The Senator is contumaceous,
Ole Reid's words being consternacious,
Including character assassination,
From FBI files comes the intimations.

RE: your fried corn dish

The fried corn sounded really good. I'm so glad you decided to give the bacon grease thing a try. It is also really good for making sausage gravy to go over biscuits, but you might need some time to work your way up to that. In the words of Obi Wan Kenobi to Luke, "You have just taken your first steps in a bigger universe."

I went back and checked my roll (ping list) for WFTD, and found that both of the truant students who appear to have slept through the opening bell on the last two Wednesdays are in fact on the roll and were pinged on post #2 or #3 of the thread.

On Bolton, the dems were contumacious,
In their objections, quite loquacious.
(Voinovich's skull is airy and spacious.)
But the reps--for once--were more tenacious.
Let's hope confirmation is less vexatious!
It's time for the victors to stop being gracious!

By agreeing to sub this afternoon up at school, I can easily avoid contact with the contumacious fifth graders.

The contumacious car drew the ire and wrath of it's owner who with vile oaths and gestures of power, blew the car away with an M82A1 .50cal to put it out of his misery...
