Personifying a Word

Now that you are well versed in type categories, anatomy and typography, I would like you to choose a word from this list. When you do, please put your name next to that word so that no one else uses it. What are you going to do with the word? I would like you to take a stab at personifying that word. Huh? I want you to make the word look or feel like what it represents. This is a little abstract, but I think it should be fun! You may use any typaface you want (except webdings or other fonts that are composed only of glyphs) to type your word. Then you can change tracking, placement, rotation of letters, colors, you can even use the pen tool to add a simple effect to it... say a tail, top hat, etc. Some examples can be found along the right. Just don't use these words!
