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 the janitor’s closet for safekeeping. No one knew my secret, but there it is. 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 to A++++ or a quadruple minus F, depending on my mood. .

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School! Yes, we’re all here. No lumpen today.
RULES: You must know how to read and write. Comprension only counts as a portion of your grade.
I'm sorry if I didn't get all of the new students. I didn't keep track of all y'alls.
We’re having stuff falling out of the sky for two days. Then there’s the wind factor with the dust. Should be lovely.
Glad you’re getting our temperatures!
I haven’t been out of bed at this time of morning in over a year, except to get Cyber his coffee. ~yahn~
Obama is causing Hillary to tipple
She is cold, from her cankle to nipple
And she’s so full of sh!t
Her advisors should quit
And be replaced by that old Mr. Whipple
Obama support may triple
As he pushes pifffle
A scotch old Willey tipples
Iowa, Hilly should have skippled.
Those who imbibe in the presents, pre-scents, and presence of four-footed cow-type creatures may engage in he pleascent sport of cow tippling....
(Robt sees how long he can milk this cownundrum ...)
ROTFLMAO!
A++++ for you, Truthie!
Another ROTFLMAO!
A++++ for you, Neo!
Good one, Robert!
The last definition of the word reminded me of cow tipping. We’re really sick, Cook.
A++++ for you!
(Robt looks at closet. Hmmmmn. Sees 3 flavors of steel-toed safety shoes. Others (suit shoes, dancing shoes, tennis shoes as well.) ..... Decides he does not fit the Dent’s criteria. )
Sounds as if you’ve been cow tippling, Conor.
That was in the cartoon car movie we’ve seen a few times, but I can’t remember the name of it. The cars tipple/topple the cows.
Admit it, Cook. There are those of us who love footware and those of us who don’t.
We love shoes!!!
xs and girls have probably bought all the great ones out in VA. We don’t have the same footsies in AZ. We still have white shoes. LOL!
Is this supposed to be a definition or instructions on how to tipple?
-follow the links in #34.........I have never seen anything so funny.
The cars tipped the TRACTORS in the movie “Cars”.
That’s the kind of thing that I had in mind.
