warchalking - Warchalking is adding a simple symbol (presumably in chalk) to the sidewalk or wall near where a wireless 802.11 signal is available. The symbol denotes what sort of Internet access is available and whether or not WEP or other security is used to protect the wireless network. The warchalking idea is based on the hobo sign languages of the early 20th century in the USA. (This word was sent out by Paul McFedries.)

e.g., Calvin has been busy warchalking the wireless nodes, the hotspots, all over the city.

was not speaking the truth - Long talk for saying someone is lying. Not just that what she (i.e., the person) is saying is false, but that she knows it's false. She knows what she's saying is untrue; ergo, she's lying, not merely telling (or propogating) a falsehood. Some (many?) would argue that this construct does not necessarily mean any more than that The Speaker is uttering a falsehood -- that she doesn't necessarily know what she's saying isn't true. For those for whom comity is a high priority, that's not an unreasonable interpretation. However, knuckledragger HD has no qualms about telling it straight.

e.g., Karl Rove said, "Pelosi was not speaking the truth" when she said she was unaware that harsh interrogation techniques were actually being used at Gitmo. What are we to believe? That she thought they were being used as a threat that wouldn't be carried out? -- such as telling your daughter you'll ground her for life if she tries to date a guy with tattoos, especially one with a smiley face tattoed on his. . . .

watchbird - A military droid, soon used for domestic law enforcement, as imagined by Robert Scheckley in his 1953 short story of the same title. Sheckley's tale (set in 2003) of technology gone wrong can be read in its entirety at the link provided.    "'Watchbird' postulates a scenario where scientists, working for a private sector corporation, have perfected a technique to invade the human mind (in essence to become telepathic) to such an intimate degree that the computer-programmed, miniaturized components the corporation can produce to literally read our very thoughts are narrowed to such a fine-tuned degree that they are able to determine when anyone is about to commit murder (can human thought be reduced to bits and bytes?). The military (with the approval of congress) gets hold of the device and installs it in drone-like 'watchbirds' that scour the skies and are equipped with the capability to neutralize any potential murderer with what Sheckley calls 'electrical immobilizers' (think powerful tasers from the skies). First, there is one watchbird, who [who?] tests successfully. Before long, the skies are filled with thousands of them . . . and then something goes horribly wrong. Sheckley's story not only adds a What if? reductio ad absurdum twist to the 'Big Brother Is Watching' theme so chillingly portrayed by George Orwell's 1984, but takes it another frightening step and in a different direction that is perhaps more relevant today than ever before. 'Watchbird' is a quintessential example of the cautionary SF story."    What do watchbirds watch? They watch you.    Then there are the less lethal (but still troubling?) watchbirds of "children's book author and illustrator Munro Leaf." "The Watchbirds may be a bit Big Brother for 2011 (they are particularly intimidating when found on adult-targeted brochures, like the one Leaf decorated for the Better Citizens Booth of the League of Women Voters), but Leaf's captions and absurdist drawings soften the nagging. And if you're interested in other ways Leaf endeavored to humorously indoctrinate children into good behavior, you might enjoy. . . ."

