No. Insel himself forgot an "s" in one of his own entries, and many, many people were kind enough to point this out to him publicly. A lesson he obviously remembered. BTW, what's an angilican?

Its insepeters fault, he made me hurry.

For your information Max, the Aniglicans are a minor sect of the English Anglican Church that serves the backward regions of down under.

They can't spell well.

Seldom counted, although relatively common?

Elections.

The move was illegal, because it didn't follow Max's, which came just before it (at least, not that I could see).

I propose a rule that asides should be discouraged, but -- where unavoidable (seldom, hopefully) -- allowed only in the context of play: no one should post commentary if it doesn't follow a move in the same post).

Sure, inselpeter, I would gladly follow the rule if I understood the rule.

What in red did you just say?

Nice word, etaoin, if somewhat overused in day-to-day conversation.

Idappaccayata

I don't appreciate people picking at Consuelo 'cause all youse awaders talk awful.


Note: the game definition of idappaccayata is given in the sentence above by example.
You see, it is inherent within the very act of talking awful that causes Consuelo to feel that she is being picked upon.

But the question remains, Great Buddha, does she enjoy it? ____ ()

delicious comment

(1) Did everyone look-up inselpeter's comment?
Inselpeter only...unders
tands "sporking".

( Duel entries lets individuals circumvent inselpeter's official, un-sporken, standards.)

delicious definition

(2) Dining exoticly, like in Conisbrough, Ivanhoe overeats unicorn steaks.


So...? I was in a hurry!

Cascading leaves announce December in November.
October's leaves decay silently, humously, eventually,
evoking Thanksgiving snows.
