    This list is to help you expand your vocabulary so you don't have to bring a palmtop every time you speak. I knew somepeople who overuse Microsoft Word's thesaurus that they can't speak the way they type. I'll start out the list. If you know any feel free to add to it.

    1. Flamboyant - flam·boy·ant (flm-boint)
    adj.
    1. Highly elaborate; ornate.
    2. Richly colored; resplendent.
    3. Architecture Of, relating to, or having wavy lines and flamelike forms characteristic of 15th- and 16th-century French Gothic architecture.
    4. Given to ostentatious or audacious display.

    2. flabbergasted - as if struck dumb with astonishment and surprise.

    3. gobsmacked/gobstrucked - UK English for utterly astonished, astounded.

    4. acrimonious - ac·ri·mo·ni·ous (kr-mn-s)
    adj.
    Bitter and sharp in language or tone; rancorous: an acrimonious debate between the two candidates.

    You gave a confident first impression as you entered the field of play.

    It was nice to see you give the two Club Assistants a briefing together; and you completed the pre-match preliminaries properly.
