Word For The Day, Tuesday, October 3, 2005,
10/03/05 | Slip 18

Posted on 10/04/2005 5:46:47 AM PDT by Slip18

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. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....

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.

CONURBATION

Noun:

1) An aggregation or continuous network of urban communities [syn: urban sprawl]

Pronounced: Con/ur/bae/shun

Etymology: I have no clue

Good Morning, Class. Welcome to School!

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.

Well, just dang. I did everything last night. Then some macros wouldn't let me post our logo and my handcuffs. Then the 'thon stuff came on, and I couldn't post to anyone. Took me a half an hour this morning. GRRRRR!

In the electronic conurbation
we live our hours in,
amazing how the waves of images,
thoughts,
memes
span the net at the speed of light,
for good or ill.

Thus those with access
can make fools of us all,
stuning us with their beeber-like devices,
by giving us data that fits their needs
instead of the truth,
and the Big Lie
becomes the reality in some people's minds,
set in concrete,
unable to be blasted out
with TNT,
even at the height of a hurricane.

Urban sprawl, when practiced by the city planning dept., should be known as masterconurbation.
