Word For The Day, Friday, 9/3/04
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".
POSIT: verb. (pa-zit) tr.v. pos·it·ed, pos·it·ing, pos·its
1. To assume the existence of; postulate. See Synonyms at presume. 2. To put forward, as for consideration or study; suggest: “If a book is hard going, it ought to be good. If it posits a complex moral situation, it ought to be even better” (Anthony Burgess). 3. To place firmly in position.
Etymology: [From Latin positus, past participle of pnere, to place. See position.]
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. ;-)

I think it's a serious case of mommy burn-out. about the only thing that has maintained my sanity the past 2 weeks has been feeding my friend's animals. I've been spending a couple hours a day at her place and Jax has been having a ball playing with all of her cats.
well you either have had more sleep or more coffee than i have, bc i never even thought of that!
Gabby have I missed something - or has the constant rain and sighting of Noah's Ark caused your problems of the past few weeks?
Excerpt...
More than one member of the Collective marveled at his ability to attract beautiful women. “It was incredible how he always had a beautiful woman at his side,” recalls Barbara Branden. “I think it was the attraction of his intellectual power and probably his reserve.
