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....

--Sir T. Browne.

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here is my example with WFTD.

Collier County Circuit Judge Ted Brousseau set a $50,000 bond for Farouk Murad, 66, at his first appearance Sunday. Murad posted $50,000 cash Monday afternoon, Collier County sheriff's officials said. The judge didn't seize Murad's passport, investigators said.

Marco Island police had recommended bond be denied.

Dear heaven what is going on, on Marco Island?? This is a second Saudi muslim to be arrested for rape on that island. This particular Saudi was fairly high up the pecking order so the judge sets a low bond and doesn’t size his passport. This pervert who raped a little 13 year old girl has left the country. Any takers as to whether we’ll ever seen this slug go to trial?

A religion of peace and harmony my arse!
It’s perversion and sickness, rape and hate
Does the judge feel any compunction in this farce
For allowing this pervert to escape his judgement date.

Every day we shove and push
To be the first on the short bus
Xsmommy, hobbes and dubs
Wetbars, closets and beer tubs
If you really think you’re strong
Maybe you can ride along
I don’t want to cause no fuss
But here it is – the new Short Bus!

Short bus, short BUS
Short bus, short BUS

Bet you things don’t get too far
Before camle’s got a new cigar
Argh is running for his life
From ending up with the ex-wife
Gabz is getting far from fat
Swimming round in the beer vat
There’se no rules, and there’s no muss
Ridin’ on this here Short Bus

Short bus, short BUS
Short bus, short BUS


Singing:

WotsamoddaU hey,
Gotta no respect, whatta you think you do,
Why you looka so sad?
It's-a not so bad, it's-a nice-a place,
Ah, Shaddap You Face.


Well, I don’t know why I came here today
I got the feeling that things ain’t goin my way.
I’m so scared in case I fall up the stairs
And that noise th only thing I can hear
Hobbes to the left of me, XS to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the closet with you.

Yes, I’m stuck in thecloset with you,
And I’m wondering what it is I should do.
It’s so hard to setup Argh with my ex,
like some people only are about sex.
Hobbes to the left of me, XS to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the closet with you.

Well, you started off with learning,
And you find yer stomach’s turnin’ man.
And your friends they all come crawlin’,
Swim in the beer vat and say, “Please, please.”

Trying to make martini’s for all,
But I can see nobody’s drinkin at all.
Is it cool to go to chomp on a big cigar?.
Poor Gus is out polishing the car
Hobbes to the left of me, XS to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the closet with you.

Well, you started off with learning,
And you find yer stomach’s turnin’ man.
And your friends they all come crawlin’,
Swim in the beer vat and say, “Please, please.”

Here I am, stuck in the closet with you.

Yes I’m, stuck in the closet with you,
Stuck in the closet with you,
Here I am, stuck in the closet with you.

Tony Blakely should feel compunction
Hoping for a wars resumption.
What is he thinking?
Or is he drinking?
Sounds like both countries need an ass whumpin'.
