Steve's Video Of The Day: "Albatross"!
Def.:- (figurative) something that hinders or handicaps; "she was an albatross around his neck".
Def.:- The word albatross is sometimes used to mean an encumbrance, or a wearisome burden. It is an allusion to Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (1798).
---
"Handicap, encumbrance, burden"?
Not this beautiful "bird"! "Hey", who says there are no "Albatrosses" in Alaska?
("Learning To Fly", another "gem" from "Tom Petty and his Heartbreakers"!)
