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. Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Subbie Slip has her whip, handcuffs and legcuffs today. Tomorrow I’m bringing in chains, so beware.
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.

I would have liked to have seen the B-2 Bomber, though. We listened for it, but nothing. That arena is 40 miles from here, thank goodness.

Sorry.
41-14. They got trounced and I'm glad. My FIL is an alum of Florida but mostly I'm glad because OSU fans were so full of themselves, thinking they deserved a bigger bowl. And the Heisman curse continues.
