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....

The enemy has been engaged, and Hitlery got boooooed and we brought out the “Daisy Cutters”! As we continue our battle, remember why we are fighting. The Eagle is awake and demanding retribution. As our President said, “We will not negotiate!”. We will not forget. Please keep those that we have lost, and those who will fight for us, in your prayers. Also too, remember we seem to be the most hated people on the planet, so don’t relax your guard

I didn't think you would, but your body whipped by me so darned fast! Are you a speed runner?

[hobbes1]

Oh, Pet, Could you kindly go investigate the strange noises coming from the detention room?

[white rose]

Speaking of Agitprop, you all might get a good dose of schadenfreude from reading how Dubious Duopoly of Green and Clinton managed to flush the NY Democratic party right down the tubes.

[doubled]

After reading this piece of BS given by x42, the duopoly of political parties in this country has drawn some distinct lines. It's the old "It's somebody elses fault" routine.

[VRWCmember]

can you just do my christmas shopping for me, while there?

Sure, just send me whichever credit card you want me to use. I promise to keep all purchases properly segregated. And I'll pick up something special for you at The Coffee Beanery.

[hobbes1]

A most excellent dose.....

If i were able to grade that would be A+ mat'l.

[CholeraJoe]

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

[CholeraJoe]

You and Calvin could be building snow goons.

[xsmommy]

[Slip18]

Cyber was in a different "strip volleyball" room. I think they are comparing notes. They're playing a little duopoly, I guess . . .

[Argh]

Looking here, you'll notice that Britney claims to trip, burp and fart just like everyone else does! (in the second-last sentence)

[Slip18]

Morning, CJ! Do you have snow?

[CholeraJoe]

are you saying it is snowing, cj?

Just a flake here and there for now. 23 degrees.

[xsmommy]

[xsmommy]

[xsmommy]
