Word For The Day, Friday 11/15/02
The Verbivores | 11/15/02 | Mistress Bella

Posted on 11/15/2002 7:19:40 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....


appetence\ap·pe·tence\ noun:
appetency
appetentadjective

1. A strong craving or desire.
2. A tendency or propensity.
3. A natural attraction or affinity.

Etymology: Probably French appétence, from Latin appetentia, from appetns, appetent- present participle of appetere, to strive after.

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

"I understand you are an expert in Pole locks..."

Nay, nay..... She is a lawyer, not a criminal. She couldn't pick her way out of a locked Warsaw convertible even if she started with the top down.

She is, however, simply an amazing expert instructress in pole licks....

Homework:

"Ah to sleep, perchance to dream ..

Of maidens, or of forbidden fruit?"

We may never know for sure, but I'll bet this fellow was dreaming about what he was gonna eat next.... Or maybe where he was going to get up his sleeping bag that night.

Reminds me of a song:

You bring the line and I'll bring the pole honey

You bring the line and I'll bring the pole, babe

You bring the line and I'll bring the pole

we'll go down......

..... uh, can't remember the rest.......

I haven't seen this much drooling and cyberlust exchanged in the class since Miss Bella and Mr. SCGOP nearly got expelled by the BOE.
