Word of the day is ‘bloviator’ (19th century): a speaker of empty rhetoric and blower of hot air; someone who talks a lot but says very little.

[Mik4clay]

Great idea with the masks ❤️❤️!

[merrieeee]

Thought this was really funny!

[merrieeee]

Word of the day is 'braggadocio' (16th century): an empty boaster and strutting swaggerer. Also used for the bluster and bombast they produce.

[merrieeee]

An ultracrepidarian (19th century) is one who consistently holds forth on a subject they know nothing about.

[ldyjocelyn]

This holds both nationally and with students I work with.  Sigh.

If you want to see where you are in line for the vaccine!

You're lucky.  I'm behind 10.5 million in my state.

I got off my keister today and donated to the NIP-

Because- I’ve never donated to this foundation, and it’s about damn time

Because- it took me some years to realize I’m still a claymate and always will be.

Because- 30 years ago today the American disabilities act was signed into law.

and Because- I love the guy and always want to support his wonderful causes.

Ok and I want us to hear the song!  Almost 30,000$ already, they should reach that goal & beyond! 🤞

Well, in the 18th century, 'trumpery' described something 'of little or no value; trifling, paltry, insignificant; worthless, rubbishy, trashy'.

This was my Mom’s Nativity scene, which went to my sister and then when she passed came to me. 

Five minutes later...

[Mik4clay]

Aww that’s sweet.. that nativity is beautiful! My favorite Christmas pieces are the ones that are handed down and we bring out each year too 

My oldest sister passed on her 59th birthday- I like to think they are still all around us.. maybe your sister or mother are channeling through your kitty 😁

[merrieeee]

Word of the day, useful for all video meetings, is 'nod-crafty': a 17th-century adjective meaning 'given to nodding one's head with an air of great understanding' when you're really not listening at all.

[ldyjocelyn]

Guilty as charged.

My Mom passed that on to my sister many years ago, only to have my sister die in a car crash just over 20 years ago.  I've had it ever since.

And yes, my sister would have LOVED having my cat be part of the nativity.  "Away in the manger, no room for the cat..."

This video popped up on Facebook and not many have seen it.

[Mik4clay]

Do you guys remember this? I remember being so jealous of that family getting a special Xmas concert, I would have died 

I’m going totally going off of memory, but it was part of a segment on a show.. maybe an “idols giving back” part of AI  (?)

[merrieeee]

WOD:

A ‘toady’ - a fawning flatterer - began as the ‘toad-eater’ of the 17th century: a quack’s subservient assistant who would eat a ‘poisonous’ toad before a gathered crowd and be ‘miraculously’ cured by the quack’s potions

I don't believe he was ever part of the "Idols Give Back" specials -- many fans were upset about that.

I had to go through my list of TimeLines which I have (and really, really do need to put somewhere in the TimeLine thread -- I have a whole bunch in a Google Drive file), and this was from a show called "Dear Santa" that was on Fox.  December 9, 2005.
