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....

4. Not susceptible of being profaned or corrupted; sacred; holy; as, inviolable honor or chastity; an inviolable shrine.
5. Unviolated; uninjured; undefiled; uncorrupted.

For thou, be sure, shalt give account To him who sent us, whose charge is to keep This place inviolable, and these from harm.

The dislocations combined with the fractures will make grip strength very weak.

On our Church's trip to Honduras there was a lady with us who loved dogs... After dinner (we had hamburgers) we told her the meat was really dog. (it wasn't) All the way back to our cabins we laughed and barked and howled every so often. When we got back to our cabin (she was staying in my room) she went into the bathroom and made herself throw up! We of course made fun of her for months.

Can't see what it is. I may need to go home, just now, I almost told a co-worker that I actually like that her slacks made her butt look big. Caught myself just in time...must be the back pain.

Buffalo meat has a bunch of flavor, (it tastes like BEAR..really...LOL) and generally isn't as fatty as most beef. I don't find it available as often as I would like to prepare it.

Okay...apparently the internet nazis here think that would be inappropriate for me to see. They have us blocked from the Victoria's Secret website too.

If it's range fed it's lean. If it's grain fed it's fatty.
