Well, we now have at least three girls laying. We have a good variety of eggs working. White, green and brown. It is always interesting to see the different colors. Personally, if I were buying eggs at the store, I would always go for the big brown eggs. Not sure why, just a preference. I got all the watering done by noon today, so that was good. At one time I had six sprinklers running. Right now I am watering the trees in the back. Thirty minutes a piece, and no rain in sight according to the prognosticators. Every day next week is expected to be over 100 degrees, averaging about 102. It was a pretty nice, temperate and rainy spring, but we are paying for it now.Impertinent -- Adjective. 1. irrelevant. 2a. not restrained within due or proper bounds especially of propriety or good taste. b. insolent, rude. The councilor apologized for the impertinent remarks he had made during the last meeting.
Did You Know? English speakers adopted both impertinent and pertinent from Anglo-French in the 14th century. Both words derive from the present participle of the Latin verb pertinere, meaning "to pertain." Initially, impertinent was used for things that are simply not relevant (as in "impertinent to the issue at hand"). Over time, it came to be used for things that are not only irrelevant but rudely or inappropriately so, and later for people who are just straight-out rude.
