3/13/03

Posted on 03/13/2003 12:31:29 AM PST by Bella_Bru

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....


tetchy\TECH-ee\, adjective:

Peevish; testy; irritable.

Etymology: Tetchy probably comes from Middle English tecche, "a bad habit," from Old French tache, teche, "a spot, stain, blemish, habit, vice."

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Homework:

(Local) I'm feeling testchy today since we have our second exam in the Physics class on Relatavity on Monday. Vectors, Lorentz transforms, 4-vector matrices and tensors, transformed magnetic and electricl fields at .9c, etc. Messy stuff. The varients and covarients (and their inverses) are tricky though.

(Since I'll be in San Francisco all next week, I was thinkin' maybe I could get out of it for a week, but noooooooooooooooooooooo, I'm gonna take it Monday night after he faxes it to the conference fax machine.)

i told xshub as soon as i read it on here. he was not surprised, because as rika pointed out, Natalie from the Chicks gave the anti-Toby diatribe after his 9/11 song. She is a little leftist and i hope that HD, who has expressed feelings of hotness for her, will now disassociate himself!
