blitherer newbie Registered: 02/07/12 Posts: 45 Loc: Arlington, Massachusetts USA	The poseur aped the manners of the lummox to impress the dilettante, whilst the wastrel and the roue looked on with barely concealed smirks and titillation.

A recalcitrant roue, ignoring the distractions of the flummoxed lummox, played the part of a pontificating, pedantic poseur while waylaying the wealthy, hammered wastrel who was arguing with the equally dipsomaniacal dilettante.

Candy Pooh-Bah Registered: 09/21/10 Posts: 1705 Loc: down under	This is my entry In a prometean move yesterday, an appollaoian Tennessee man's dionysian bid of $122.03, won him a junoesque treasure, when the safe he bought on eBay was opened without palladium to revel an astonishing $26,000. I tried a fusion of modern story and ancient words...does it work? This is News Story if you want to read it.
