I'm beginning to think we need a complete taxonomy. For instance: Do poets flounce in prose? Should we, in fact, allow a poet to flounce prosaically or should we perhaps force them to use meter?

I beg to differ. I think they're very stylish. And that stirrup is quite useful for disembowling people who disagree with me!

I think you mean spur, the pointy thing at the back of the boot. Stirrups are attached to the saddle.

If a poet must flounce, they really should do it in iambic pentameter. Anything else would be crass and detrimental to the high status poetry gives them.

I love the smell of irony in the morning...

I'm thinking MacCannister needs to issue a fiat:

Poets Mmust Flounce in Rhyme Royal.

N.B. Haskins may do it in lower-case. I hear that's how he rolls, anyways.

You know, cray, she has the ability to change your avatar and make it stay changed forever. As in "no more battery."

Just thought you might like to think about that. :)

i thought about that but then i thought, 'hey cray, you didn't do anything that would warrant any punishment so why not try to find out what's going on in medi's head?"

right? no problems there, huh?

if there is i can send her a nice microbrew or perhaps a martinelli giuseppe and luisa zinfandel.

Like all mods, I'm sure Lisa can be bribed. I'd say go for it.

Apparently you'll need to up the ante, cray.


i see that.

i have several martinelli's that rate a little bit higher than that,...
jackass hills???



no wait,...i'm going to offer up a kistler chardonnay first.
if that's no good then we'll throw in a kistler pinot.

if that's no good i'm going to have to part with a sean thackrey.

if all this fails i'm going to send a case of pa's finest yuengling lager and be done!

I don't think Yuengling is going to do it. Can you find a nice, craft porter?
