Word For The Day, Monday, 3/4/13
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".
homologate; verb
verb (used with object), ho·mol·o·gat·ed, ho·mol·o·gat·ing. 1. to approve; confirm or ratify. 2. to register (a specific make of automobile in general production) so as to make it eligible for international racing competition.
Etymology: Origin: 1635–45; < Medieval Latin homologātus (past participle of homologāre < Greek homologeîn to agree to, allow); see -ate1
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....
Now the moron’s mouthpiece is claiming the sequester is Reagan’s fault.
I think the crap will fall on 0bama himself when all is said and done. Dems can turn on him now that a Republican is not elected president.
How did xshub’s appointment go? I am hoping if they didn’t fix it today, they at least gave him some happy drugs.
“the sequester is Reagan’s fault”
WTF-are those people delusional, or merely stoned?
On a lighter note, dod anyone get to see the first episode of “The Bible” on History channel? Or that other new series by the same people who did “The Tudors”-”Vikings”?
I watched both programs, and I enjoyed them-mostly Brits/TV actors in both, which is nice-I like it when the plot is more important than the actors, and Brits seem better at that than we are...
I’ve got it recorded, but haven’t watched it yet.
I watched a little of The Bible and thought it was well done. We were catching up on Justified, an action-packed show on F/X. Highly recommend it.
I’ve watched “Justified” a few times, but it sort of reminds me of a southern “Sopranos”-I’m just not that much into series unless they are about historical characters/happenings-but I loved “Rescue Me”, silly as it was.
I do/did like a couple of the real guyjob ones, too-”Deadliest Catch”, Mountain Men”, but most of the other “reality” ones are way too scripted...
I predict you will enjoy both. The fight and battle scenes are (so far) not as good as the ones in HBO’s “Rome” were, but it is early yet...

Allow me to clarify. I recorded the Bible series, not the Vikings.
Vikings makes me think of this:

He’d better tell his crew to cease and desist-Israel does NOT like to be interfered with, and they are not wimps like we have become in the last 4+ years-the Israelis are hard core...
LMAO! It didn’t remind me of that at all-I enjoyed it very much-I’ll be interested to see how historically correct it goes-there are a lot of legends connected to the historical character(s)-sort of like Arthur in England-till nobody knows if he was one person or a composite of famous warrior kings.
yinz got the ghey on your mind ; ) yes, men on the DOWN LOW tend to homologate. A+++
oh i so hope they had CAKE!
EEK EEK EEK! A+++ ; 0
yeah well not this sucker. He had the appt and the dr sent him for another xray. the stone in question, though he has many smaller ones, is 1.7 CENTIMETERS. that’s right, not mm, bc the dr corrected me when i assumed MM. It is very visible on the xray. It was blocking the urine from exiting the kidney, and had he not been seen when he was, it would have caused sepsis. they will use shockwaves to dissolve it on FRIDAY, so yeah, we have a full week of this fun to go through. he will need another procedure in a week or so to remove the stent, which is a rather thick looking tube going from kidney to bladder.
A+++ i predicted as soon as i heard he’d said something that the obams peeps would say he had dementia, and damn if David Plouffe didn’t say last week he was washed up. Close enough.
A+++ we deserve what we elect and we are getting it, in spades.
