Languages must be difficult to learn when there are words with
the same spelling and pronunciation yet have different mean
ings. Take "p o st" for example. A post is upended in a posthole
to hold up a building, a fence, or corral. It just sits there like a
rock, hence the expression, "dumber than a post".
The word "outpost" became shortened whether referring to
a wilderness fort or a military encampment. Undoubtedly our
troops slithering around in Bosnia's squalid conditions would
gladly trade their tents for something as upscale as housing con
structed with posts. At those temporary quarters, soldiers are
also posted as guards and rosters of assigned duties are posted.
Policing up their living quarters must be like trying to keep muck
out of a barn.
A "post position" refers to the start of a horse race. When the
pony express carried the mail, there were any number of riders
posted at intervals along a route. There were also persons posted
to provide fresh horses for couriers. Maybe it was those riders'
often sore posteriors that created the term of "posting" which
refers to a rider's up and down motion on the back of a trotting
horse.
The post office still posts letters to which I carefully affix a
stamp. We also post notices to warn against trespassing. Or we
post names on published lists, such as missing persons, criminals
and even sporting events. I post reminders of things that need
to be accomplished or are needed. And my calendar is marked
with more chicken scratching than a cave dweller's wall, another
form of posting.
For pencil-pushers like myself, bookkeeping stats aren't posted,
they are scribbled in ink. Getting behind on that type of record
keeping is the postmark of a postponer.
"P o st" refers to "after in time" such as the delaying tactics
employed by our politicians in getting the national budget on
line. Quicker results might have been accomplished had guards
been posted outside locked doors wherein the Congress and the
President had no opportunity for golf. Limited post-holiday stale
morsels might have given post-haste to the process also. Now
we have to listen to commentators' postmortems about what
should have been accomplished. Perhaps we need to postulate
ways to improve efficiency of our representatives in managing
this country.
Post-holidays blues can hardly be compared with postpartum
depression. In the first instance, the hectic times are over, and
in the latter, they are just beginning. Finding room for a newborn
babe and all the paraphernalia is more difficult than trying to
find somewhere to store an increasing amount of holiday
decorations.
Once that holiday glitter is laid to rest, the downside of star
ting a new year means inventories and tax returns. But hey, if
you haven't made those New Year resolutions public, you aren't
compelled to carrying out those well-intended pledges. Just don't
write them down in a diary like a former Oregon senator, if your
thoughts aren't pure as our recent snow.
