Fantastic word game

[Stuart]

(WMC: I feel your pain. You should be "The Fantastic Word Game Czar". You have a great passion for this thread. ;D )

"Island Girl" is one of the few songs I do not like by Elton John.

 

[Basnya]

Elton John's real name is Reginald Kenneth Dwight which begs the question: Is he known as Sir Elton or Sir Reginald?

 

[raptusregaliter]

Reginald is a name one rarely encounters nowadays.

 

[Anyacat]

Nowadays, it seems our pal WMC2006 is looking things up, and I applaud his initiative.

 

[dmargalotti]

Initiative may help you win praise from your employer but there's no gaurantee your efforts will be rewarded with an increase in salary.

 

[Stuart]

Salary increases are one way to make employees happier.

 

[WMC2006]

Happier you may be with a pay raise but if you don't enjoy your job, you are still unhappy.


(What do you mean that NOWADAYS I look stuff up??? I ALWAYS look stuff up! ??? )

 

[Anyacat]

Unhappy men, like men who sleep badly, are always proud of the fact.

 

[Basnya]

Fact: The United States has more of it's population in prison than any other nation.

[WMC2006]

Nation of Radio-Info would like to welcome new members to this thread as long as they can write intelligentally.

 

[Basnya]

Intelligently was misspelled by the previous poster.

 

[WMC2006]

Poster after poster will now ream me for my misspelling.


(I was only testing you people. It was intentional. : :-[ )

 

[dmargalotti]

Misspelling is how the servants referred to the daughter of television producer Aaron Spelling.

 

[raptusregaliter]

Aaron Spelling was as rich as Croesus, but he died lonely and alone.

 

[Anyacat]

Alone, again, naturally.

 

[raptusregaliter]

Naturally-formed driftwood can be used as a redneck objet d'art.

[my dear Anyacat, "Alone, again, naturally" is not a sentence because it lacks both a subject and a verb]

 

[Stuart]

("Alone Again Naturally", is a song by Gilbert O'Sulliven. Song titles may be sentences. We will have to wait for an official ruling by The Dude!)

Objet d'Art tried very hard, however he was not picked to be a Musketeer.

 

[raptusregaliter]

Musketeer denotes a soldier armed with a musket, so why are the Three Musketeers always pictured with rapiers?

[Abiding by the Dude's authority is not a practice I would encourage or recommend! And stop trying to gain favor with Anyacat!]

 

[dmargalotti]

Rapiers are often seen in the movies when someone is challenged to a duel.

(Perhaps WMC will challenge Stuart to a duel with the man left standing winning the hand of Anyacat.)

 

[Stuart]

(OK, Boys, I did not want to mention this, Anyacat and I are E-Mail Buddies. She is a very intelligent, caring, sweet person. I have learned a lot from her. She has explained to me World War I, The Great Chicago Fire, and updated me on the snowy spring weather in the Chicago Metro Area. See I told you childish young men, your cheap comments, and cheap shots would not win you the paw of the Ever Sweet Anyacat. She is a feline with class. I even sent her an Easter Poem :-[)


"Duel", directed by Steven Speilberg, starred the late Dennis Weaver.
