Ampersand is a weird word, especially for such a simple symbol.

I like the word, I just wish it meant or stood for something else. I don't think it fits.

My 10th grade English teacher, Mr. Dearstyne, always said all words are arbitrary anyway.

I just realized that is a silly thing for an English teacher to say.

He ruled though. He used to roll around in his chair and pretend it was a boat or something. I liked him.
