Word For The Day, Tuesday, October 25, 2005, MALLEABLE

October 25, 2005, Tuesday

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.


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.

Pronunciation: mal/ee/a/bal
Etymology: Middle Earth

To a Chinese father, a malleable man is one who is suitable to wed his daughter

Is that because he likes ducktile?

No, it has nothing to do with ductile (at least you weren't Peking at the answer?)

He is malleable because he is lich. He dlives a Lolls-Loyce. Has house on Flench Liviera.

On the SCOTUS
Tony Kennedy proved malleable
Proving no one is infallable
Whatever happens next
Pick a judge faithful to the text
Speculation will be ensured
The only one thing known for sure
Is anyone POTUS picks will be to Hugh Hewitt, allowable.

Sea's envelope fit just fine around her malebox, but her boxes were too tight.

Butt, that particular problem became mailable after she pounded her box with a hammer for a while.

Did Rosa die today or last night. Haven't listened to the news yet. Not ready for it.

May she rest in peace.

It's planting season now in Central AZ. We don't get our first freeze until Jan. 15 to Feb. 15. The freeze lasts about a day. One year we did get hail, though, and it killed my tomatoes. That was before my new garden was put in.

It wasn't meant to be, xs. That's how you have to think about it. In the meantime,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, XSTEEN!

Cook, usually I can follow your posts. This time I'm totally confused, but you did use the WFTD!

A++++ for you!
