Good Morning Students. Welcome to class!

Class is now in session. The rules are simple; you get a grade if you use the WFTD in a sentence, haiku, limerick, or quatrain. You get a "+" if you make a link, or make the teacher laugh, or you offer the appropriate bribes. I hold the grade book; the whip and chair.

NewsChannel5 reported that the Department of Homeland Security is ordering two Korean sisters out of the country, saying they don't qualify for visas. But the cloistered nuns are hoping a higher power will intervene.
The women live as cloistered nuns with the order of the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration on Euclid Avenue in Cleveland. Inside, the nuns pray for the entire world 24 hours a day. They never leave the church except for when they need medical care, and they have almost no contact with the outside world.

Good morning!

First? Top Ten?

Doesn't Anne McCafferty writes pernicious stories about dragons?

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!

Hey I was going to use that example, the moment I saw the word for the day.

The humor is delicious but
The motive is pernicious

Carol Mostly Fraud officially announces her White House run.

[mikrofon]

The American people will never let Hillary's pernicious schemes for the country see the light of day.

Homework:

It is appropriate that the pernicious, election-stealing Lyndon Johnson lived near the Pedernalas River in Central TX.

Dixie Chicks Uninjured In Plane Mishap

With the Dixie Chicks' plane on the ground
A building was hit turning 'round
Though the girls are pernicious
And real nasty, and vicious
No connection to Bush could be found

[My back yard]

All I can think of is 'pernicious knid'. Hmmm, I will try harder.

[sonsofliberty2000]

It may be a bit pernicious
To think Bill sees Hillary as delicious
but Monica is gone
so is her thong
and Hillary is a lot more seditious

Hey it may not make sense but it rhymes :-p

I can not think of two more pernicious people than Bill and Hillary Clinton. He nearly destroyed this country in his 8 years playing 'hide the cigar' and now she wants her shot at destroying this country. The sad thing is that they are worshiped by many ignorant people.

More evidence that California is getting weirder by the second: Here is an item dealing with a truly pernicious development at the Sacramento Bee. Who needs that silly little thing called the First Amendment, anyway?

Gossip has pernicious repercussions, as much for the gossiper as for the gossipee.

A pernicious effect of socialised medicine. Typical.

The following uses today's word and ends in my favourite line in all the literature I've read. It's from Gulliver's Travels (published 1726), the King of the Brobdingnagians (the giants) has just listened to Gulliver's description of European (and by extension at the time, North American) politics, society, and warfare. You'll note in the King's response things haven't changed much: this is what he said:

My little Friend Grildrig, you have made a most admirable Panegyric upon your Country: You have clearly proved that Ignorance, Idleness, and Vice may be sometimes the only Ingredients for qualifying a Legislator: That Laws are best explained, interpreted, and applied by those whose Interest and Abilities lie in perverting, confounding, and eluding them. I observe among you some Lines of an Institution, which in its Original might have been tolerable, but these half erazed, and the rest wholly blurred and blotted by Corruptions. It doth not appear from all you have said, how any one Virtue is required towards the Procurement of any one Station among you, much less that Men are ennobled on Account of their Virtue, that Priests are advanced for their Piety or Learning, Soldiers for their Conduct or Valour, Judges for their Integrity, Senators for the Love of their Country, or Counsellors for their Wisdom. As for yourself, (continued the King), who have spent the greatest Part of your Life in Travelling, I am well disposed to hope you may hitherto have escaped many Vices of your Country. But by what I have gathered from your own Relation, and the Answers I have with much Pain wringed and extorted from you, I cannot but conclude the Bulk of your Natives to be the most pernicious Race of little odious Vermin that Nature ever suffered to crawl upon the Surface of the Earth.

Martin plays liberal POTUS
But his actions are pernicious
Deep in the left wing
He can have his fling
Why must he foist his views on us?
