Yes, Sectant, your memory is sound. My Father, Joseph, had to catch 22 flights to the UK to bring Major Major home. A serious dilemma, but as he said, "That's some catch, that Major Major." "It's the best there is," I agreed. Reply #22. Jul 29 18, 10:23 PM |

Well, Mark, like any Blog, I just read the rules and posted what was, for me, an inspirational story. Like any Blog unless you change the rules and don't tell anyone, that is. But this isn't my Blog, this is Jo's Blog, so maybe she can answer more fully. I'm still working on my poem. Who knew poetry was this easy? I am wildly inspired about the poem I am going to post! I want to win that coveted ribbon again this week. Reply #25. Aug 01 18, 8:35 AM |

I'm guessing the clues were in the cute little book that I have not yet read, that must be the catch... Reply #29. Aug 01 18, 1:40 PM |

I just don't get it, I'd appreciate not being made fun of, because of it. Reply #32. Aug 01 18, 2:13 PM |

You don't "get" me repeating what you just said to me in your off the charts movies thread? It's just an expression. You've probably seen it dozens of times in here. It's a quote from "Pirates of the Caribbean." However, I don't think that's what you meant when you said it to me. Oh well. Reply #33. Aug 01 18, 2:22 PM |

Elle, Why visit the movie thread, just to make fun of it? Couldn't you have just walked away, if you thought that little of it? When I said that I didn't get it, I was referring to the cryptic nature of the blog. I was actually trying to play nice on Jo's blog, I just don't understand what it's all about, particularly after your catch-22 poem. I wasn't playing dumb, I don't get it (the blog), or the poem.

It's currently raining, and in summer around here it tends to come down in sheets. Reminds me of when I was in rehab, and one of the physical therapists was talking about the storm. The grass was dry and crackling under people's feet when they walked. So she said (I forget her name, not that it really matters:) "The grass is probably like, 'O yay... rain,' and then it comes down and it's like, 'oh.' As people say around here, there's either a drought... or a flood. Reply #35. Aug 01 18, 7:34 PM |

I don't want to see this Blog die, just because someone doesn't "get" how it works. I don't have a story quite yet, but I'm working on one, so I'm bumping this back up. I'll bet I could write a poem in about 15 seconds, though, following the guidelines for other poems I've read. Look how great my last one was. Or don't. Reply #36. Aug 03 19, 3:52 AM |

A Poem By Elle if i had $1,000,000 i could not only sing about it like "the barenaked ladies" but i could also retire or so i thought until i realized i have $1,500,000 and when i spoke with my investment advisor recently in rapt and blessed excitement and sureness he assured me i really need $2,000,000 now in order to live off the interest on my investments so no new songs for me or the ladies clothed or otherwise (punctuation, full stop) time to sell the farm in more ways than one Reply #37.

Another Poem By Elle i wonder how all the bat lovers out there would feel about discovering a bat flying through the cabin of your airplane at a cruising altitude of 37,000 feet with no way to escape for you or the bat? if i had been on that plane they would still be trying to drag me or coax me out from under my seat. do items in your cellphone camera appear larger than they really are? that looks like one fast and enormous flying rodent and based on the screaming no one even thought about building it a house. were they all treated for rabies after that emergency landing? if you think they just let that bat go that didn't happen but it sounds nicer i suppose. i mean bats are people too except they're not, not really and not where erratic behavior is concerned. bye-bye bat Reply #38.
