I found a whole long list of generators and discovered 'terrible minds'.

I've been reading a woman's blog who lives on a barge in England, and think it would be fun to have a blog to do this flash kind of writing exercise since I like to write but I'm not very disciplined.

insane (adj.) http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=insane&allowed_in_frame=0
1550s, from L. insanus "mad, insane; outrageous, excessive, extravagant," from in- "not" (see in- (1)) + sanus "well, healthy, sane." Originally only of persons; of actions, from 1842. Cf. lunatic; and It. pazzo "insane," originally a euphemism, from L. patiens "suffering." Ger. verrückt, lit. pp. of verrücken "to displace," "applied to the brain as to a clock that is 'out of order' " [Buck]. The noun meaning "insane person" is attested from 1786.
