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....
animadversion \an-uh-mad-VUR-zhun\, noun:
1. Harsh criticism or disapproval.
2. Remarks by way of criticism and usually of censure; adverse criticism; reproof; blame.
Etymology: Animadversion is from Latin animadversio, animadversion-, from animadversus, past participle of animadverto, animadvertere, to turn the mind toward, from animus, mind, spirit + adverto, advertere, to turn toward, from ad, toward + verto, vertere, to turn.

hey ceej, if i take motrin every day, will i have a better memory?There's quite a bit of evidence that an NSAID like Motrin or Naproxen taken regularly can lessen the risk of Alzheimer's and colon cancer. I take mine every morning.

Motrin or Naproxen taken regularly can lessen the risk of Alzheimer's and colon cancer.Sounds like a cure for cranio-rectal inversion, too. Could be a heckuva breakthrough!
