"Bodacious," huh? No, I don't write the headlines. I would imagine the more accurate bit of 80s argot would be "fresh." Still, I always liked "bodacious" because I could imagine its etymology to be improbably but appropriately descended from "Boadicea."

Maybe it should have been spelled "bow-dacious."
