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. Im 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.

Why is it I can never get the blue font on the second word? It is driving me CRAZY!
We're 55 degrees, and I actually had to go uncommando this morning. Brrrrrrrr.
Not a nice boy this morning, are you Grimmy?
Very well done!!
Thank You...
Have you seen Bill Clinton lately? He looks like death warmed over. I wonder if he considers his little heart problem a nuisance or a warning. I, myself, think there are secrets about his health and he will not be available to help Hillary in 2008, perhaps not even in 2006.
AIDS can be such a nuisance.
"Back door beauty?"
Lookie here. The new girl is gettin' testy with the subbie. I think we may have a catfight on our hands.
Great thread by PJ -- again! Funny, funny man!
Excellent once again!
Time is at a premium, so:
JF'nK, the nuanced nuisance from Nantucket, simply made no sense to America...
Slip and I are both recovering from headcolds...The catfight photos would be more realistic if some green jello were part of the action...
So she was asking for the recipe for shi'ite?
We'll probably never know about Klintoon. He'll go to the same hospital in France as Arafatty did.
Fridaaaaaaay!
*swan dives face first into the keyboard.*
Owwwiiiiiie!
Ohhhhh, dang. A++++ for you, 1smallV!
Only you, Tiger. Only you . . .
You've got a hot morning date?
We'll be grading on the swan dives, also, Darksheare. I want to give you a 10, but can't see you from there!
