The origin of the word "goof" and "goofing"
I just read on the internet that the origin of this word "goofing" is not known.
Well let me tell you internet: you should bone up on your Wampanoag
vocabulary. In a history of Woods Hole or, near abouts, a book
on the Falmouth tribes, it said that goofing meant "to speak with the spirits through a hole in the stone wall."
