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. ;-)
Practice makes perfect.....post on....
I've tried to be understanding.....but it does get on my nerves. Well she'll have plenty of time with her friends this weekend.
We're attending a weekend long campout/pig roast/BBQ/PARTY at friends and I plan on sneaking home for a couple hours of peace on Sunday afternoon!!!
Brown is not exactly one of my fave colors and I don't wear it often, and when I do I pair either with pink or gold/copper.
I'm sure you are looking forward next week to get the routine in full gear.
Watching this hurricane I keep thinking of the first week of school last year ....we had so much rain that they closed schools for 2 days after only 2 days........and that was before Isabel closed them for a few more days later in the month.
Thank you - that is nice of you to say......... my Marine was nice but he prefers my hair longer....... no way in the humid summer of Houston!
i didn't think mine was so different, but i got a lot of compliments on the different cut and color when i was at the various kids schools this past week. this is since going to the new person. it is a little shorter and a bit lighter than it was.
I had forgotten that Gabby........ it was a strange beginning to the school year last year!
It's so nice to find a good hair stylist.........
Did the guys disappear? Have we bored them into thoughts of suicide?
Mahoning!
(Headed to the beach with Mrs. F. today)
well it affirmed my decision to leave my beloved conservative hairdresser, which was very hard for me to do. i had just gotten so dissatisfied with what he was doing as far as cutting my hair. i guess it is possible to get into a rut with anyone. sometimes you need a fresh eye to look at you and see what they think.
lipstick and hairdos will do it everytime!
Thanks.Yeah, old Zell gave 'em He**, didn't he !?! :^D
how fun for yunz. guess we won't be pinged to any genitalia posts if you are gone though... ; )
Well, if I talk about football you go apesh*t - .....
Tough.
nah, i ping you and arghy and dubs and hobbes to all the football posts! but so help me if HD starts talking about baseball i will go into a coma.....
I have similar feelings about basketball.......I LOVE college basketball but literally HATE the NBA.........
agreed. i love college basketball and despise the NBA. that is why it was so hilarious to be called a KOBOT on those threads~!
Cheaper than ruffies and totally untraceable...thanks for the tip!!!
That is a lovely prayer.
Guess again. < |:)~
