Word of the Day Wednesday

I went searching for an interesting word from Merriam-Webster today. Normally I just use what is listed for today's word of the day, but I went back to the 17th on the Merriam-Webster web site and this is what I found.

omnium-gatherum • \ahm-nee-um-GA-thuh-rum\ - Noun: a miscellaneous collection (as of things or persons). Example Sentence: The book, a collection of short stories, is an omnium-gatherum of works by various writers.
