The Smothers Brothers used to do a bit in which Dick (the more serious brother) introduced a song they were about to perform as being poignant. Tommy then looked puzzled about the word and Dick explained that it meant “pregnant with feeling.” Tommy then said that the song was about a girl who was “six months poignant.” – Rick DeNatale My blog on Ruby [http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/](http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/) ---
