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....

Did you see the pic of the guy that had the same misunderstanding you did about the nature of the hair transplants?
To: VRWCmember
I told the mod I've give Laz a good spanking when he got back and he/she replied "lol!" I'll have to bug him to find out what he said when he returns.

So true about the redeeming qualities and survival instinct. Once when my daughter was about 10, she wanted to watch a TV program before doing her homework, and had a fit when I turned the TV off and put her books in front of her. She wailed that she might just run away, and my husband chimed in with "Write if you find work". She never tried that one again.
