know clearly(the kjorn line)and then to do perfectly(snuffleglump), but we still insist on offering our authoritative but arbitrary view of life. "Pink" is an expression from a friend of mine's family. it means whatever they want it to, acts as any part of speech they want it to, and conveys whatever they want it to.

i thought nonsense words were an ironically fitting way to haiku it.
