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 of 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....

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!
Here is my example of the WFTD
Though tomorrow is Tax Freedom Day, for the first time in the last 10 years, don't expect to see too much coverage of it. It appears that while during the Clinton Administration government power, as expressed by how long you work to feed the Nanny State Leviathan, waxed considerably it appears to have waned by one third, of the 12 days it increased. That is correct, even though he was handed an economy rapidly heading into the crapper the BUSH Administration has rolled back Tax Freedom Day, by four days in two years.For all of the whiny little pusbags i see bitching about big Government in the Bush era, he has put up. Now can you all SHUT UP!

Since It's Friday, Everyone who shows gets an automatic A+,
Plus, did anyone else think it was MichaelJacksonesque creepy, when Mr.Miyagi shows Daniel how to Wax On with his Left hand, then watches as he wax off with his right?

Homework:
The House Judiciary is populated by too many pompous, overbearing, elitist, highly-prejudiced, racist waxman clones .... Let us hope after this coming election their influence will begin to wane.
(Aside to mean-spirited, low-grade-giving, ex-subby-Texas-Teach:)
"See. This is how it should be graded....."
(Sits back, big smug grin, knowing that a "honest, decent, trustworthy, and thoroughly reliable" fellow croq is grading on Friday.....)
