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.

The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....

All - I have to say bye for the day. I'm taking a neighbor and our son's into NYC this afternoon. I won four tickets to the Yankees/Indians game this evening. Go Indians! Although there season is over (grumble, mutter)
