FRIDAY'S ABSENCE

FRIDAY'S NON-ENTRY

I apologize to all of you who were waiting breathlessly on Friday for the latest entry in my ongoing diatribe against the misuse of the English language . My server was doing some sort of upgrading and I could not post an entry.
I hope the entries below will suffice to assuage the pains.

SATURDAY CHALLENGE

Insert, or correct, punctuation, spelling and grammar in the following so that it makes sense.

Yesterday was fun I played golf, I played good and won a big shiny trophy I'll put in on the mantle so everybody can read the inscription; booby Prize Duffers Invitational 2007.

TODAY'S WORD

The words for today are "assuage" and "suffice".
Define the words and use them in sentences. You may not use the one above.
