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.
Toroid noun:
Pronunciation: Tor-roid (how easy is that?)
1) A surface generated by the rotation of a plane closed curve about an axis lying in the plane and not intersecting it
2) A body whose surface has the form of a toroid.
3) Not in the dictionary, but in other words a DONUT would be toroidal (adverb). This is for xs and her Dunkin’ Donut friends. “I’d like a chocolate toroidal, please.
Poor Gabz. Take a nap.
Yep.
why? i don't get it.
Thats Every girls chrstmas wish, to ride a pony....
I'll spare you the graphic anatomical discussion ; )
oh
i was never one for horses, personally.
Dang, I was so tired, I didn't even use the WFTD correctly.
Up and moving and drinking my Earl Grey tea. I should be speeding along here soon. LOL! Thanks for taking over, xs!
xsteen took riding lessons briefly and i had to hang out in the barn for those and i was NEVER comfortable. they are way too big and make me nervous. i was sure she would be killed. and then there was the time i was leaning on the railing and the barncat came up right in front of me, inches from my nose, with a #%$^ing mouse hanging out of its mouth. i screamed BLUE MURDER!
See, guys understand that word. I'm sure xs gave you a grade, if not, you get an A+ for making the Subbie snicker.
A Cat,....with a Mouse....And you SCREAMED?????
I think they're cute when they are like that.
no, i just gave him kisses, no grade ; )
the thing was inches from me at face level, as it strolled along the railing that i was leaning on. it was GROSS.
Can't a toroid be of any roundness as long as it's got holes in both ends or through the middle?
Man, how do you find hats to fit? ;) BTW, the spouse is down 12 and I'm down 14.
I can not understand why they were sleeping at Reagan's funeral, he was also asleep from 1992 until 2000 so you would have thought he would be well rested.
Cyber said toroid and hemorrhoid would be used in a sentence together. He's giving you an A+ today.
sure Slip - that's how I read it. But that only describes a tiny portion of what XS brought to class.
I don't see my favorite kind there but it's just as well. They're all off limits until Fall anyway.
you guys are doing great, congrats!!!
Very, very good, P.O.E. You'll get the highest grade this morning A++++. I forgot about the handcuffs being toroidal.
