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.
You've got FReepmail.
Well IMHO if you have to run around telling people you are sexy, you ain't!
Here's a funny story about Cyber. I hope he doesn't mind me telling it.
We were at the derm's office a couple of days ago. He has to be checked for the old squamus cell carcinoma every six months. I always go in to have old freckles removed.
He had about a two to three inch bruise on his inner thigh with five small puncture holes inside the bruise. He does not bruise easily. So we had the doc check it. Dr. Beth the Knife couldn't figure it out, so she called in another doc. That doc asked me if we had spiders inside the house. No, no spiders. He told us to just watch it in case necrosis set in.
So that night we marked the area with a red pen to see if it got bigger or smaller.
Next morning we checked it. It got smaller, and was the same size as the cat (Simba's) paw. Same puncture wounds as the cat's nails. The cat must have jumped up on him in the middle of the night when his leg was uncovered.
We laughed that morning. Cyber said, "I must have been a little out of it that night." Right!
He's been working so hard the past couple of weeks, he's sleeping like a bear who's hibernating.
LOL!!!!! You're right.
Poor Cyber
The picture is not showing? I don't get it. It shows up on my computer. Is this working?
Click on my profile... see if that works.
nope. maybe i can see it from a diff venue. i will try later.
Apples for the sub. They're called "Maiden Blush", which concept I realise is by now thoroughly superannuated in the case of our subbie, um, er, I think I'll shut up now...
Pssst, xs, don't tell Miss Whip I tried to find one with a worm in it...
begging for a thrashing from ms slip?
i love that man.
One thing you are absolutely correct on... I NEEDED SOME SLEEP! Anyway, I would trade my sleep in for a couple kisses.
I shudder to think what Clinton would have been doing in that situation.
any mother who let her little girl anywhere near the clintoon is guilty of child abuse. bite your tongue!
