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. Im 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.

Thank you, Arghie!!!
She (Jean) has already ought her tickets for the first (midnight) showing. And her screen capture program is counting down hours, minutes, and seconds to the Harry Potter release!
(And then she (Freeper tealcandtrip by the way) bought more to take me and St Ronnie with her to the first evening's show...)
Well.
Lettuce watch her Polish your sterling rod .....
Neaner, neaner.
Jean gets to see it at 12:01 Eastern. YOU are an hour later .....
Neaner, neaner.
(Recognize her Freeper login?)
Potter Ping.
I'm trying to decipher her name........a hint?
Ya gotta pronunciate it properly.
Try "Tealc and Trip."
I once, and only once, went to the salon for a "wave", not a perm..........a poodle is the perfect way to describe what I looked like - so I totally sympathize with your daughter as I also have naturally curly hair.
The gal at the salon was hilarious........she remembered the first time we brought her there and asked me what kind of damage had she done this time!!!!!
You daughter had an accident? Is she OK? No wonder you are having a bad day.
Hope you got your pic in the paper!!!!
School gets out 5 weeks from tomorrow - so I'm enjoying my unlimited time on the computer while I can!!!!
I was in desperate meed of a nurse ratchett - thank you very much!!!!!
Thanks for understanding about the hair length thing. she's totally thrilled with it and to be honest, she looks absolutely adorable, even with my sewing scissor (botched) job. Dana is going to fix that Saturday.
Dana was actually very funny when we were on the phone - the first thing she asked me was "what has she done now?"....she remembered the fiasco of Jax cutting her hair the week before school picturs being taking over a year ago!!!!
The zero tolerance crapola has gotten out of hand every where, even in many private schools.
Not all public schools are cesspools of liberalism, nor are they all controlled by the NEA. Many are, and I will never deny that, in fact I will be the first to condemn them for it. It's part of the reason we live where we do now.
WAY TO GO xsteen!!!!!!!!!
forget the time of the dang movie - I don't go to see a movie in a "movie theater" because they are just danged uncomfortable to fold my 36inch inseam legs into one of the seats.
As to time of movie - I used to be a regular at midnight showings of Rocky Horror Picture Show in Greenwich Village. Of course that was back in the day of movie theaters that were comfortable to be in.
Gabz (who has not been in a movie theater since 1982)
ROFL!!!!!!!!!!
Unfortunately she has been exposed to her now 25yo old cousin who should have long blonde hair but had blue dreadlocks the last time we saw her.
I love XSteen - I WANT her.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
(Robt contemplates the pleasures of loooooooooooooooooooooongggggggggggggggggggggggg legs.)
Thank you for the sympathy. I was totally without a clue as how to deal with it. I think I was more embarrassed about my lack of knowlege of dealing with it than the "stigma" attached to it.
I'm going to follow the same plan as my mail carrier told me she does in the future - keep a supply of the stuff to combat it before it happens - first word of it in the school, treat her head.
I'm know it's much worse in the blue parts of the state, but the flatlanders 30 minutes away in Ann Arbor are starting to push for it here too.
Keep contemplating...............
these long legs are taking the head and rest of body attached to them to meet their date will a mattress and pillow!
I don't blame you for being irked.
Other than suggesting you run for the school board, I don't know what to suggest, my FRiend.
Although now I can't do that anymore. Agewise I'm more of an uncle than a cousin to some of them. My younger cousin's kids are older than some of my first cousins.
