Word For The Day, Tuesday, 7/2/02
The Verbivores | 7/2/02 | Teacher

Posted on 07/02/2002 6:59:46 AM PDT by RikaStrom

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....


temerarious \tem-uh-RAIR-ee-us\, adjective:
temerariously; adverb
temerariousness; noun

1. Recklessly or presumptuously daring; rash.
2. Unreasonably adventurous; despising danger; rash; headstrong; audacious; reckless; heedless

I have confessed myself a temerarious theologian, and in that passage from boyhood to manhood I ranged widely in my search for some permanently satisfying Truth.
--H. G. Wells, The New Machiavelli

Etymology: Latin temerarius, from temere. Date: 1532.

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here is my example with WFTD.

While he noted that the circuit's rulings automatically are blocked, or "stayed," for 45 days to give parties time to appeal, he said he wanted to clear up any confusion in the national furor that followed the decision.

"It was a bit of fire control. It's kind of a squirt of a little coolant on the fire until it calms down," said Goodwin, appointed to the bench in 1971 by President Nixon. "I didn't consider it caving in to pressure."

He said the court has been flooded with messages from school districts, in addition to "mindless telephone and e-mail traffic that was tying up the clerk's office and some of the other judges."

An athiest’s agenda most temerarious
With a decision that made us furious
“Mindless calls”
In hallowed halls
This court takes PC to serious!

What really fries my backside about this judge is that he has the never to say his opinion was correct, when in a year, the Supreme Court has overturned 4 of his opinions. The 9th Circus Court is the most overturned court in the nation. The liberals and their temerarious fight to outlaw everything except what they like is going to turn this great place into a nation of wimps and whiners.

Wwwaaaaa, he hurt my feelings, I’m going to sue! Waaaaaaaaa!

Hillary is grossly evil. This is 144 times more than Tom Douchel's standard evil.

The new $1.50 a pack cigarette tax increase is going to prove to have been a very temerarious decision on the par of mayor Bloominidiot!

Oh this is just going to backfire on NYC. They are going to lose the tax revenue because people are going to go online to get their smokes. You'll see an increase in "make your own" and then what's going to happen?

A+

How can it backfire? Don't you guys get it?

Only one of two things can Happen.

1. Revenue goes up, the Mayor wins.

2. Revenue goes down, the Mayor claims less people smoke, the Mayor wins....
