Word for the Day for Wednesday, November 12, 2008

The Word for Today is Adaptability.

Last time, I took in the basics of this word. Let's delve a bit deeper this time.

The ultimate in adapting is a lizard called the Chameleon, who can even look like his/her surroundings. From the linked story, that is only the beginning of their adaptability.

I've been reading and hearing about a human form of Chameleon called the Ninja. (Note: The linked article may not be the best, but it was one of the funnier ones). I've met a few of these people. Even sat down and talked for a while. Really quite gentle people who will do everything in their power to avoid harming a bystander, even if it requires them getting hurt themselves.
