Great idea, Kalleh. But if you come to NZ you need to come for at least 2-3wks, it's too long a journey for less. I can take time off work to show you round!! Is wordmatic coming to NZ this month? I'm having trouble using the PM here - if you're going to be in Hawkes Bay, PM me, wordmatic. We have the best wineries - lots of beer too of course, since I remember that's what you all mostly talk about! |

Excellent, bethree5!
At least, I think so; I have never quite understood the rules for DDs and have absolutely no talent myself for their composition myself. I'm sure Kalleh or one of the other experts will be able to give a more expert opinion. stella: I'm afraid you're too late; I believe WM got back from NZ a few days ago. Come on you raver, you seer of visions, Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine! |

Stella, too bad you missed Wordmatic. That would have been great. |

Here's one I posted recently in Community:
Budily Weiserly Richard, our Wordcrafter, Oh so politely said, "Pour me a drink." Bartender Ron, being Machiavellian, Served him a Bud, asking "What do you think?" And in response: Beerily, Fearily Richard, our Englander, Sipped from the glass of beer, Saying, "It stinks!" Kalleh, his sneaky friend, Drank from his stein and said, Supermaliciously, "Mmmm, you are wrong," and she Silently winks. |

Geez...too major errors in one week! First I post the wrong "it's"...and then above I posted 5 lines in the second part of my DD! What a complete dufus.
Here is my workshopped second DD: Beerily, Fearily Richard, our Englander, Sipped from the glass of beer, Saying, "It stinks!" Kalleh, his sneaky friend, Supermaliciously, Said, "You are wrong!" and she Silently winks. |

Would it help if I said I had meant "too MANY errors in one week!"?
Good heavens. It really hasn't been my week. |

I suppose you might have got away with claiming the errors were too major to be ignored.

Well, at least I was honest. I could have just gone back, changed the DD, and then the "too" post wouldn't have even happened.
So...which would you rather have, someone who makes mistakes and admits it or someone who makes mistakes and covers it up? |

Of course, though I also understand that most of that teasing was from you and not Bob.
