WORD OF THE DAY IS BACK!

It's been a long couple of weeks and we are all in need of some laughter. It's Friday! That means that it's time to use our Words of the Day in a sentence. We are combining the 4 words from last week with the three words from this week.

Here are the words and definitions:

Validate: to declare legally valid; legalize
Voracious: an insatiable appetite
Exonerate: to free from accusation or blame
Maritime: near the sea; concerned with shipping or navigation
Carrion: dead or rotting flesh
Maladroit: clumsy; inept
Tome: a large book

There are a lot of words, so we will accept 2 related sentences.
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!

LEagen:
After being lost at sea for three months, the crew felt validated in relieving their voracious appetite by feasting on the carrion of the maladroit deck-hand who had died. They justified the act based on the code in the Maritime Tome, which stated that in a life and death situation, sailors would be exonerated for any activity deemed absolutely necessary for survival of the crew.

LKubik
A page from a pirate's diary:

The maladroit pirate tossed the prisoner's carrion overboard to hide his voracious need to murder and also exonerate his vindictive image before returning to the captain's cabin to validate the maritime tome of treasure maps discovered there.


JHavlicek
In order to validate my voracious longing for the maritime wars of the last century, I took to the tome of "Victory at Sea".
In my maladroit way, I could not conceive of the destruction of human carrion sacrificed to exonerate the enemy who began this war.


CBelcastro
Noticing a carrion smell coming from the refrigerator in Student Services, the maladroit Counselor immediately lost her voracious appetite. She threw her tome to the floor in a rage and demanded to validate whomever caused this to not be exonerated before they left for their maritime vacation.

BWilliams
The maladroit cruise ship agent was refusing the validate the ticket of the voracious man with the rotting carcass, but after searching the tome of maritime regulations the man was exonerated, as there was nothing that prohibited him from bringing a carrion aboard the ship.

MNeugebauer
I was called to room 1903 as a student had thrown a large Tome at a teacher's head. The student asked me to validate that the teacher had a Voracious appetite and enjoyed eating Carrion squirrels. Hearing this statement, I all of a sudden became Maladroit and had to Validate the student's statement. The teacher could not Exonerate themselves from the statement and was thus taken away to the dean's office! The dean then told the teacher to find a house located next to the Maritime and buy it and never come back to PSHS

MHarring
A voracious vulture boarded a plane with two dead raccoons, and was reprimanded by the maladroit flight attendant, who claimed that FAA regulations allow only one carry-on per passenger; the vulture was then exonerated when he pulled out his own TSA regulations tome, which validated his claim that one carry-on and one personal item - in this case his carrion - are allowed when flying to his maritime destination.
