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".
panache [puh-nash,-nahsh]

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 weather forecast for tomorrow evening-Friday AM have added light snow to our cold and drizzle-have they done the same to yours, Whyisa?
Wow. So this is the SlowJoe comment “stand up Chuck” that will only be seen or heard in conservative circles and the media will pretend it wasn’t said
exactly.
Thank you for finding that! And I’ll gladly see her fictional account of the trailer and raise with my real hunting shack account-she can walk in MY boots and those of many other single moms, and see what tough really is...
When I was reading this info yesterday, was I correct that her first divorce ended with the husband taking the house and boat, and her with three vehicles? Or was that the second husband?
Too late, I think-it had someone on the SA news choking last night, and it was all over Fox news this AM...
I forget which it was-I want to say the second-but she didn’t make out badly in either marriage-she just chose a prey item with more bucks when she snagged the older lawyer...
We just traded one of veteran D men for a kid from NYR. Mixed feelings abound.
McDonald’s wife sounds like a clueless lunatic-all the common sense of someone like Miley Cyrus...
I think you need to be thinking long term at this point, right?
oh, man, I will never get my cookies baked if I catch up on this thread. Peanut Blossoms here I come. Someone please summarize for me!
Put a Hershey’s kiss in the middle of a peanut butter cookie. ;-)
Caps need to do something drastic but I doubt they will. Soooo depressing.
First batch is in the oven, the kisses all unwrapped. Smells pretty good here...but that is not the summary I had in mind. I smell a good old fashioned scandal brewing.
The name sounds so nice-and I don’t even like peanuts or anything that smells or tastes like them.
“scandal brewing”-indeed the way to brighten the heart of us mean conservatives during a cold spell, and we even have a couple to choose from...
Oh, cool! They are talking about Wendy’s lies on the 5 right now, and Beckel is defending her badly...
They’re one of my favorite cookies. And there is no elegant way to eat them. Too awkward to bite, just shove the whole thing in.
You don’t pick the candy kiss off the top first? Then you can bite the cookie...
