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. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....
coprophagous \Kah-pro-fuh-gus\, adjective
coprophagy; noun
coprophagously; adverb
1. Feeding on excrement:
So let's not dredge the coprophagous Cheshire Cat's invisible gut for cross-referenced erudition. We need feed no Ivory Towared, mycelia-minded methodologists. Like any good work of Zen, Cosmicomics is a rational, instant, uncompounded, thing-in-itself.
Kelly Evans, Synopsis of Cosmicomics by Italo Calvino,
Etymology: Greek koprophagos, from kopr- + -phagos -phagous

does lulabelle react to other dogs barking? i was just printing out some stuff from
this website, which is xsbrownie's new fave one, and if you run the mouse over the diff dogs, they bark. Lucius is having a fit here, he thinks there are invisible dogs in his house!
