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.
Pronunciation: ‘ba/il/i/wick
Function: noun

Still haven’t put my bailiwick jail in here, but it will be coming soon to every theatre soon!
Well, I thought you might like to get closer to AZ. ROTFLMAO!!!
actually, no. Sorry dearie, byt me long term is to go to the other direction - Eastern Maine.
Interesting. I wonder if the regular nudist rule is in effect? In other words it's always the people who should keep their clothes on who are the ones who attend such things.
i think they said barbara bush as a Yalie had been to one...
Allegedly.
If that's the case then it must be a hard party to get in to...
and no one needs to ask WASSUP.... ; )
Big decision, xs. I think I would anonymously send the website address. Then she can tell you.
Maine is one of the states we want to see. Fly into D.C. and drive to Maine. See 'ya there. LOL!
I read that, too, but it's never been really established substantially by the press. I don't think in 1992 we had the cell phone cameras and all the gadgets that take photos now. She may have just gotten lucky. Or it didn't happen.
ROTFLMAO!
600 miles of the most congested urban highways in the country?
No, thank you.
What's that you're saying, Neo?
That bad, huh? What other states are up there? I've never been to the East Coast with the exception of FL and DC.
Come to Pennsylvania. See our verdant mountains. View history in Gettysburg. Visit the Amish. Tour the world's first modern superhighway. Ride our funicular inclines. Have some fries on your salad.
LOL~! At Skowhegen, there is a 40 foot tall wooden indian. You MUST do Freeport and LL Bean's at least once - even if it's just to say ya did.
And Arcadia national park is absolutely stunning.
There's a little antique diner in Gardiner called A1 (it's on the web), that has real good food - ten minutes from 95. The whole thing is on stilts.
North of Houlton there is a scale model of the solar system (one of only two or three in the whole USA). it isn't marked, you just come upon planets along side the road (rt 1) as you go north towards presque isle. We haven't found all of them yet.
and there's MOOSES!!!!
Linking is not my bailiwick, especially if it involves wiki- something.
But everything else sounds great! Now you'll get a visit from us. LOL!
Yeah, like I believe you stuttered. Sheesh!
