The mulatto usurper refers to Pakistan, in private as .. Pawky

I’ve never heard this word but it reminds me of snarky so I like it!
The Giants’ detractors are talky
Sarcastic, disparaging, pawky
But fans of Falcon and Niner
Found out who was finer
As did those Cheeseheads from north of Milwaukee
This is the game you play where you try to roll a ball past your cat, and he rolls it back to you.

All you wordsmiths may be interested in this movement taking root in Wisconsin. Actually, the lady featued in the article could be called pawky because she’s a librarian and she’s found a clever new way to get books circulating. http://www.jsonline.com/news/wisconsin/thinking-outside-the-box-with-little-libraries-j43rv4u-137866938.html
Oh, good. I was wondering where you have been. I thought maybe you had too much Newt or something.

Aww, that’s sweet. Sadly, I have left behind books for my Nook Tablet. I can sit in my own home and download new books. I will not be giving up my Nook. A+++
I posted my library story here: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2836492/posts
gee, I thought it was when your cat pawed your keys and went joyriding in your new car.
But, what will you do with your abandoned books? This is a way to share them with your neighbors.
Paw Paw in Lee County, Ill. When you have to repeat the the name of your town it makes you feel pawky.
Now some of you may not know what a paw paw is and that's your loss since there is no finer fruit on earth in my estimation, I'm speaking of the native kind not the artificially jinned up nursery sort. Paw paws also were called “Indiana bananas”.
My books alway look like new when I am done, I lend them to my MIL, then mail them to my son. Others I use for gifts when someone is in the hospital. I, also, donate to my local library and a couple of Book Nook Corners, that my hairdresser and doctor host in their establishments. I lent so many books to one of my friends, she has bought a Kindle Fire to keep her reading. I have had a Kindle, now I have a Nook Tablet. I won’t be having real books to dispose of any more.
xshub was on a newt tear over the weekend, sees him as incapable of winning and concluded there’s nothing to be done about it and the bigger question is, will SU lose again tonight? you can see what his priorities are....
With that star SU player on academic suspension, I would say losing again is a good possibility
