I’ve slid on an S And teetered on a T Fallen through an O Been forked with an E Speared by a V And hung up on U Derailed by an N And punctured by Q I’ve been failed by F And hooked by J Double crossed by X Left wondering by A Dangerous letters all These symbols so caustic Most unfriendly they are To refuse my acrostic [This message has been edited by Andrew Scott (edited 07-18-2001).] |

Very interesting in a Unique way Not the usual Queenly form Favored for most Just a simple look inside X-ray style At tripping over letters |

Aye ,then 'tis true . I'd heard rumors of this , but surely M'Lord will not tolerate such an up-rising within his kigndom . By your leave , your Majesty , as your military advisor , I offer this humble solution ... When attacked by the letters ( foot-soldiers to words ) Take heart in the knowledge that what you must say couldn't possibly be by the half as absurd than what would be written if they had their way There's gen'ral confusion who leads the whole pack according to rules which we're not privy to , and Lieutenant Lost ( who may never come back ) but it's not quite hopeless as yet " King " Andrew . Grasp firmly that pen which has power they say, (much more than the swords that these scoundrels might wield ) and hack through their midst 'til victorious day a " King " such as yourself, will have caused them to yield [This message has been edited by Dr.Moose1 (edited 07-19-2001).] |

Lady in White: I suppose it was. Thanks. Martie: If anything I’m a clever fool. Interloper: Thanks for lopping my way. Cpat Hair: I see that they wouldn’t cooperate for you either. Sir Tabin: Glad you enjoyed. Vicky: Smiles right back at cha. VAS: Just me having some fun. Thanks for the comment. General Doc Moose: If not for the constant leak of my pen I would write these letters into a word of two! Thanks for the laugh… I may be the KING, but YOU DA MAN… ahhhh MOOSE! Paula: Glad I could tickle your fancy. 2dalimit: I’ll do my best to supply. Thanks for stopping by. |
