Posted on 03/01/2005 4:44:55 AM PST by Slip18

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.

PRESAL

Noun:

PRONOUNCED: Pry/zel

Etymology: Can’t read it.


1) (obs) A seizure (as of goods) under legal or customary privileges.

Impersonating a doctor and a technician. Glad he got caught. Too bad he didn't do the right things the hard way, by going to school.

I read the other day that women are dead on right 10 times more often about other people than men. We have natural intuition.

Here Puss is such an endearing name. NOT! I'm so glad for the kitty, though.

I was the only one of the three who interviewed him that expressed doubts. I bring the other two fresh crow gumbo once a month.

He is really very intelligent but he is lazy and sleazy. I'm glad he got caught too.

Well at least I admitted my weakness - I quit interviewing anyone after we had a jewelry theft - decided my judgement on people was flawed.............. that was about the time I met my best friend Argh...........

I bash the two who didn't listen to me every chance I get. I am having fun with this. The guy stole tools and equipment and the dang radio out of his truck. Around $2500 worth of stuff. The owner of the company refused to do anything about it.
