Word For The Day, Monday, 9/24/12
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".
noisome; adj.

Etymology: b>1382, "harmful, noxious," from noye "harm, misfortune," shortened form of anoi "annoyance" (from O.Fr. anoier, see annoy) + -some. Meaning "bad-smelling" first recorded 1577.
Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.
The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.
The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-)
Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Wedding week is finally here - my daughter will be getting married this week so I won’t be around much at all. Lots of family and friends arriving starting today. My lists have lists and I am still forgetting to do things.... pray for me please. My daughter has been a saint so far..... ;^)
How exciting! Will pray for you. Enjoy every minute of it.
praying that all goes off without a hitch and that she has a lifetime of happiness. praying also that the family isn’t too noisome!
Thank you both - my daughter has handled most of the plans herself, but just the little details are piling up.
And I'll gloomily counter with this
was mandel projected to beat brown? i don’t know anything about that race but from the pic Mandel looks like a punk to me, just first impression.
Not necessarily projected to win.
But I don’t see a lot of ticket splitters (Romney & Brown or Obama & Mandel) so its not a bad proxy.
And the poll can’t be too Dem biased as it has Kasich’s approval up over 50% too.
Re #2: He’s got the slims.
Probably from the HIV
Somewhere in PA there are a bunch of Gore/Santorum voters from 2000. Don’t even try to figure that out.
Good luck with everything this week!
I can (sort of) figure that out.
Santorum was essentially uncontested that year.
And the Democrat opponent was not only underfunded but also pro-life, which upset the NARAL gals.
Same poll has Zero 51 R 46. Which confirms my sense of little ticket splitting.
The Trib had a poll in the paper yesterday that had PA O 47 R 45. A wash. Other have O up by 11 in PA.
It’s starting to seem like it’s all nonsense.
Prayers that things go perfectly! And the hope that there will be NO bridezilla moments...
Mazel Tov! That’s wonderful!
The noisome odor eminating
From DC on a daily basis
Is caused by putrid scandals
That were previously in stasis
With murders at an embassy
And a cover-up so lame-
No wonder more screw-ups
Are now dragged into the game
From all of Holder’s debacles
To the present reeking mess-
What will be exposed to sunshine
Is just about anybody’s guess...
