(hmmm... it's only 8:30 pm my time. The article is saying I posted this 4 hours later, at 12:30 am..even without daylight savings, the time difference should only be 3 hours, yes?)
LOL... Actually, I thought that was at the comma and eventual exclamation point! ..or two !!
...Just for you, J4T
I like that reply! Good one.
Chloe.... Does the dictionary define "I"?
Oh yes, LOTS of " I's " ...lol... and all of the periods were left out on those pages so that they could keep going and going and going and going and going...
I expect the best synonym for "period" is ... in this case ... "spell" . As in "you are under my spell."
LOL... I agree, Petey.
Let's just call it.... shall we say, "PERIOD"?
Chloe
So we could "period" means "period" <period>.
Or could we?
"Me" as in "Not Me". "I" as in "Was I" as in declarative mode. "We" as in "You and Me". So "I" declared it to be and it turned out crappy so it was "Not Me", it was "them" meaning those bad guys.
lol. I'm not sure. Let's try some synonyms: "So we could "never" means "when Hell freezes over"
<sucker>.
I guess not.
LOL... they tried to blame "me, I and we"...period.
period.
lol, I'm confused. I was putting a line through the article's definition of period to follow what you said before that.
Chloe ,
Your article has inspired me :
Thanks !
Thanks for the link, Petey. There seems to be a problem with my email picking up new articles.
