For all you newbies, strangers and otherwise tagged as "with many questions", the maximum setable default value of "show X many posts at a time" is 100, and this coupled with others' slow connection speed we do our best to limit threads at 100... whenever possible... for the good of humanity... not that we are all human here, but.

Guess I better come up with a good one so that this second thread will seem justified... hmmm...

Guess what book I'm re-reading...

Merrydol-Derrydol
Tom Bombadillo was
Left out of Lord of Rings
Some say, "That's wrong!"
Jackson had found it was
Ultra-bewildering
Couldn't fit Tom in film
Four hours long.

Derrydol-Merrydol
Tolkien's Lord of the Rings
made into movie, fans
are not amused.
Where was Tom Bombadil?
Incomprehensibly
Left out of film version
Fans feel abused.

Yes, I admit it, I watched it...

Slamminy-Bamminy
Clay the American
Wanna-be Idol guy,
Boy, could he sing!
He sang his songs so well
Ultra-Impressively
But Ruben took the cake,
And won the ring.

My stream of consciousness -----

Looked through *tical words at OneLook.com. Saw antiscorbutical. It had right stresses for a DD, what does it mean? Curing or preventing scurvy. That makes me think of oranges. Pirates and sailors ate them to keep away scurvy. Hey... wasn't there a big bruhaha a while back when Minute Maid got accused of promoting homosexuality with that Popeye and Bluto orange juice commercial???? Hmmm...

Plutoey-Blutoey
Popeye the Sailor Man
Ate lots of spinach, from
which he grew strong.

But now it's orange juice
Antiscrorbutical
Minute Maid claims that the
Gay theme is wrong.

(How interesting... when I did a spell check on this, the computer gave me the suggestion of Honda to use instead of homosexuality...)
