Word For The Day, Monday, August 25, 2003
The Verbivores | 8/25/03 | Teacher

Posted on 08/25/2003 5:20:00 AM PDT by RikaStrom

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....


inviolable \In*vi"o*la*ble\, adjective:
inviolability, inviolableness; noun
inviolably; adverb

1. Secure from violation or profanation: an inviolable reliquary deep beneath the altar.
2. Impregnable to assault or trespass; invincible: fortifications that made the frontier inviolable.
3. Not violable; not susceptible of hurt, wound, or harm (used with respect to either physical or moral damage)
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.
--Milton.

Etymology: [Middle English, from Old French, from Latin inviol bilis : in-, not; see in-1 + viol re, to violate; see violate.]

"I like baseball player butts"

Obviously, the word for the day on the Word Of The Day thread is not an inviolable subject. :)

I can't hit anything accurately with a pistol but I enjoy trying anyway. They are easier to carry around than a rifle. That one looks like it would be a bit more accurate than the cheap little .22 pistol I have now though. What's the price like on one of those?

Ammendment 1 is a rape. You can't read pieces of it or listen to Rino Riley's ads. Rino Riley's ads make it sound win win which it isn't. We are votin NO most employed people that can read are voting NO.

The only info I was able to read on it was in the Anniston newspaper. I should've known it was a bad thing though when I heard my MIL talking like it was great. They are big time liberals. I do like my in laws a lot BUT my MIL told me how much she hates George Bush last week and I almost lost my lunch. I've never heard her talk the way she did about him. She said she thinks that every word that comes out of his mouth is a lie... yet she liked Clinton... it boggles my mind that such normally nice people can be so blind.

Always ask, what did Clintoon do for you? Most anything they come up with was done by someone other than Clintoon. As for Ammendment 1, when the Newspapers and Teacher's Unions are for anything, it's a bad thing.

Nah .... No problem.

My dear Miss V went to see a volley tournament several of her her students were playing in, and I had the kiddo's to myself for the afternnon.

(It was left-over pizza, not fast food.)

(The TV was on the History channel and Discovery. And it was not blaring.)

(The stairguard was in place so they didn't run around "all" over the house. Just downstairs.)

You have playdough in the carpet now? :) Hope you don't have light colored carpet. I try very hard to prevent my toddler from finding out playdough even exists. Maybe when he is 12-13 he can play with it outside...

The Anniston newspaper has nothing but good things to say in the articles about Amendment 1. It looks like the Riley guy wrote the articles himself.

Most journalists take the RINO Riley press releases and file them under their names. It's a huge joke. The Alabama Republican Party opposes Riley's plan and he is a RINO Republican.
