I really do apologize about this, but the idea hit me and I had to go
with it, besides, it could be a fun game


so I"m sitting at my desk earlier, thinking of a conversation I had with
Zoe yesterday. I grab the dictioanry and look up a word, turns out that
this thing has like 7 billion different meanings, so I took some of
these and tried my best to make something out of them...now what's the
word? (No cheating Zoe, you'll know it almost immediately)




The individual
distinguishing
detail
the singular most essential
in this matter
our physical condition
is the end that we attain
and I postulate
that we must exist as two
and as two we set our line
with precisely
indicated positions
and at this very moment
immediately after the last
we balance on fresh weighed scales
and we've reached this place
where nothing seems to matter
this could pierce us with a thought
so we stand
fingertip to fingertip
the seas rush in around us
and we've just this scrap of land
turning slowly click by agonizing click
til the 32 have passed
and we're back where we began
but what's 11.25 degrees between friends
so I take my place 
ahead just a bit
so I can find the ambush
and you can march on in
what do we score to win
or does the game ever end?
and why do they take something away
when you finally get to twelve
if your stock in me
wavers for a bit
how far must it fall
before you sell it all
and if I hold your hand
can we slow the walk a bit
eternity is easy
moving at .0138889" in a step
perhaps a game of chance?
what must I roll
before the seven takes me out

I'd respond to this but, *sigh* what's the point?

It's really interesting, joe, but I honestly have no idea what the word would
be.  I think if you were to title he piece, however, the word would make a
good one.

I was going to point that out too, but Erin said it first.

<hands brighn an extra "N"> (;

you ass hole... just share this fight with everyone huh? i told you 
once i read this i would kick your ass, now just wait till i see you 
and we'll see who will be "coffee-makering" who!!!!!!! 

that was a rather pointed threat.

whoa.
that was vehement.

Brighn has it, but didn't just out and say it

At what point did you figure that out, Joe?

the first time :) you wanna make a get to do it, or is this just way too
silly?

excellent counterpoint

point point point point point point point..I hope I'm in on it despite 
my fried _seso_..my brains are burnt out.

I don't have a point.
I'm all curves.
<g>

You are very correct on that, madam.  Someday, well, actually, it could be
right now-- you'll cr..di..drive the men crazy with those curves.

<laughs>

what, you don't believe me?  sheesh, you have had at least a few of us who
have marveled at your loveliness, and I do not speak flattering words!

Seriously, Julie and I admired your pictures on the mainpage at
grexers.nether.net-- your senior pic is especially nice and very artistically
flattering.

lemme put it this way: I'm not particularly photogenic, though not so terrible
that I shy away from all cameras.  IOW, I had only the better pics of my put
up.  d=

ah.  I'm not terribly photogenic, either.

(sorry, you guys) Jon, I think you're the handsomest thing on two legs.

At the very least, you're betterlooking than my ex-.
