Word For The Day, Monday, 1/27/06



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".

incongruous; adj.in·congru·ous·ly adv. in·congru·ous·ness n.

1. Lacking in harmony; incompatible: a joke that was incongruous with polite conversation. 2. Not in agreement, as with principles; inconsistent: a plan incongruous with reason. 3. Not in keeping with what is correct, proper, or logical; inappropriate: incongruous behavior.

Etymology: [From Latin incongruus : in-, not; see in-1 + congruus, congruous; see congruous.]

Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for 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....

Bernie Goldberg's latest book is full of incongruous blowhards who are making a mess of our country.

Here is the "Man Bites Dog" angle to the Anna Nicole Smith Saga (or possibly the broken clock angle):

A three-judge panel of the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco eventually threw out the entire award to Smith, ruling that the estate battle was best settled in Texas.
The 9th Circus Court actually got a decision right.

I guess that means that Souter, Bader-Ginsberg, and Anna's implants will be the four biggest and most disgusting boobs in the building today. It's not often that Souter and Bader-Ginsberg have that kind of competition.
