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.

You'll have to speak to Tiger, W, Cook, SG and I'm missing someone about the Gators. I only do baseball, and we lost in the playoffs very well.

Your keys are in your pants pocket where you lose them every single day.

Are you sure those are keys, that he's not just happy to see you?

Makes hair grow on your hands, too, but then if you're blind, you won't see the hairy growth.

A++++ for you. You made the subbie laugh!

I was so crestfallen between the announcement of Miers for SC and the lack of information about the OU bomber that my creative juices were all dried up and I couldn't come up with anything for the WFTD yesterday.

i thought it was interesting how he said the strip lays out his entire personality and he wasn't aware and hadn't intended for it to be so obvious.
