Consider the word research. Usually research is thought of as quest to uncover new information, but the word re-search would suggest a second search for old information that has already been discovered before
Upon the remarks that I do not sign off my PM’s as Henk, I have explained quite often that:
One fine morning a very dear (ex) colleague called me absent minded “Henk” two times in a row.
So I told her that I did not have any objections to be “Henk for you too” = Henk4U2.
Back in 1994 I replaced the crappy suspension fork that came with my Giant Cadex CFM-3 with a Manitou 3 from Answer products. I always thought the Manitou 2 was funny (especially since it was a pink tou-2).
Since manithree is a made-up word, it’s almost always available and I use it everywhere.
When I was a kid I liked the little puzzle game called Klotski where you move the pieces around to get one specific pieces out. When I started working I would get calls from company’s wanting to sell me something I didn’t need (shop air hose, light bulbs, cleaning solutions) I would politely tell them that I didn’t need it but if they were persistent and wouldn’t quit I would simply say they need to speak with Klotski. Now when I page Klotski over the intercom everyone just laughs, I actually have a friend that sells this way and a good product but some of these people just wont quit.
