If you mean like, "organization", then no. Even though we should, since the original spelling was with a Z, rather than it being an americanisation like "color".

Somethin' filled up
my heart with nothin',
someone told me not to cry.

But now that I'm older,
my heart's colder,
and I can see that it's a lie

Hmm. I was just curious if it was omitted in most all of your vocabulary.

Zebra's the only word I can think of. But then again I was never good at Scattergories.

There aren't that many common words that use it. 'Zoo' and 'zygote' are the only ones I can think of off-hand. But there are plenty scientific ones that use it.

So it's mostly used for latin or greek based words? What about pizza?

On my last two episodes of the first season of My Name Is Earl.

Exactly, I should have known it was for latin and greek words. Pizza is another one, but isn't that just a word stolen from the Italians?

Got a choice of films to watch today.

This Is Spinal Tap
Repo Man
Quadrophenia
Falling Down
Akira

Not sure which I'll watch first.

Falling Down or Spinal Tap

Guess it'll be Falling Down then. Probably Spinal Tap afterwards.
