Fantastic word game

[scanman1]

I definitely would have watched it by now if my DVD player hadn't broken down.

 

[dmargalotti]

If my DVD player hadn't broken down this past weekend, I might not have rediscovered my old VHS tapes of The Benny Hill Show.

 

[JeffM]

The Benny Hill Show may not have been politically correct even back then, but it was great funny stuff.

I would be much in favor of Cher joining Olivia for band camp concerts! If Olivia is the sugar, Cher is the spice. And both very nice.

 

[dmargalotti]

Funny stuff at Illusions this past weekend as WMC couldn't get his 1976 AMC Pacer started and so a bunch of us had to push it so he could pop the clutch to get the engine going.

 

[scanman1]

Going to a store and finding great bargains on items I need is a good thing.

 

[WMC2006]

A good thing to remember this time of year is the upcoming daylight saving time change which will occur in the early morning on Sunday November 1st.

We'll be falling back which means we'll have one less hour to party at Illusions. Nahhhhhhhhh, we'll find a way to keep the party going, right Kenny and Dave??

 

[scanman1]

Sunday November 1st is the day after Hallowe'en; and All Saints' Day.

 

[dmargalotti]

All Saints' Day would be a great day to watch the old TV show, "The Saint" with Roger Moore.

 

[Silkie]

"The Saint" with Roger Moore ran for about seven years, while Bond, James Bond, movies spanned a period of about 12-13 years, but I ask you truly, how many stars to you see today who carry themselves as such suave, debonair and distinguished gentlemen?

Not many, lemme tell you. They have no presence! Not even when they are in the room. And how did they get to be stars anyway?

 

[dmargalotti]

Such suave, debonair and distinguished gentlemen would never be found hanging around with the crowd from Illusions!

 

[Silkie]

The crowd from Illusions will eventually get some culture since the buyout, but in the meantime they stared blankly at the interns when they arrived for the 80s Rockfest in monogram sweaters, poodle skirts and saddle oxfords

 

[scanman1]

Monogram sweaters, poodle skirts and saddle oxfords aren't likely to be found as part of the wardrobe of a modern day woman.

 

[Silkie]

A modern day woman like Thoroughly Modern Millie wears the classic dress, beads and head wear of the Roaring 20s.

 

[dmargalotti]

The Roaring 20s were not nearly as much fun as The Naughty 90's.

 

[WMC2006]

The Naughty 90's were a grand time behind the scenes at the Fantastic Word Game (TFWG as The Lovely Olivia knows).

 

[scanman1]

The Fantastic Word Game (TFWG as The Lovely Olivia knows) still has, and always will have, the single sentence only rule.

 

[CTListener]

The single sentence only rule can be circumvented through use of the semicolon; at least, I think it can.

 

[dmargalotti]

It can be circumvented through the use of a semicolon...or the ellipsis which is something that tends to drive WMC crazy.

 

[Silkie]

Something that tends to drive WMC crazy involves any day when the library interns are so busy they cannot bat their eyelashes at him when delivers edible truffles carefully sniffed out by Wilbur after WMC rescued him from the fair.

 

[WMC2006]

Edible truffles carefully sniffed out by Wilbur after WMC rescued him from the fair is a great thing but what's not a great thing is the foolish and unneeded use of semicolons and ellipses especially when the writer doesn't know how to use one or the other correctly.

Perhaps Wilbur can sniff out and distribute pamphlets and the proper usage of such things.
