Learning is not a spectator sport. - D. Blocher
Thought flows in terms of stories - stories about events, stories about people, and stories about intentions and achievements. The best teachers are the best story tellers. We learn in the form of stories.

What amazes me is how many people think that prostrate means one of two things:
1. Selling your body for sex
2. A gland in a man's body.
It is most commonly used for a show of reverence and/or submission by lying stretched out on the floor/ground.
bobg- In fact when I was little and read how the angels would prostrate themselves before the lord I thought they were being rude.
rt- You're right I should have included that along with my definition. I looked up tired in the thesaurus for a good word that meant tired and was surprised to find prostate since the only definition I had ever heard was the same one you gave.
