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.
THAUMATURGE
Noun
Pronunciation: Thaw/my/turd . Oh, excuse me. Thaw/my/turj.
Etymology: [Greek thaumatourgos : thauma, thaumat-, wonder + ergon, work; see werg- in Indo-European Roots.]
1) A performer of miracles or magic feats.
Thank you, Arghie!!!

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!
HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO!
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.

Heck, every year I seem to get another birthday. I guess it's a symptom of traumamaturging to have to blow harder to get all them there candles out....

Well, start off with ordering a sub (hoagie, grinder, big ol' meaty sandwish) with mayo on the side. Put the mayo (in it's plastic container) on the countertop. Forget to use it and leave it on the countertop overnight. In the morning, while drowsy, let your shirtsleeve catch the container and flip it.
Judges only awarded me a 7.8.

Bill Clinton is a thaumaturge. As for thawing turds, I put banana in the freezer to make a smoothie and forgot I had to peel it first :-)
