Word of the Day > Word of the Day - Internet

The Internet - Senator Ted Stevens' all-purpose noun, adjective, verb and adverb to describe the global network of TCP/IP networks, its content, and usage.

Used in a sentence: "When I Internet back onto the Internety Internet I'll Internet you an Internet Internetly." Or as Stevens put it:

I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o’clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why? Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially.

They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the internet. And again, the internet is not something you just dump something on. It’s not a truck. It’s a series of tubes.
