Haven't We Met? Wikumble is My New Word.

... well, have you met Emilie-Claire Barlow? Let me introduce you.

She's Canadian. She sings. Jazz, swing, bossa nova. The works.

Here she is with Bruno Pelletier (if you play the video below, please remember to scroll all the way down to the bottom of my blog and turn the volume down on the music player.. or else you'll get two sets of music at once.. and neither usually complements the other).

s' great.



I wikumbled upon this fair young musician on Wikipedia - wasn't she a great find?!

By the way, Wikumble is my new word. I made it up.

Here's some background for this word: It originates from two words - wikipedia and stumble.

What I've done is combined these two words and formed the one word wikumble, which is a random search on wikipedia (on wikipedia's page to the left under navigation, you should see "random article"... keep hitting the button, or stumbling, until you've found something interesting).

Whenever I "stumble" upon a great find there - I've wikumbled!

S0, go ye therefore, and wikumble.

OOH! I like this new word: wikumble. We might have to start using it repeatedly to get it to catch on. Who knows - in a few years it could actually make the Websters Dictionary!
