thanks TSB via Jonathan for the definative review.

no one's ever used puerile to refer to my writing before.  in fact, i
assume it means something similar to putrid or useless.  let me look it
up.  well i'll be damned!  "1. Belonging to childhood; juvenile. 2.
Immature; childish." [American Heritage New College Addition. 1980]

this is really something TSB.  i was just watching "Clueless" for the
fourth or fifth time a couple nights ago.  i'm sure you've seen it. 
remember the part where Cory is working with her new friend and teaches
her a new word?  sound familiar?!  they learn 1 new word every week and
then try and use it in sentences during that week.  'guess my word for
this week is, 'puerile'!

thanks man.
