April 17, 2007, Tuesday, INTEGRITY
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.

Many have sung the song, I prefer to listen to Tony Bennett
So many have sung Fly Me to the Moon. Wonderful song.
Cooool.
AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Hep me, hep me!
The Spurs played the Memphis Grizzlies last night but the Predators(my hockey team) played(or got outplayed by) the San Jose Sharks.
ROTFLMAO! Hope they were old shoes. I love that childhood song.
I told Cyber the other night that the song “Amore” had nothing to do with pizza. He loves pizza; I put up with it. Well, again he was right and I was wrong. This has also been sung by many performers other than Dean Martin (RIP).
++++
Performed by Dean Martin
(In Napoli where love is king
When boy meets girl here’s what they say)
When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie
That’s amore
When the world seems to shine like you’ve had too much wine
That’s amore
Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you’ll sing “Vita Bella”
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella
When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fagiole
That’s amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet
You’re in love
When you walk in a dream but you know you’re not
Dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli
That’s amore
When the moon hits you eye like a big pizza pie
That’s amore
(That’s amore)
When the world seems to shine like you’ve had too much wine
That’s amore
(That’s amore)
Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you’ll sing “Vita bella”
Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay
Like a gay tarantella
(Lucky fella)
When the stars make you drool just like a pasta fagiole
That’s amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet
You’re in love
When you walk in a dream but you know you’re not
Dreaming signore
Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli
That’s amore
(Amore)
That’s amore
I’m just joshing here, Soaring Feather, were the poets in the Sports Book to bet on who would win?
I’m sorry, SG, I’ve never been to a hockey game before. But I have seen ice hockey in LA, but I can’t remember their name.
LOL, I did not see it! ;)
Wait a minute, Vastie. Is that a thin woman working on getting her childhood fat back? Just curious.
Oh, I forgot, A++++ for you, Sweets!
Looks like a complete bust to me ....
A Lots Vegas poetry competition.
Gives a whole new meaning to the terms win, place, or show....
‘Cause the winners are the pair in the right place when they show..
I wanna place. I wanna place, pretty please. That means I get to be the middle of the sammich.
Cyber just said I couldn’t be part of the sammich today because I’m the subbie. Bummer in the summer.
Maybe tomorrow with Vastie.
LA has the Kings. Gretzky used to skate for them. They’re not doing as well without him.
Integrity will return shortly after the post office closes tonight, and everyone has finished telling their sob stories to their accountants in the belief that there is a CPA somewhere out there who will actually believe that they only owe the IRS a coupple of dollars and a meteor crashed onto their desk just as they were signing the check and now they have to get copies of all the documents and Grandma always completed Schedule A in crayon so if it was good enough for her it should be good enough for George Bush . . .
My friend Irene is an accountant and bartender. She has some interesting stories.
Home from work and getting ready to cook chicken with mushrooms-
Everything queen Hillary says
Is a lot of mindless drivel
She not only lacks integrity
She can barely even be civil
To anyone she looks down on-
And that covers a lot of folks
From secret service agents who
Made her the subject of jokes
To X42 when she found out
About Monica and the cigars
And unleashed the temper tantrums
We call Hillary’s ashtray wars
That’s right, the Kings. Gretzky, as I recall, played with the Kings, then became part owner. Wasn’t it last year his wife was betting off line? Gretzky had nothing to do with it. He’s squeeky clean.
