iniquity and propiniquity. . . coincidence? YUP!

According to Dictionary.com feckless \FEK-lis\ adjective is todays word. its a good one but i like yesterdays word better!

propinquity \pruh-PING-kwih-tee\, noun:
1. Nearness in place; proximity.
2. Nearness in time.
3. Nearness of relation; kinship.

Propinquity derives from Latin propinquitas, from propinquus, near, neighboring, from prope, near.

Schniederbacherston was arrested based only on 3 accounts of propinquity. There was the propinquity of the events; she had argued with Randelstienersting mere hours before he was found in the garden with a garden gnome stabbed through his heart. Also there was the propiniquitous situation where she would inherit a small fortune from the death of her cousin Randal Randalstienersting. Lastly the propiniquity of the location of Randelstienersting's dead body; the carrot and tomato patch he was discovered in was 23 miles from his own garden, which happened to be Janiel Schniederbacherston's garden where she grew 34% of the villages produce. Disturbing indeed.

Now if you'll excuse me I have to see a man about tickets to an organ concert.
