Word of the Day Winner
 
So for today �s word of the day I �m pleased to announce MarionG as the winner:

�Algerining is what my son calls grandma �s (and sometimes my) comments on his lifestyle..
The "when I was your age" kind of talk.....
He calls it "All that geriatric whining" or "Algerining" in short
Typical scene:
He complains about the amount of homework.
I mention how much homework I did.
He growls: Mom could you just stop Algerining!
I reply "At least we learned to articulate!" �

Algerining is, in fact, �prowling around with the intent to commit burglary � (and has nothing to do with algae!)

Thanks a lot for participating!
