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....

Some poor skee repining for freedom fell into the wrong place.

Good morning!

My across the road neighbors dogs seem to have gotten out of their kennel, and my two are repining at the windows because the 2 from across the road are currently in my front yard!!!!!

[Texan5]

Morning!

The democrats are constantly repining,
Hand wringing, pouting and whining
Over Iraq, but the constant din
Proves the want "quagmire", not a win.

[xsmommy]

xshub was repining this AM about Donovan McNabb's lack of performance last night.

[Gabz]

GO BUCS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NeoCaveman]

i feel the need to repine about the new banana republic looking $20 bill. PEACH COLORED HUE? what are we a nation of FRUITS?

As someone said on that thread "it's Queer Eye for the Treasury guy" LOL

[xsmommy]

oh no, they are doing the NEENER NEENER at your two? how funny! the birds used to do that to xspup. xs2pup could give a dang about birds. birds drove xspup out of his little gourd!

[xsmommy]

that was hilarious!

[secret garden]

I thought you had those little gourds surgically removed?

[NeoCaveman]

Almost half the quarterbacks in the league had below average games this weeks. Next week is only a 5 days away.

[xsmommy]

didn't matter, he got testosterone out of the ozone layer, that was his problem. xs2pup has his gourds up inside him somewhere, hiding, and in about 6 weeks there will be a surgical expedition to go ahunting them! ; )

[secret garden]

David Carr did not get sacked. That made it a tremendous game for him and maybe set a team record.

[Gabz]

LOL!!! Birds don't seem to bother my 2 - and the hummingbirds basically ignore them!!!

[xsmommy]

the filthy, stinking little xs2pup is bound for the groomers today.

[xsmommy]

oh are you wishing me a happy FR anniversary? i just noticed your tagline and had to go and look, i had forgotten when i signed up here. thanks!

[secret garden]

No, it's a note to my spouse. But happy anniversary to you too!

[NeoCaveman]

David Carr did not get sacked. That made it a tremendous game for him and maybe set a team record.

I bet that was a team record.

Anyways: Almost half of anything are below average by definition of the word average :-)

[xsmommy]

a note to your spouse? shouldn't you have left it on the pillow or on the breakfast table or somewhere????

[secret garden]

Can they come pick up the sleeping furbombs from my yard?
