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”.

Roil

Tr. Verb

    1. To make (a liquid) muddy or cloudy by stirring up sediment.
    2. To displease or disturb; vex: My roommate's off-putting habits began to roil me.

In. Verb

    To be in a state of turbulence or agitation.


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....

I saw that too - when will cigarettes and booze be free too? Aren't those social choices too? Sheesh

And doesn't Planned parenthood give out free birth control already?

I’ve been in the woods in the fog and mist since about 7:00, but I returned just after 9:00 to see Pat Caddell on Fox making several remarks comparing Odumbass to the Carter idiot in a disgusted voice...

The remarks of the uninformed
Earthwatchers, willingly blinded
And others who don’t have a clue
But who follow along, likeminded

Cause the pot of reason to roil-
And alas, from all their stirring
Of phantom fears of dread pollution
The regulations just keep occuring

I think they need a wilderness trip-
Leave their Ipads and Birkenstocks-
Live in the woods for a year or so
Making fire with sticks and rocks...

Excellent! A+++ Hope you were locked and loaded, had your eye out for that cougar. We had a few inches of snow this morning.....seems to be done for now. I can get out to the store soon...after cleaning off my car.

No, I don’t recall one. I roomed with Gabz and Rika, but don’t even have a pic of us together. Neo was there and DanfromMichigan. Some others as well. Lot’s more FReepers than we had in class at the time.

It was quite a night for sure. Our vendor rented a party van for us and treated us fine. He bought the hats, too. I’ll have to wear it home cause it would get crushed in the luggage.
