morrow I believe I will broaden my horizons a little bit, we are planning lunch at the Lucky Duck in Taylor, and I really should do some work around the house. I have some things that need to be transplanted, porches, patios and decks that need to be swept...stuff like that there. In the meantime, enjoy this picture of some roses in the back of the house. Good night!
Eponymous -- Adjective. of, relating to, or being one for whom or which something is or is believed to be named. The band will soon be releasing a remastered version of their eponymous debut album.
Did You Know? Eponymous has to do with naming - it comes to us from the Greek adjective eponymos, which is itself from onyma, meaning "name." An eponymous person or thing (i.e., an eponym) might be a mythical ancestor or totem believed to be the source of a clan's name. Today, however, eponymous more typically refers to such individuals as the front man of "Theo's Trio" or the owner of "Sally's Restaurant" (Theo and Sally, respectively). The things that are named for such name-providers are also eponymous. For example, we can speak of "the eponymous Oprah Winfrey Show" as well as "the eponymous Oprah Winfrey."
