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.
"Subbie Slip has her whip, handcuffs and legcuffs today. Haven’t checked my mood ring yet."
Hmm.. Hildy from trading Spaces has a mood ring, and is somewhat insane like most of we denizens of the "Weird threads"...
*Tip-toeing backwards slowly*
I'll behave, I promise.
(This is all punishment for my jokes back in the Dimensional Doors thread aways back about chaining IRS agents/agentettes in the basement and having a torture rack, isn't it?)
Secret Garden did it yesterday. Dubyaismypresident subbed for three or four days last week.
None of us want this thread down for a day.
Hobbes1 and Gabz would do it if I asked them, but I'm okay. Right now I'm a gimp with a bad leg, so I have the time.
But on Friday at lunch I'm cutting out early. JimRob, Sheila and Chris will be in town. We're all going out to lunch. Yippieeee!
The Ketchup Lady causes acute de-ossification in my case.
Okay, Clarice. I understand your fetish and CJ's fetish with the sheep and lambies.
don't like to hear that ATALL!
Hannibal used to know how to make me feel loved and wanted...
Ahhhh..
Friday you escape, eh?
*whispered*
Fava beans...
Anniegetyourgun (Miss Annie) was exhausted from the camp. We drove her bananas.
Then during our first year at WFTD, none of us really knew anything about HTML except Cyber and Lazamataz. That's when you couldn't go over 200 posts or it took ten hours to load. Both of them came in here with hoses to clean out the classrooms. We had the HTML so messed up, it was impossible to fix without the experts coming in.
I now have the "code" to fix just about anything, but the new programs don't need them. I have it saved just in case.
LOL!
Couldn't think of how to type the inhaling drool sound thing from the movie.
No. I'll post the WFTD, then escape around 10:30. The class will be put on notice I'll be with Principal Robinson himself.
Oh yikes, I remember those days.
I signed up in October 2000, and got to see half of whole threads on 'marquee'.
*chuckle*
And people typing "/ bold off!"
Yikes!
Then the new software came up, and rined my html skills.
Just trying to be optimistic. Probably doesn't help a bit.
*sigh*
Who'll be keeping an eye on the class while you're at lunch?
You made xs's day . . .
Thank you and welcome.
I try to please, and sometimes amuse.
: ) hannibal gets me every time...
I remember I learned DOS. Six months later it was gone. But I still do use DOS sometimes for different things.
