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.
The rest of the stuff is locked up in my drawer. I’m just letting all the new students know that we behave as if we were ladies and gentlemen in here. Those two words “as if” can get you an A if you make the subbie laugh.

Or if you like brunettes, there is always Rebecca Gomez (CG likes) or Kieran Chetry.
I'm about Rick Leventhal myself!
Lulabelle should not be permitted to watch any more Clinton crap on TV, it obviously and understandably makes her ill.
She should also learn to not eat cat poop when the cat is sick. But that is neither here nor there. Fortunately, she snoozed thru the Clinton lovefest today.
Oh, goody, several from Column A and several from Column B.
You have a veritable potpourri awaiting you!!
I think all bipeds get that. What I can't understand is a dog that is otherwise highly intelligent going after cat shit like it is a Whitman sampler!
Would that be Slim Whitman?
Thank you for the nice grade.
I have never owned a dog I considered stupid-I also have never owned a dog that didn't look upon the cat's litter box as a self-refilling treat box. Husky girl does it, and the cat looks at her like she is totally nuts-but I've got a plan devised for a litter box shelter to deter her-I just need to get the materials to build it...
Slim Whitman makes the alien's heads explode!
I was referring the a Whitman sampler...the candy.
Boo's litter pan is in the laundry room with a kitty door. Unfortunately she had a stomach upset this week which caused accidents. Lula reaped the benefits, and hence the upset. No $72 later, she is on the road to recovery.
Oh, duh, first I heard of it. Way to go, Slim!
Just heard that Bobby Frank Cherry has died of natural causes down in Atmore. For those of you who aren't Bhamians, he was one of the reprobates that set off the bomb at that Bham church back in '63. 4 little black girls were killed. Spike Lee made a movie.
oh good, i am glad to hear it. what did they tell you to give her to eat?
Good riddance.
Just her regular food. She has eaten a few bites of that, and I made Poppy Seed Chicken Casserole for our dinner, and she got a few bites of the boiled chicken. Also, when I've gone to the laundry room, where her treats are, she has gone with me to get treated. YEAH!!! Now she is watching for her daddy.
Yep, he was an evil being.
Say hi to Cluck for me.
