Word of the Week ... VI

This week's Word of the Week is

"preposterous"

Yes, I know, it's another one of those long, funny sounding words - that's why I chose it. Its roots reach back into the 16th century.

Meaning: ridiculous, absurd, silly, unbelievable

Example: The new law of driving with vampire fangs is just preposterous!

Ok, now your weekly task: Can you come up with your own examples?
