Word For The Day, Thursday, November 4, 2004
Thursday, November 4, 2004 | Slip 18

Posted on 11/04/2004 4:17:28 AM PST by Slip18

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. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....


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.

New WFTD:

Antinomy– noun

This word is pronounced an-tin-emee

Etymology: French or German.


1) Opposition of one law or rule to another law or rule: contradiction within a law.

the AG hospital is amazing. Bitty Baby had to go there bc her arm came off an she was great when she came back, but her hair is plastic so i imagine the coif must have been quite an improvement. i am assuming it was Kristen since you mentioned braids?

Chicken, creamed corn, green chilies, Monterey Jack, half&half, garlic, onion, cumin. Our rain is gone, but the temp is headed down into the 40s.

We are leaving tomorrow, late morning. CG is going in to work for a while, and I've got to take LulaBelle to "camp". We are excited to get away for a while. We've been dealing with CG's dad's death, then the anxiety of the election. Time for some fun!!!

Did you fire up the dishwasher before you opened the beer? Or did you forget the dishwasher after opening the beer? Just curious . . .
