Ok who is up for this one- Debs ?, Letty ? Anyone ?


" It was wonderful that her friends should seem
so little elated by the possession of such a home,
that the consciousness of it should be so meekly borne.
The power of early habit only could account for it.
A distinction to which they had been born gave no pride.
Their superiority of abode was no more to them than their
superiority of person. "

Rolling Eyes Margaret Mitchell or the parody, The Wind Done Gone by Alice Randall. Gorsh, hiama. It is someone else's turn.

How am I supposed to answer when hiama asks me to trip the light fantastic? (Are you kidding? Sheeeze. No way) I would enjoy it, hi, (but I'm in the throes of labor). Shall we? (nice to find a male who isn't chicken about contracting my strep infection).

Tsk...tsk. For goodness sake, you two. My dance thing was representative of an author. I've heard of a lot of ways of dancing around something that you don't know, but this really takes the cake(walk) Laughing

clue: Deb's favorite author, I think.

hiama, it's would appear that the problem was resolved with a reboot of the machine.

Clue to the author: Ogden Nash replied to her brief verse with:
Girls who wear spectacles,
Quite often get their neck tickled.

That's it, hiama,

The name of the selection was "The Waltz", a fantastic monologue so typical of Parker's sardonic wit.

" Then I remembered the horses tied up in the bush. One of
them I could get with perfect safety. I ran round the end of
the store and into the thicket, keeping on soft grass to dull my
tread. There, tied up to a merula tree, were two of the finest
beasts I had seen in Africa. "
