Tectonics

Noun (used with a singular verb)

    1. The study of the earth's structural features.
    2. The art or science of construction, especially of large buildings.


Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.

The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-)

Practice makes perfect.....post on....

Cloudy and 73 here-

Cyclical climate change is known
To the researchers of tectonics-
That it is completely natural
Infuriates those prone to moronics

The environazis just can’t abide
What is beyond their control-
It blows up their silly agenda
Of giving the planet a “soul”

It drives them to rabid foaming
When “real” science shines a light
And sends their man-made nonsense
Up in smoke and out of sight

A+++ Sunny, but chilly here. I am getting out of the house for awhile. Too sunny to stay in.

Nobody loves him more than me, but I think he willl be better served by waiting a few years. Although the prospect of him debating Biden is pretty delicious.

You don’t serve dinner on tectonic plates.

Does this count?
