A man who uses a great many words to express his meaning is like a bad marksman who, instead of aiming a single stone at an object, takes up a handful and throws at it in hopes he may hit.
Colorful quote, AnnaS.
If Samuel Johnson were around today, he might have been drawn to the imagery of "carpet bombing" rather than stone throwing.
The thing about "carpet bombing", AnnaS, it does run the enemy out of its lair.
Just kiddin'. There aren't any enemies here. Just self-proclaimed "Fools" and those who are honoring them with the recognition they deserve.
