Words: pony, n.

"I KNOW I was peeved, in the Beatles' early days, at my mother's saying `it's yes, not yeah'," said an acquaintance, "but I am maddened by my children's use of words from Clueless and Friends - might as well be Urdu. And then the other day, I heard one of them say on the telephone, `Let's get a pony.' A pony! First I knew of it - no mention of a field or food.
