Write about - Waiting

Weighting? Is that like the butcher holding his thumb on the scale while he is weighing out your lamb chops? Maybe it’s putting sandbags in the back of your pickup after a deep snow. Or, I suppose, it could be adding weight to the hook with the bacon on it to get to the 6-foot gray shark faster (after all, if he is full of bacon, perhaps he won’t eat the kids, Andy!).

In my case, weighting is what I do when I get on the scale at the doctor’s office – well, maybe that’s de-weighting since I take everything out of m pockets including the lint.

Personally, I am not in favor of homonyms.
