purport mileage tamperings

Some purport that the urge to travel is the sign of a grand man. But it would be false indeed to measure grandeur by mileage travelled. Many would indulge in the tamperings of the travel meter to appear as though they are grand.

Flour Existenstialism Central

Flour Existentialism Central

Spirituality is the water that binds the flour of the flesh into a pliable dough. Existentialism would have us believe that there is no greater meaning or purpose for our being on this half-baked planet. I, however, subscribe to the increasingly old-fashioned notion that there is a central being--call It what you will and the argument of activity/passivity notwithstanding--that caused us to be, that kneads us.


dissemble contraindicated rubric

dissemble contraindicated rubric

Plotting and planning for years Agnock would be required to dissemble his intentions for how he would rule if he were to achieve his goal. This platform was contraindicated by his advisors ,which contradicted their agenda. Wanting to institute a fair and honest reign forced him to create this intricate rubric so that those helping him would not know the true outcome of their devious devices.

Skeptical Scrutinize Pulverisation

Skeptical of his opponent's chances of coming up with a retort simple enough for him to scrutinize, the pugilist thought pulverisation of his foe was the better alternative to debate.

Francophonic; Parity; Thalassocracy.

Francophonic; Parity; Thalassocracy

The earliest Francophonic settlers in North America, came to be kown as the Acadians. There was a Parity between them and the native peoples, creating a strong bond. This bond was unfortunatly broken, when the British, trying to secure their thalassocracy in the New World, eventually expelled the Acadians.

Subterfuge; centrifuge; Fugal

subterfuge

fugal

Obtaining permission for even the simplest pursuits at the Euphonic Academy of Music was like going through a centrifuge: you were sent running in circles from department to department until you were so worn out it felt like your mind, body, and spirit were completely separated. Ever since a small group of students were expelled for attempts at subterfuge in an elaborate plot to use canonical music to take over the administration of the school, many musical forms were heavily restricted and regulated. Even fugal pieces did not escape proscription.

"I shouldn't have to rewrite my lecture," the new herbology profeser pleaded to her supervisor who apparently felt the need for her to disambiguate much of her lesson. "It's not susquipedal, or even very confusing. The supervisor, unfortunatly, did not realize that the Chinese Furtunella family housed of the kumquat fruit.

Universal Urine Eureka

Let me speak of a universal truth regarding domestic feline ownership. Cat urine and cat feces stink, and stink abominably. Though this fact provides no 'Eureka!' insight, you will need a good steam vacuum cleaner.

amnesty

A harsh night of copius amounts of alcohol, and junk food, left me with a dire need of uncontollable purgation to my system. There was nothing I was able to do throughout the next day, other than to fritter it away in lonely infirmity. My body cried out for amnesty from the deranged abuse I put it through, day after day.

To caress you with heart-lust, longing and desire I cannot forbear.
Walk this beaten path without you I cannot forswear.
Should a millennium and fortnight pass, still will I be there.

stalactite
pervasive
caricature


I nearly cracked my head on the stalactite hanging from the ceiling of the fissure in the mountainside I was hidden in. The cavern was dark and cold, with a pervasive odour of mold throughout. To a clausterphobic, it would be viewed as a caricature of Hell on earth.

He'd always been an affectionate and loving husband to her. Nonetheless, she had effectively cut him out of her life with no explanation nor apology. It didn't help that she had left with a rich and influential businessman.

Beating and swearing at the dough while puffs of unbleached flour leaped into the air as if trying to coat her anger, Molly plotted her revenge against her husband's (My Husband!) polygamy.
"Ohh, I'll show him to marry and mess around with other women!" she rasped as she finally began roughly shaping the dough in the quiche pan.
Slipping the pastry in the oven, a devilish grin formed on her taut lips as she caught sight of just a few tips of the many porcupine quills she had carefully placed upright in the filling.

Her first job, and she felt so debonair standing behind the counter of the Bell Telephone Co. collecting payments.
When that creepy looking, mechanical derilect walked in with his impotence was written all over his face, she thought she'd play with him. foling her arms underneith her breasts so he'd not be able to take his eyes off of them, she felt the omnipotence of her sexuality.

drew, I would love to try to play the game with your words, but I cannot find a definition for the first one.

Donair
Dirge
Doppleganger

Doncaster Airlines - Donair for short - boasted the cheapest flights in the land. Already he was regreting his decision to save money as the 1920's engines whinned like a dirge and the plane laboured to get airbourne. Although, he mused, I guess it's better than the fourth class seats they've nailed to the wings, they don't look very comfortable...oh my god, he cried aloud, is that Ken Bruce clutching his wooden chair for dear life, or is it a doppleganger!

If for some inconceiveable reason you must ever feed a leprechaun a bagel, be sure that it a plain, toppingless bagel. Even sesame seeds will drive him up the wall. You do not want to open that can of worms.

'Well there goes Lord Mhoram, Troy, and the Bloodguard', said Terass, 'but such a pity they couldn't stay longer as I wanted to show Lord Mhoram my new parquetry in the back yard'.
As Slen watched them go, he to wished he had had the time to tell Mhoram about the excelent progress he'd made with his saponify experiments.
He put an arm around his wife, smiled and said, 'they did enjoy the meal though, and thank goodness Lord Mhoram didn't ask how we've been coping with the jerboa plague!'
