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”.

Frank

    1. Open and sincere in expression; straightforward: made several frank remarks about the quality of their work.
    2. Clearly manifest; evident: frank enjoyment.


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 prefer this YouTube rendition of “Wisconsin Jazz Band” for my entertainment! :)

yeah, Fr. Brian made that point yesterday at mass. LOL he said EVERYONE will be at mass Thursday as it’s Ascension Thursday and a Holy Day of Obligation....he says this at daily mass, where the devotees already know this. We all laughed knowing it would be sparsely attended. It’s not as popular as Ash Wednesday, which is not an obligatory day. RME

There would already be dead bodies if that was a Muslim family.

Well they have made it confusing in recent years with allowing some HDOs to be celebrated on the Sunday before, so it’s hard to know which are STILL HDos and which have been moved.

Sinatra was perfectly Frank
“Entertainer of The Century” his rank
While there still is a faction
For Presley or Jackson
You can take the Frank rank to the bank

Well, he’s just transferring recognition from the PLO to the Palenstinian state, so it’s more of a lateral move.

The only way his name could be more Ironic would be if WH Spokesperson Josh Earnest had a first name of Frank, since he is neither Earnest or Frank.

To quote Mitch Hennesey " I'm always frank and earnest with women. Uh, in New York I'm Frank, and Chicago I'm Ernest"

I was impressed with my new SIL’s desire to learn new things. He got a dremel drill and started practicing. He had created an image for their wedding which was on 5/1/15...which looked like a heart with a backward five that completed the image. He tried creating a stamp, but finally had one made. The bridesmaids and my daughter all got wooden hangers that he dremeled their names on....they were stunning. He kept himself involved in the planning and execution of the wedding. He built the backdrop out of PVC piping and draped it with bolts of glittery white fabric that he sewed and rigged to drape over the scene.
