When ABC anchorman Peter Jennings died this past weekend, a ridiculous amount of obituaries and tributes (New York Times, Washington Post, Financial Times, AP, CBS News, and a host of others) all used one word to describe him: urbane. Despite the obvious plagiarizing, it's a good word, and one that aptly described my favorite news anchor. What cool word would you like to see in your obituary? Mine's erudite.
