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.

No gid in giddyups today. We have lessoms to learn.
Come join me in the cloak room for a bit and we'll see if you retract that statement, xs.
OMG did you guys hear about the nutball astronaut flipping out over a man???? jeezopete you'd think they would screen for mental stability in that job, and that one slipped right through!
That's because of YOU!
the mere fact that you used the term CLOAK ROOM proves you ain't that young!! i haven't heard that in eons!
You're just a year younger than Cyber. I robbed the cradle. LOL!
And the only thing you need to know about the Spurs is that they are 7 games behind the Mavericks.
I like your coach. The former Spur!
That has to be the first clean "Nantucket" limerick I've ever seen. :-|
A++++ for you.
I just saw it flip by on TV. What did she do?
I noticed at the end of the article that the one they are fighting over is married for heaven's sake.
I figure that a job like astronaut must require you to keep tight control on your emotions... and if you don't blow off some steam sometimes it'll boil over... her career is over now....
That is utterly bizarre.........
She just flew in a recent mission.....and she was this nutso!
I love Avery. When he quits coaching he needs to become a preacher.
I couldn't figure it out last night if it was a female austronaut with another female astronaut or one female austronaut wanting the male austronaut. I still can't figure it out. There must be a thread here.
she was involved with a space shuttle commander, and suspected this other hussy woman astronaut of carrying on with him too, so she drove from Houston, wearing DIAPERS so as not to have to stop, to meet this woman's plane in FL somehwere, and wore a wig, trenchcoat etc. and waited for her, looking all suspicious, and then accosted her and squirted her with pepper spray, but they found in her car a knife, a pellet gun and all sorts of other stuff.she has been charged with attempted kidnapping. What man is worth humiliating yourself in front of the nation in such a spectacular way, i ask you this!!!
Hehehehehehehehehe. You got caught, tD!
she's nutty now, but that doesn't mean she was then...
