Lake Superior State University 2008 List of Banished Words.

Every year Lake Superior State University releses a list of overused words from the year before.  Here is the list of words and I’m sure you will agree with most of them. The list reminds me of back in the day when I authored a decimating yet random webinar. It was post 9/11, but before Black Friday.  It was my way of giving back. What can I say? It is what it is.
