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".

Panoply

Noun

    1. A splendid or striking array or arrangement: a panoply of colorful flags.

    2. Ceremonial attire with all accessories: a portrait of the general in full panoply.

    3. Something that covers and protects: a porcupine's panoply of quills.

    4. The complete arms and armor of a warrior.


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....

There is a growing ugly panoply of evil, murderous Islamic terrorists
who remain (even their religion) INVISIBLE to the US gov't
and the corrupt MSM (now PR reps and paid flacks).

Baseball in Cuba, “O” went to see
“Che” photo, the tango, a panoply
Of American blame
With poor Brussels aflame
Stupidity added to tragedy

Oh, yeah. It’s time for my annual message that the pro-life community should celebrate the Annunciation like it’s Christmas. That’s when the Lord came to be with us. Not 9 months later when He was born.

We have a state budget. Only 9 months late. Wolf will not sign it, but will pocket it and it will become law.

He’s already proposed next year’s budget based on the things he didn’t get this year.
