I Learned a New Word Today

I Learned a New Word Today - Yes I did. It was the word used as the title of a really slick magazine that is sent around by a non-profit bunch that dabbles in genealogy and stuff like that. It was on the table in the doctor's office. The word that I learned is probably quite unusual and not expressed all that often - but maybe it is of big importance in the lives of many, many people. Although I may believe that to be true, I have personally not yet used "my" new word until right here and now. I wonder if anyone here knows what it means. "Sirte." * * * * * * * * * * Interesting... It DOES make me wonder how it could be that I, the most widely read and interesting writer of wonderful topics in the entire world could screw up the spelling of a nice new word just now learned. The real word I learned is not "sirte." It is "STIRPE." So, @JudyEV, you were right on target - much as I was way off target. Such is life when a guy has just had his 6th birthday celebration. Yes, I know that I was mistaken about that one, too. The celebration not only came years too late, it celebrated the WRONG birthday. This one was supposed to have been my 9th birthday - not my 6th. Oh well. We will try again next time - OK? Image: Pixabay
