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”. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of 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....

Mistress Bella will be your substitute teacher til Miss Rika returns. Please be on your best behaviour until then. Also, Fridays are clothing optional.

Mistress Bella must go prepare for her nasty commute. See you all in a bit. XSMommy is in charge of discipline until then.
