humph. Hadn't counted on you making me look sillier than I was trying to make you look.
Today is:
ebullient \ih-BULL-yunt\ adjective
1 : boiling, agitated
*2 : having or showing liveliness and enthusiasm : exuberant
Example sentence:
Students found Mr. Brennan's science class to be a challenge, but his ebullient style made his lectures very entertaining.
Did you know?
Someone who is ebullient is bubbling over with enthusiasm, so it shouldn't be much of a surprise that the adjective "ebullient" derives from the Latin verb "ebullire," which means "to bubble out." (The stem "bullire" is an ancestor of our word "boil" and derives from "bulla," the Latin word for "bubble.") In its earliest known uses in English in the late 1500s, "ebullient" was used in the sense of "boiling" or "bubbling" that might have described a pot simmering on the stove. Only later did the word's meaning broaden to encompass emotional agitation in addition to the tempestuous roiling of a boiling liquid.
Now, 50 press ups and then run round the track twice!
I thought that blood is always red, because of the haemoglobin which contains the red pigment.
yeah and red blood cells?
Geez, third grade health class info
Veins - non oxgynated blood, taking it back to the heart
arteries - oxgynated blood, what goes out of the heart
isnt it also an artery that takes blood from the heart to the lungs? even though it carries deoxygenated blood
Can't remember what they are called though, I haven't done biology for years. You can probably tell...
