Spot and define the strange item in each sentence, all heard today on CNN:

"He witnessed a graphic sexual act betwen Sandusky and a ten-year-old boy."

"It's mainly the chronic veterans that are homeless."

"He's a congenital amputee, born without arms or legs."

"He saw an explicit and horrible act."

("A graphic act" was used at least twice, many hours apart, by
different speakers.)
