February 27, 2007, TUESDAY, VISAGE
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.

It won't be a very pretty cake then is my guess.
I made three cakes last week and they were inedible. Cyber figured it out. The Crisco that you use to butter the pans was bad. I never knew Crisco could go bad. They were tossed and one was Cyber's birthday cake. Oh, the Crisco was tossed also.

"Re-caking ???? (But what if he eats it?)" A close examination of the picture discloses a trail of crumbs leading to the right. I don't know what lies in that direction, but a tiny corpse wouldn't surprise me.
"I'm not gonna eat it ... Let's get Mikey!"

Is Mikey a mouse? And are you sure you're following crumbs and not just mouse droppings?

It's grade inflation. But look at me. It's my birthday, and do I get a grade?
Of course, I haven't used the Word yet, but ...

And his gruesome visage grinned at the foolhardy victim that had shattered his sleep, their soul soon to be his sustenance.

Cheri did not like kids. I got him from a farm, his mom was a stray barn cat. I think some kid had been cruel to him.
One of his favoutite things was to watch the wind blow around the leaves in fall. He was an inside cat all the years he was with me.
To: NicknamedBob; Slip18
It's my birthday, and do I get a grade? Miss Slip, I think NicknamedBob needs a grade for his birthday.
