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.
Subbie Slip has her whip, handcuffs and legcuffs today.
The rest of the stuff is locked up in my drawer. I’m just letting all the new students know that we behave as if we were ladies and gentlemen in here. Those two words “as if” can get you an A if you make the subbie laugh.
Adjective:
Pronunciation: mal/ee/a/bal
Etymology: Middle Earth
1) Capable of being extended or shaped by beating with a hammer or by the pressure of rollers
2) Adaptable, pliable.
SYN: plastic, pliant, ductile.
RULES: You must use the WFTD in a sentence for an A. For an A + after your “A,” you must bring in a link of the word usage or something funny, a poem or some prose that will elucidate the word for us.
If you need to know how to link, come to the Subbie’s desk in the front of the class. Also, if I like your sentence, poem or prose, you just may get an A++++. Depends on my mood. F quadruple minuses are usually saved for Arghie, but it could just happen to you.
Wake up, wee ones!
Class already? Just how malleable do you think we are?
Wake up! It's a new day!
Good morning, tD! You're No. 1!
OK. Seems the RNC is beginning to show that they will be less malleable on lax immigration now that so many complaints, screams, and refusals to donate are coming from grass roots. Seems their donations are off, and the biggest complaints are illegal immigration (open borders), and out of control spending.
Well, that certainly changes things! Dreams should be more malleable, and we could enjoy them more.
But then if my brother-in-law found out they were malleable, he would try to mail me his.
I was hanging about cause it's raining outside.
To a Chinese father, a malleable man is one who is suitable to wed his daughter.
Morning, all!
Re: Miers, are senators malleable?
Can Bush prod and cajole? Are they rally-able?
No support is in sight
On the left or the right
Are the "Yea!" votes sufficiently tally-able?
So called republicans like GWB really test the malleablilty of conservatives, especially in light of this: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1508712/posts
excellent, truthy.
Malleate me. I've been a baaaaad fleshlump.
(I hope nobody beat me to it!)
Just dang, tD. A++++ for you.
You're No. 2.
And you get an A++++, NnB!
So it's a "new day"? Here it ist still so dark I need all the lights on to see. The severe snow didn't come, but it is raining here and more dreary than an Edgar Allen Poe story. New day -- BAH!! If this day were malleable it would be sunny and bright, with a glorious showing of fall leaves. Time for my workout. See ya later........
Why don't you come in out of the rain, Sweetie?
A++++ for you?
