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....
Subbie Slip has her whip, handcuffs and legcuffs today. Haven’t checked my mood ring yet. Y’all behave yourselves, ya hear? Principal JimRob is still out of town. I expect the utmost respect on this thread today. The Mods have been overworked lately.
The rest of the stuff is locked up in my drawer.

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!
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 grief - anyone that orders 25 boxes of GS cookies should at least get roast beast............
But burgers and dogs are good!!!!
i have decided on Key Lime Pie, it is one of my specialties and an xshub fave. : P
Girls lie too.
LOL!!! That does sound like fun.
My hesitation for doing it here is not a lack of room - we've got tons......but we are right on a very busy road and I don't have any fences.
Jax is thrilled with where we are having the party.......and if the weather doesn't cooperate for mini golf there are pool tables and video games the kids can play.
what is the red X? i figured that the girlie had something to do with your funk! absence makes the heart grow fonder, and you DO need some sleep!
When I had my other home in Big Bear, CA, a big old brown bear would come right on down through my property about twice a year. There really aren't any fences there. It just came off the mountain, crossed a dangerous road, then hopped in the lake to get it's load of fish. Danged bear could catch more fish than I could.
The "flat-landers" (that's what locals called them) would get as close as they could to take photos of the bear catching fish. If the bear had gotten too close to the folks, the bear would have been killed. Sad. It just wanted some good lake food. Then it would meander back up into the mountains with its belly full.
Pumas, on the other hand, scare me to death. Big cats ready to pounce on you or your dogs. And they come out at night. All you can see is their yellow eyes. I always carried a rock at night to scare those felines away.
yeppers
I agree with you about a tranq gun..........but I guess they did what they felt they had to do given the circumstances.
We were up in New Hampshire about 15 years ago and were in a bar/restaurant that my hubby hung out in years before and still knew the owner. One night when we were in there they were showing a video the owner had taken of the black bear that would climb into the dumpster back to eat. there is one sequence when the bear looks up and sees Red (the owner) and his face is covered in sour cream and quacamole. absolutely hilarious.
The video ends as Red puts the camera down at his side and runs like the dickens because the bear is chasing him!!!!!!
For any woman to announce on a radio station that she is "sexy" is sad. Then Kerry Ketchup said she was "saucy." That's just a tad bit weird.
LOL!
Let's do our own scientific poll of WFTD boys. do you agree that THK is sexy and saucy???
She's a three-bagger.
You will be fine, my dear. Learn something new. Read some special books you have wanted to read. Go out practice shooting.
Hope you're there for her when she gets back.
I'm glad you're only polling the WFTD boys.............i would probably get banned if I expressed my true opinion......
bleccch
Maybe this particular bear didn't like Red's guacamole. LOL!
three bagger -- only if the bags are large and filled with $$$$
