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.

"Cat" and I are buddies. He helps select the Official Muttly Daily Costume, y' know.

A very sharp dresser.

Did you know that goggles can go with a raccoonskin cap and six-guns???.....and a turban with giant feather can go with an RCMP Sgt. Preston tunic???

Me didn't.

Not Gallup. The area where we saw all the purple mesas and stuff. It was gorgeous.

I told Corin Stormhands to come back any time. I just didn't know who he was.

As you well know, we never know who comes through the classroom doors on a daily basis! LOL!

Well, xs and I are great party givers. Now we can set the barn up as a boxing arena. Isn't Boxing Day coming up soon in Canada? We can bring all kinds of treats and things and watch you and HD mud wrestle in a boxing ring. I bet the tickets will go like hotcakes.
