In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day".
Blarney
Noun
2. Deceptive nonsense.
Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.
The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.
The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-)
Practice makes perfect.....post on....

Roll Call.
This is no Blarney! Our grandson received his Appointment and admission to the AF Academy yesterday! He reports June 30 to study cyber security. This is the oldest child of our youngest son.
I kissed the Blarney Stone on my honeymoon. True story.
It’s quite a treacherous journey to the top of the castle it is in. Spiral staircases with narrowing steps made of stone and traffic going up and down simultaneously. You move over to let someone pass and you have less step to step on.
I thought the word was “Bernie”. But that’s fairly close.
Congratulations! Very exciting news.
Cool.
Not Bernie..........that would be Commie talk not flattery.
Congratulations!
Though...I think the new blarney castle is in the USA.
A+++ I would love to go there!
Use it in a sentence, given that Blarney is the antonym of Frank:
“Blarney Frank blows smoke (and his boyfriend).”
congrats to him!
sounds way too scary, don’t think I could do that.
Mrs. Clinton can spew out the blarney
Spouting lies like a female Jay Carney
Prefers pantsuit to skirt
She is older than dirt
Just a dull leftist dinosaur; Barney?
A+++ so, Barney didn’t make an honest man out of him?
A++++ no American lives lost in Libya on her watch, no soiree...
