    If you find one let me know, in the meantime wordweb is a good free thesaurus , and a decent dictionary, though i think the guy who wrote it paraphrased the definitions from a differnt dictionary. they just aren't as exact.

    I use a dictionary on paper. Not one of those abridged ones either, oh no.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
    -- WW2 for the l33t

    There&#39;s also Merriam-Webster. (www.m-w.com)
    The color of this signature is really blue. If you see otherwise, please adjust your monitor settings.

    i am something with much more a detailed and accurate definition (oxfords has a good reputation and i very much trust) meriam-webster (probably american..could be wrong) im not too happy about as some words have a different meaning on the other side of the atlantic and that probably for pilitical reasons too..who know&#33;&#33;&#33;...cant be trusted in my opinion...buts that is just my opinion so shoot me down for it (if u feel differently )

    Zedaxax recommendation is very good though so i shall stick to that for now untill something better comes up.
