a. a man of real or fancied importance: a personage
b. a serious or consequential matter
Example sentence:
Another time.
Rules: Everyone should leave a post using the Word for the Day in one or more sentences.

Odd word today.
Apparently the Democrats believe a TV show portrayal of a former Administration's failings is a killcow, while the fight against terrorism is merely a political sideshow.
Excellent!
i am going to predict that there will be lots of pix of hillary on this thread. : )

Morning!
X42 is a killcow
Of that there is no doubt
But he is one celebrity
That we could do without
With his waspish, paranoid wife
Who is at least unstable
He has to be in the spotlight
As much as he is able
As a serial philanderer
He truly does excel-
Monica was under the desk
While the country went to hell
Cows With Guns Fat and docile, big and dumb They look so stupid, they aren't much fun Cows aren't fun They eat to grow, grow to die Die to be et at the hamburger fry Cows well done Nobody thunk it, nobody knew No one imagined the great cow guru Cows are one He hid in the forest, read books with great zeal He loved Che Guevera, a revolutionary veal Cow Tse Tongue He spoke about justice, but nobody stirred He felt like an outcast, alone in the herd Cow doldrums He mooed we must fight, escape or we'll die Cows gathered around, cause the steaks were so high Bad cow pun But then he was captured, stuffed into a crate Loaded onto a truck, where he rode to his fate Cows are bummed He was a scrawny calf, who looked rather woozy No one suspected he was packing an Uzi Cows with guns They came with a needle to stick in his thigh He kicked for the groin, he pissed in their eye Cow well hung Knocked over a tractor and ran for the door Six gallons of gas flowed out on the floor Run cows run! He picked up a bullhorn and jumped up on the hay We are free roving bovines, we run free today We will fight for bovine freedom And hold our large heads high We will run free with the Buffalo, or die Cows with guns They crashed the gate in a great stampede Tipped over a milk truck, torched all the feed Cows have fun Sixty police cars were piled in a heap Covered in cow pies, covered up deep Much cow dung Black smoke rising, darkening the day Twelve burning McDonalds, have it your way We will fight for bovine freedom And hold our large heads high We will run free with the Buffalo, or die Cows with guns The President said "enough is enough These uppity cattle, its time to get tough" Cow dung flung The newspapers gloated, folks sighed with relief Tomorrow at noon, they would all be ground beef Cows on buns The cows were surrounded, they waited and prayed They mooed their last moos, they chewed their last hay Cows out gunned The order was given to turn cows to whoppers Enforced by the might of ten thousand coppers But on the horizon surrounding the shoppers Came the deafening roar of chickens in choppers We will fight for bovine freedom And hold our large heads high We will run free with the Buffalo, or die Cows with guns
Just found out this week that "PE" stands for "Professional Engineer."
I'm off to work, hoping to get done early-back later...
If I use the word 'killcow' in a political sentence, would the Secret Service investigate me thinking I'd threatened someone who deems herself Presidential material?
