Worte sind nur Worte. The power of words - one speaks,
another remains silent; whose thoughts do you ponder?
Spontaneous, outrageous, radical words
immediately attract attention and reaction.
Words fill the mind of man; they are man - it seems to me.
So, do you have anything to say? :) Well I do, and it's my time to say it.

What is the origin of the phrase "in the nick of time?”
[A] It’s definitely one of the stranger idioms in the language. The language experts are sure that nick here is the same word as that for a small cut or notch.
Sometime round about the 1580s the phrase in the nick or in the very nick began to be used for the critical moment, the exact instant at which something has to take place.
The idea seems to have been that a nick was a narrow and precise marker, so that
if something was in the nick it was precisely where it should be.
It seems that users of the expression pretty soon afterwards found this association of ideas needed some elaboration, so started to add of time to the expression, and that’s the way
it has stayed ever since. These days, the phrase more usually refers to something that only
just happens in time, at the last possible moment.

{Q} “What is the origin of the phrase In the Time of NiCK?”
{A} NCK made it up – ‘cuz he’s a stranger idiom too.

“in the nick or in the very nick began to be used for the critical moment,
the exact instant at which something has to take place.”
Hmmm, methinks for me that critical moment is always now.
And what is this something that has to take place now?
Without doubt methinks it is thought.

So here I am, NiCK w/o the “i’ still living at this critical moment, i.e. now,
the time of NCK, and this is what I be thinking:

Do I have more thoughts to share? Hmmm, . . maybe.
Why?
Because everybody needs something to do . . . something they like doing.
Understandably no one but my God and me is willing to listen to all my thoughts,
so I write some of them with a lot of help from the computer.
I like doing it . . . methinks it may even be educational.
So I be writing to myself for my own entertainment and learning;
And I enjoy the possibility of sharing them. ** NCK 12/30/08
