And MQ has so, too, in a postscript.

Aaargh!! That is what occurs to punish all who try for too much wit!

MQ -> Mary, Mary, Fairly Contrary


Alas, fair SpartI, just though it is, said sanction is too much for my scant skill! I must call for succour and admit my ignominy. I am but a worm, and do throw my soul upon your ruth, in supplication for compassion.

Max - looked up "ruth" and it doth bring to my mind a saying
"S't'ruth"
found as a cry in many myths from Britain.

S't'ruth (oft with varying combinations of writing marks) is a cry in habitual (but diminishing) custom in UK. From "God's Truth" .

Rod
And ROD sins again and again and again and again*, in blatant violation of what is taboo

I stand guilty M'lud. I saw a summary of communications and did not absorb that particular taboo topic as I did put into words my paragraph of insight on "S't'ruth". In apology I vow to brush up all violations of such taboo which this community doth commit but only on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

Ditto!

P.S. Good going, B96!

Ack! Ack! Ack!

Wow has said what is taboo, in talking to Max.

Jim has said it too, on his part signifying his individuality.

And ROD sins again and again and again and again*, in blatant violation of what is taboo.

"Out, out! Damn spot!" I say. Do not apply that symbol in this spot; go to an additional spot to do your foul work.

As for charming B96, who transforms Old Mama Hubbard with surpassing art, KUDOS! KUDOS!

And still, nobody says to Sparts, what you did in your yard this past Sunday. Boohoo.

That I can do. I did nothing in my yard on Sunday. I had to work on Sunday morn, using that which Mr A. Graham B. did form first. Following lunch it was off to worship, following which was supping with companions good, and thus was daylight past.

Work ? No way! Today was so fun. I did nothing. What sport! I think I shall do nothing again tomorrow. Why not? As my old pal Will Durant always said, nothing is occasionally a good thing to do, and always a good thing to say. That is a good saying from Will. Actually, I cannot say it now just as Will actually said it, but this is almost it. If you want to know what was said by him, you could LOOK IT UP. Try it! So long, you guys and gals! What fun it is to laugh and sing and talk this way. I also add "Good work, Cara Brigid!, as usual!
