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

Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Hi, All!
For once my dog did not eat my homework!
A suppurating chest wound is an atrocious mess.
It’s ugly and smells quite bad, I must confess.
Which may be why maggots consider it a delicious treat.
Cleaning away to the bone in ways that are not neat.
Keeping those who may want to help planted in their seats.
Jack.
saw it on Thanksgiving day that year! very uplifting! LOL!
oh there are going to be some nauseated students after reading that bit o homework, LOL! A+++
The stink from the suppuration of the obama administration is so strong that people on the other side of the world hold their noses!!!!
A+++ there isn’t a big enough bottle of disinfectant to clean out the suppuration from this administration!
Very descriptive. I like science words. They make charting more illustrative.
Happy Bastille Day!
I don’t have to show you any stinking Bastilles.

Rush was talking about this on Friday. AFSCME gives a pittance to the UNCF, but expects them to follow orders to refuse $25 million cause it comes from the evil Koch Brothers.

It is a beautiful place. We were there a few years ago. I’d like to see Yosemite next.
Sounds nicer than Negatano.