e.g., "This etext was produced from Galaxy Science Fiction February 1953. Extensive research did not uncover any evidence that the U.S. copyright on this publication was renewed. Minor spelling and typographical errors have been corrected without note."    Gelsen entered, he saw that the rest of the watchbird manufacturers were already present. There were six of them, not counting himself, and the room was blue with expensive cigar smoke. "Hi, Charlie," one of them called as he came in. The rest broke off conversation long enough to wave a casual greeting at him. As a watchbird manufacturer, he was a member manufacturer of salvation, he reminded himself wryly. Very exclusive. You must have a certified government contract if you want to save the human race. "The government representative isn't here yet," one of the men told him. "He's due any minute." "We're getting the green light," another said. "Fine." Gelsen found a chair near the door and looked around the room. It was like a convention, or a Boy Scout rally. The six men made up for their lack of numbers by sheer volume. The president of Southern Consolidated was talking at the top of his lungs about watchbird's enormous durability. The two presidents he was talking at were grinning, nodding, one trying to interrupt with the results of a test he had run on watchbird's resourcefulness, the other talking about the new recharging apparatus. The other three men were in their own little group, delivering what sounded like a panegyric to watchbird. Gelsen noticed that all of them stood straight and tall, like the saviors they felt they were. He didn't find it funny. Up to a few days ago he had felt that way himself. He had considered himself a pot-bellied, slightly balding saint. . . . Thousands of watchbirds, trying to stop countless millions of murders — a hopeless task. But the watchbirds didn't hope. Without consciousness, they experienced no sense of accomplishment, no fear of failure. Patiently they went about their jobs, obeying each stimulus as it came. They couldn't be everywhere at the same time, but it wasn't necessary to be. People learned quickly what the watchbirds didn't like and refrained from doing it. It just wasn't safe. With their high speed and superfast senses, the watchbirds got around quickly. And now they meant business. In their original directives there had been a provision made for killing a murderer, if all other means failed. Why spare a murderer? | "Despite being published in mainstream magazines like Playboy (which, in the past, took its fiction very seriously), Sheckley has usually been relegated to the genre ghetto, even if at an exalted level, and, yes, new readers will find, on occasion, genre tropes and clichés that will tempt a dismissal. Characters are mostly just moving parts in the idea machine, distinguished solely by rudimentary emotions (eagerness, trepidation, fear), and at this point in your reading life, you may not savor overripe expressions like 'the cauldrons in which wars were brewed,' or need to be informed, as when a watchbird inexplicably appears to thwart an execution, that 'Prisons are large and strong, with many locked doors.' But banalities like these occur rarely, and as the reader progresses through the riotous absurdities, stunning moments of pathos, and some of the most compassionate tales of lost innocents (and innocence) to be found in science fiction, any complaints become merely quibbles. There's a thrilling cumulative effect as the worlds continue to deepen and elements cohere more seamlessly, and by the time we get to the superb final stories, terribly funny and moving tales of loneliness and desire, you can understand why Sheckley has often been compared to Voltaire."    Wednesday, September 22, 2010 The Watchbird When I was a little boy in the forties, the cartoon "The Watchbird" appeared in The Ladies Home Journal, a magazine to which my mother subscribed. The cartoon always featured a bad boy being observed by the Watchbird. The cartoonist would draw and describe the naughty, or whiney, or stingy bad boy being surveilled by the Watchbird, drawn in profile, the boy caught in the sinful act, and then the clincher would come. "This is the Watchbird watching a Sneaky." Named and shamed by his sin. A second bird would be drawn, facing the young reader. The heading read, "This is the Watchbird watching YOU!" Pediatric ethics 101 at the foot of The Ladies Home Journal. What was always most interesting was the naughty activity, which provided the young reader a certain vicarious pleasure. The Watchbird was a simple line-drawn, fat little cartoon bird, peering at the offender and then at me. The assumption that we all bore close scrutiny at six or eight for our dirty little secrets was never really challenged in those days. My mother told me she occasionally spanked me with the hairbrush for no definable reason other than the gut feeling that I deserved it. She was probably right. She was a stay at home mum and probably knew far more than the Watchbird. I don't think the cartoon had any lasting ethical benefit because even in those days, naughty was more interesting to watch than goody-two shoes. I guess it wasn't the enlightened child raising that we see today, but there was never a feeling that I was short changed in the love game. We are still under scrutiny today by Watchbirds of a different name. Posted by jim at 2010-09-22 7:44 PM

Nor do We the Purple necessarily adhere to any common party line, but are often as different from one another as watermelon is from Mongolian grammar. | If someone is one of We the Purple, he or she is not affiliated with any established party, believing that elections ought to be about current issues rather than party lines. | Oh, and by the way, We the Purple's purple is not gay pink.

weavered - I knew a guy when I was growing up named Weaver. He learned when he was young not to tell lies -- mostly because he got bad results lying. He couldn't get away with telling lies -- and always got in trouble for doing so. What he found he could do instead was tell the truth in such a way that those listening to him thought he was lying. I call what he did "weavering."

e.g., Did he dissemble? I think he did, because he was concealing the real nature of what he had done or what he thought -- which was exactly what he said -- by giving his listeners the impression that he did or thought something different. Oh, what a tangled web he weavered.

wee wee'd up - When a person or group gets riled up or anxious before a large event. (ED. Used by President Obama, ~August 20, 2009. Press Secretary Robert Gibbs either beat around the bush or fumbled an explanation of what it was intended to mean, but this description should come close. My impression was that there's a connection with bedwetting: i.e., that those who get "wee wee'd up" are bedwetters. My bet is that President Obama's use of "wee wee'd up" to knock those who disagree with his still-unformed health care reform plan is something he'll live to regret. This superfluous comment will be «invisibled» eventually.)

e.g., The kids are all wee wee'd up the week before school starts.

weed factor - (also _weed paradox_; n.) the increase in strength, intensity, number, intelligence, cunning, invasiveness, vel cet., resulting from human attack, i.e., weeding, trapping, culling, hunting, and so forth. In practice, our weeding and hunting tends to remove from the gene pool those individuals that we humans do not like, or that stand out, or are weak or sick or foolish. The result, of course, is weeds that grow ever stronger and more pernicious, as they learn to grow in places we can't reach or have root systems we cannot easily get to. Applied to animals, we create mouse traps that ultimately create faster, smarter mice; rat poisons that leave only cautious, more intelligent rats; deer hunts that leave us with the best camouflaged, cleverest, hardest-to-kill dear; bear hunts that give us stronger, smarter, more wily bears. Of course, where the weed factor is not high enough, we get overhunting, endangerment, and extinction. Where it's too high, we get kudzu.

e.g., These germs that don't die when doused in antibiotics are the result of a runaway weed factor.
