Posted on 06/27/2003 5:48:56 AM PDT by hobbes1

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....

Today we mourn the passing of a Great American.

Americas Longest serving Senator, and War Hero, And a pretty manly man by any account

Senator Strom Thurmond.

rest in peace.


clymer adjective
Pronunciation: 'li-k(&-)rish

Date: 20th century

1. 1 : @SShole, but not your everyday garden variety butthole, One that truly deserves to be called "Major League"
2. Beneath Contempt

Etymology: Etymology: From campiagn trail 2000 from an observant remark by a remarkable candidate , . Date: 20th Century

********************************************************************************************************************************

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here is my example with WFTD:

In the span of one week, Two men died. The First Lester Maddox, was one of the names that became synonomous with Racism in the 60s, but to read his obit in the NYTimes, you would not know it. OF course it took half of the Obit to get around to the fact that he was of course a Democrat.

In contrast, Americas longest serving Senator Died Last night, A man of many accomplishments he lived to be 100, Stormed the Beach at Normandy taking Nazis prisoner at the point of the Pistol, winning the Bronze star, and fathering children IN HIS Seventies.

What did the headline in the Times read..."Strom Thurmond Foe of Integration Dies at 100

The author????? Adam the clymer Clymer.

Giving Credence to the credibilty of The President and the Vice President, the manis truly a major league @$$hole.

It appears men have biological clocks, too. I think some of the croquettes need to get over here and start trying to get me pregnant.

Cyber tried that the URL this morning, and it was not up here.

Last evening we had three calls. One was from the Arizona Republic (a liberal newspaper). Cyber got laughing when I told the teleperson I would never, ever buy that paper. I hate it. The teleperson was a little frustrated to say the least.

it times out for me. but CT has had their own "do nto call" list for a couple of years now, and it does work to a great degree. you still get calls, but they are few in number and involve groups you have already done business with. And they went from a dozen a day, to one or two per month.

I guess that it is now fortunate then, that SCOTUS has given their blessing to a...thorogh one on one probing of the aforementioned area.

Congratulations to Arghie on his great great. I'm sure he's happy I'm not the subbie. He usually got his quadruple F minuses from me!

I think someone should probe the cranial cavities of certain SCOTUS members seeking genuine intelligence. Someone with a LOT of time on their hands.

"great great" should be "great grade." But I'm sure he has a great great, too.
