Strange Word Week 4

What?  It's already Saturday?!  What happened to Friday?  . . . Oh well, in lieu of yesterdays miss, here is a special weekend make-up post.  I'll continue the reader-suggested theme week of strange words:

hagiology
noun
-the branch of literature dealing with the lives and legends of saints


This would be way funnier if it really were the study of hags.  (It definitely sounds like it is.)  I'm sure there would be plenty of hags to study, too, like subway hags, underpass hags, and famous "hags-to-riches" stories.  They could have spin-off areas of expertise, too, like hobology and vagabondology.  The educational possibilities are endless!

Have a good weekend!

I wish it were a study of sea hags. :)

hags are far more interesting than saints. We'll have to work on this.
