About this product
Product Information
Do you have any idea where the word nerd came from, or twerp ? This dictionary starts where ordinary references beg off. Discover that bad hair day was originated by California teenagers in the early 1990s. Learn that bikini comes from the name of a Pacific island used in the 1940s for atomic bomb tests. Learn why a flight data recorder is called a black box -- even though it's orange.Product Identifiers
