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. Practice makes perfect.....post on....
pandemian \pan*dem*ee*an\, adjective
pandemianly; adverb
pandemiousness; noun
1. Vulgar
2. Sensual
The characteristics of Aphrodite have bewildered philosophers who, like Plato, made a distinction between the two aspects of the goddess, one Uranian "celestial," as the goddess of pure love, and Pandemian, or "popular," as the goddess presiding over ordinary love affairs.
Etymology: I couldnt find the etymology, double grades to the student who brings it to class!

Morning Gabz, how are the pup and child?
To: theDentist
LOL! Morning tD.
Was that the game that I saw, as I was switching channels, that had pouring down rain?
To: RikaStrom
Right now all is quiet on the home front....pup is sleeping under a chair, big girl is sleeping in my room and child is in school!!!
It's Friday, hubby is home - so that means I don't get to play online much today - he's going to actually make me do chores :(

That's a very good question Flurry.
I ran across in on an obscure little site; did some searching and found the snippit with the quote above, in a document talking about Aphrodite.
Whoever finds out where it came from gets double points. :-)
To: Gabz
Goodness, you would thing that with hubby home, and kiddlet at school, he could come up with something to do that is NOT chores. ;-)
To: RikaStrom
I guess I'll get a ZER0 cause I can't find a dang thing on it ; ) I get lots of ZER0's so I'm used to it.

You'd think so wouldn't you? Maybe what we're thinking of is a chore for some.

I couldn't find anything with google, which means that this little beaut must be researched the old fashioned way... with a giant encyclopedia or dictionary of archaic words. :-)
To: Flurry
LOL, not for our Gabz, I'm sure. I have faith that she can turn that situation around.
To: RikaStrom; xsmommy
The perennial presence of
pandemian prevaricators, pifflers, and purveyors of philth in the public panorama persistently provokes pain and puking amongst the populace...
[B!tch]
To: RikaStrom
Yup! I didn't see much of it myself, as I'd started the day at 4am and had only slept 3 hours before that.

Hillary's pandemian(1) sense of entitlement means she expects American Airlines to hold the plane jsut becuase she's running late.

The California Governor's recall
Has become a pandemian brawl.
With some actors, and two sluts
Competing with a peddler of smut.
