February 28, 2006, Tuesday, SULTRY
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”. 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. Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Here are some masks for everyone. But I do know your voices, so those who get in trouble, BEWARE!

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!
RULES: You must use the WFTD in a sentence for an A. For a + after your “A,” you must bring in a link of the word usage or something funny, a poem or some prose that will elucidate the word for us.
If you need to know how to link, come to the Subbie’s desk in the front of the class.
I suppose this makes Mike sul-tree.
moaning.
Criminy!!!!!!!!!
Mmmm.... sultry... a great description of the first woman I was with, on that warm spring night off a Cape Cod beach.
Sultry
A heavy sweater in the Summer?
You may need to get a fan,
But if you like to swelter, baby,
Cuddle up, 'cause I'm your man!
Some don't care for perspiration,
Doesn't bother me at all.
Light and airy is the ticket,
(Not confining when I call!)
We can dance and hold each other,
While the thirsty insects whine,
They, tormented by your sweetness,
Held away by meshes fine.
Meshes fine your arms and mine,
Languid suppleness constrain,
I don't mind the heat of passion,
And I don't hear you complain.
Sultry is the word I'm seeking,
Smoky hot the fire in you,
Sultry evenings spent together,
Often sticky mornings too.
Sultry vixen, stoke my fire,
Let us warm to passions new,
Let my arms enfold the treasure,
While my eyes are filled with you.

Nice beads. What did you do to earn them, huh? LOL!
They are lovely beads, SG. Thank you ever so much. Our float is almost finished . . . LOL!

Indian River refuses deal on Prayer
Amazing, a PUBLIC school district board standing up against the ACLU over prayer in school........Who woulda thunk it?
Where I come from in So. Cal., they're getting ten inches of rain. Sheesh!
A++++ for you.
A++++ for you, too!
Criminy? This word hasn't been used before. I think it's better than sordid. LOL!
My comment was in reference to the time you posted the thread - not to the word :)
A++++ for you, and someday I hope to hear the whole story, tD.
A++++ for you!
Great article. The ACLU will take them to court. Too bad!
Oh, okay. I breathe easier at night after the vaporizer has vaporized me. I think better if I don't have to use the Albuteral. Makes me shake. Not like there's anything inside the old noggin' anyway. LOL!
