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.

"Yes, and I am sure it has lots of lovely pictures..."

Yes, it does. The kind of black and white pictures with just outlines, suitable for coloring.

TGIF, it's been a rough week, and I'm going to curb my appetence for posting pics of the Bride of Satan.

HOWEVER, the occasional gratuitous ossifier may appear without warning.....

While the press has an appetence
To say that Powell is on the fence
He is the good cop
Who is used to stop
The bad cop, Rumsfield of Defense.

i would suggest that you look up robt, who resides in that state

Not to worry, xsmommy. I won't have time; as soon as I'm done there Saturday I'm high-tailin' it to SC to spend Thanksgiving with the in-laws. Besides, I'm on my second half-century of being nice; that's a pretty thick crust of niceness to crack. :-)

Disney is an absolute abomination. No matter that my kids would not get this joke, there is WAY too much innuendo in disney's crap.
