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....

I love Jim Traficant. I love everything he stands for," Bunosky said. The trial "only enhanced my position with Traficant. I feel he's innocent of all 10 charges. I really feel like he was totally railroaded." ITA! free jimbo!

Ain't it great to be so loved.
I've got one of those kinds as well - fortunately it hasn't found me here........yet.
OTOH the thing following me is too much of a socialist to even consider coming here - it would be booted in a second!!!!

He addressed this to SeaDragon;All.
Cool it. I told tpaine to stay off this thread and he has complied so far. Do not be calling him back here.
"ALL" would have worked, he didn't have to put me in there.
