Friday, April 22, 2005

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.


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.

The "Requested Document" is not there, Gabz. Someone must have gotten to that very quickly.

Have you ever seen Adventures in Babysitting? My favorite scene is when they end up in the blues club and are told "Nobody gets outta here wiffout singin' the blues".

Feel like a fool, but I don't know who Peter Pace is. Do you have a little background?

I've never seen it. I have sung original songs in a blues club before. But that was a long time ago. I need to find a good club.

Here is the dirt on Pace. You'll recognize him when you see him. He's done most of the press conferences with Rumsfeld and the current Joint Chief. He's a babe too.

How about some sinister science fiction?

This would be a good title for a biography of Bill and Hillary Clinton.

BTW - This is a fabulous book.

The sinister rantings by Dean about Rush Limbaugh only serves to relegate Dean to the moral asheap of modern day politics.

I thought "sinister" was a sinful minister.
