Word For The Day, Wednesday, 3/12/14
;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".
eschaton; noun
end of the world, end of time, climax of history Etymology:
Etymology: "divinely ordained climax of history," 1935, from Gk. eskhaton, neut. of eskhatos (see eschatology).
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....
That’s mildly disturbing.
yes amazon has a 30 day return policy, but it didn’t break the first time until 4 mo after we got it. they have directed me to kohler and hopefully they will provide a new one.
I have nothing to say about Crosby. The caps suck beyond belief, have ZERO defense. Stick a fork in them cuz they are done. There is no confidence in the GM, he has stuck with this group through thick and thin, mostly THIN. If George McFee isn’t fired after this season then he has naked pix of Ted doing something with farm animals, IMO.
When you assume the innate “goodness” of the human condition,
and therefore assume that bad choices and behaviors are in response to environment,
then it “makes sense” to want to create the environment which evokes that “goodness” all the time.
Of course, the people creating that environment are innately good and can be fully entrusted with all the power necessary to create it.
Now, back in Realville as God created it - man is FALLEN, innately sinful, and cannot be trusted with power over his fellow man.
I love giving myself an earworm....grrrr.
In the middle of a love song, too.
Yes, I meant with the manufacturer, primarily, but if Amazon could help you lean on them, that would be nice.
Sorry you are too dis-spirited to even make any Cindy jokes.
Yep.
The Thousand Year Reich.......
Nietzsche’s “ubermensch” as well....
The police department and the first selectmans office aren’t doing much other than fielding phone calls from very pissed off people all over the country.
I have never had any dealings with this officer that i can recall. Being a fisherman in a nice Connecticut shoreline town seems to make one a target of the cops, too, so i’ve gotten to know a lot of the cops, he’s not one I remember. Those I’ve spoken too also speak highly of him, well, they did before this incident.
Honestly, from the talk around town, they cannot put this guy back on the streets or he’ll get shot on day 1 he comes back from his extended workers comp leave he’s on right now. People are THAT pissed.
I was at the quarter finals for the division 2 high school hockey championships last night that my “son in law” was playing with, and while outside having a smoke, a person from the opposing team even mentioned this incident, and offered support, as in, “if you guys need help down here, give me a call, i have about a dozen guys who are ready to go” kind of thing.
I swear it feels like my town is becoming ready to be the new Lexington of the American revolution.
That’s the bomb!
yep. not a cindy joke to be had.
that is wild—but good to hear that the people are ready to NOT sit for it. hopefully the guy is smart enough to know he’s a walking target and will just lay low.
Kohler appears aware of the problem, they are going to send out replacement parts for the inner workings of the handle. i asked the woman if others have had the problem and she said she actually has the faucet in her kitchen, and has had no problem, but they are aware that there have been problems and she claims that these parts will fix it. We will see.
Why does being a fisherman make you a target for the police?
I could see the game warden wanting to make sure you have licenses.
Which is why It follows that our framed Government (not as it actually exists in the moment, sadly) os the better of all others, as it is built to constrain the baser impulses borne from the exercise of power.....
Well put Mr.B.!
Heard next door to the Bow Bells in London: “ ‘E peed on Sibelius and eschaton Zerobama.”
That sounds promising. They are responsive, as they should be for something that expensive.
What I posted was my current “explanation” of liberalism.
I believe it to be accurate with respect to understanding how the world was created, why it is the way it is, and ultimately, what the “cure” is (and is not).
Same reason Gibson Guitars is the subject of armed raids by DFWS...
Got a black uniform and a silver badge
Playin’ cops for real/playin’ cops for pay
Let’s ride, lowride
.......
The left newspapers might whine a bit
But the guys at the station they don’t give a shit
Dispatch calls “Are you doin’ something wicked?”
“No siree, Jack, we’re just givin’ tickets”
As we ride, ride, how we ride
Let’s ride, lowride
literally LOLed! A++++
i have taken a lot of crap both from xshub and mr bahrami our contractor, for wanting a faucet that expensive.
