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. Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Subbie Slip has her whip, handcuffs and legcuffs today. Tomorrow I’m bringing in chains, so beware.
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.

As long as you are still here, no regrets are necessary. We all have CRS. What photo?
Well, I hope your peccant weekend is piquant!
I see London. I See France. I see someone's Underpants!
How's that for a playground platitude!
I deserve it. It's been a long week and I'm ready to bust loose!
A++++ for you!
Please ellucidate your busting loose for us on Monday. We are all very, very interested.
Don't let the cat out!
A++++ for you!
Training, great training. LOL!
Actually, I've had SIX showers.
THERE! I remembered!
I was gratified that the military court deemed the young Marine not peccant in his shooting of the Iraqi insurgent in the mosque.
A desire to be peccant
and wanting some action
made the bride-to-be truant,
and her tennies made traction.
She believed all the versions
about Vegas and vice
cast her aspersions
and prob'ly rolled dice
crapped out on sevens
and slept with whomever
awoke at eleven
and shrugged, "yeah, whatever"
She made up a whopper
to rival McPherson
flew a non-stopper
back home, now is fearsome.
Now what, you may ask
makes her seem slightly miffed?
That gordian task
of returning those gifts.
oh Jan24th, i could have used your help last night with xsteen's poetery paper. she had to do an explication (term of art, one i had NEVER heard in my life til she came home with it) on A.E.Housman's To An Athlete Dying Young. i have trouble breathing and want to run screaming from the room when she asks for my help with this crap. i can see no meaning other than the obvious, surface meaning, and writing about poetry is WAY beyond me. i want sophomore English to be OVER!!!!!
Daring and brave,
the peccant Mr. Kerry,
flipping around,
flopped on gay marriage.
What penace will they make him pay,
the DNC,
with it's agenda so gay,
and it's tolerance so low
for those who sin
against the values they set?
Surely a higher penance
than the priest gives him
when he takes communion
while voting for abortion rights.
Lovely photo of you, Marteen.
Only six showers. Come on, you know eight or ten showers are norm in the South.
A++++ for you, Explorer!
A++++ for you, J24!
Oh.
But you peakcant under anybody's dress! (That's not polite, ya know.....)
