Word For The Day, Wednesday 11/13/02
The Verbivores | 11/13/02 | Mistress Bella

Posted on 11/13/2002 8:52:13 AM PST by Bella_Bru

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....

insouciant\in-SOO-see-uhnt\, adjective
insouciance noun

Marked by blithe unconcern; nonchalant; as, "an elegantly insouciant manner"

Etymology: Insouciant is from the French, from in-, not + souciant, caring.

Good Morning, class!

meaning you won't be going to sleep at all tonight ?

Ahmmmn.

She's, like a newly wed ya know .... (Unlike certain xsexy ones I can think of...)

You think she's asleep when she's up all night posting things when she's asleep?

(Hmmmn. Lettuce rephrase that...)

Do you think the thingies she's posting when she's up at night are suitable for posting ....

(Hmmmn. That's not much better....)

What do you think she's posting when she's up all night?

(No .... Somehow that doesn't sound right either...)

HOBBY! Help me out here.

We are frying a terrorist here in VA tomorrow. We are not shy about using the death penalty, which is why it is good we got first crack at the snipers.

According to my birth certificate, I'll be 39 next month, but according to the way I looked in my bathroom mirror this morning, I'm pure AARP bait. I'm not sure how that averages out.

Don't worry, Miss Rose, I'm 52. I may look a lot younger (I attribute this to mass consumption of alcohol and tobacco products and looking at pretty girls a lot), but don't worry, I'm Alzheimered beyond my years inside. What were we talking about?
