You Say Potato and I Say Po-tah-tow

A few words from me, your holistic health counselor:

de•tox•i•fy verb \ dē-ˈtäk-sə-ˌfī\
: to remove a poisonous or harmful substance

def•e•cate verb \ˈde-fi-ˌkāt\
: to pass solid waste from the body

In language these are what are known as synonyms, as in, “I wouldn’t go in there if I were you; Marvin just detoxified his brains out.”

Sorry, there was a copy of Yoga Times at the dentist.

P.S. I wrote this lying on my back to get a sense of how Michelangelo felt while painting the ceiling of his bathroom.
