Computer Vision Lab Lines: 14 The most obvious word that is neither 'hungry' nor 'angry' is the word 'ungryphon-like'. Other words that are lest often used are: 'pangryphon' (since one seldom wishes to contemplate more than one gryphon), 'angryphon' (this was last used in error by the last gryphon in England who said that England had not been the same since it had become an angryphon country [note that most people excused the gryphon from failing to remember that England was not yet angrypon since he was still there because it is well known that the only way a gryphon can live with himself is by ignoring himself]), 'nongryphon' (a predicate that is practically synonomous with 'true') ---------------------------------- BOB (note: gryphon is a recognized spelling of griffin in Webster's and Chamber's)
