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....

With all this excitement of a new student in the classroom, I can't believe y'all let this little piece of "BS" float by without a comment........

Yep, it is sad, when people hide behind the mods to play their silly taunting games. Cowards ALL, imo.

I think it would be more fun for you to have to keep following each of us all night to see if we are talking about you.......deal?
To: tpaine
And 256 was addressed to you. You don't listen very well, do you?
To: WhyisaTexasgirlinPA
See 253. You want to defy the mod, and play games wih the posting guidelines, it's fine with me.
As far as I'm concerned, no mods, & 'backroom' rules would be great for ALL of FR.

My God do you not have a sense of humor at all? Forgive me, I didn't realize you were that upset...... not another word from me........

That is totally uncalled for. We try to have some decorum on this thread. Care to apologize to me, or buzz off?

Well you have to admit, dubya, saying we use decorum in here was a little over the top, don't you think?
To: WhyisaTexasgirlinPA
