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....
Teacher's note:
On Monday, I gave this word as an alternate for some students. It's all in good fun, but you do know that I get irked sometimes.
kvetch\KVECH\, intransitive verb:
kvetch, noun
To complain habitually.
noun:
1. A complaint.
2. A habitual complainer.
Etymology: Kvetch comes from Yiddish kvetshn, "to squeeze, to complain," from Middle High German quetzen, quetschen, "to squeeze."

LOL - it has been a saga.
We're planning on leaving Delaware and moving to the lower eastern shore of Virginia.
It's actually not as distant as it sounds, in fact the area we are looking at is only a srtaight 2 hours south of where we live right now.

LOL, that I can agree with, except for one thing - I have three bags and one box full of things that I picked up at CPAC! More this year than last...
I met a lot of super people this year and renewed some old acquaintences. Next year maybe I'll be able to put names with the faces! (ha! ha!)
Glad that you made it home safely! As much as I love to travel and do things, sometimes it's just nice to come home!

sweety, i am all for penises, i think i have made that clear in the past (ask Vast if you fail to recollect...)I am hardly a manhater, quite the opposite. i just feel for clara. she is Colombian, she was cuckolded in a most hideous manner, and she has a driving problem....

And he has to be guilty after all he has a penis And should, therefore, be incarcerated in a penile institution.
