Each year the Washington Post's Style Invitational asks readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter and supply a new definition.  Here are the 2001 winners:

Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.

Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly.

Foreploy: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.

Giraffiti: Vandalism spray-painted very, very high.

Sarchasm: The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it.

 Inoculatte: To take coffee intravenously when you are running late.

 Hipatitis: Terminal coolness.

 Osteopornosis: A degenerate disease. (This one got extra credit.)

 Karmageddon: It's like, when everybody is sending off all these really bad vibes, right? And then, like, the Earth explodes and it's like, a serious bummer.

Glibido: All talk and no action.

 Dopeler Effect: The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when they come at you rapidly.

 And, the pick of the literature:

 Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid and an asshole.
