Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here’s my use of the word “mendacity”:

Afghanistian is working hard on their new program called “mend a city.” I suppose they should have called it “mend a country,” but who am I to judge?

If all y’alls don’t like my sentence, too darned bad for you!

RULES: You must use the WFTD in a sentence for an A. For a + after your “A,” you must bring in a link of the word usage or something funny, a poem or some prose that will elucidate the word for us.

If you need to know how to link, come to the Subbie’s desk in the front of the class.

Good Morning, and right on time!

mendacity (mèn-dàs´î-tê) noun
plural mendacities
1. The condition of being mendacious; untruthfulness.
2. A lie; a falsehood.

I guess we're still talking about liberals, eh?

First? Top Ten?

The Problem? It was too much tequilla, ... or not quite enough.

Homework?

Mendacities

Years ago they talked about,
Something called megacities.
Now we know that liberals,
Inhabit Mendacities.

They lie about in windrows,
Blown by some ill wind.
There never is a truthful word,
Either spoken out or penned.

I’m glad that I don’t live there,
I don’t think I’d fit in.
In fact I doubt there’s even room,
For a cuddly Viking Kitten.

IIRC, he's yelling 'bout 'mendacity' here. If not, he will soon, or perhaps just has. Regardless, croquettes won't complain...

The democratic credo: Mendacity
Coupled with chutzpah (audacity)
Watch them flip-flop and spin
"Take this out! Put this in!"
(Clinton's lies, not his urge for rapacity)

There's going to be a political Jeopardy
But the libs can't use mendacity
So conservatives should
Rule in the 'hood
Alex will learn who has perspicacity.

It's the last item on the page. We need a Jeopardy junkie to keep score between the libs and concervatives and give a final dollar count at the end of the week.

Looks like you pinged me by my old name (will1776). Can't tell you how much I missed you guys. I don't think I can regularly attend class until I get my home computer fixed. Please keep pinging me though. I might be here to strike post without you knowing it.
