SupremeDreamer on Woman in the purple cotton jacket(repaired) by INTRANSIT 13 Mar 2004, 7:57 AM
Well, its not bad, but it isn't something that gets my juices boilin either.. the moment conveyed might be the problem, or.. ah whatever. It is worthy of my vile score of seven in any case.

On a factual note, all three were together. The elderly couple looked like farmers. Sorry I can't be of more help than that. I was more focused on the one.

Even though I snapped, I still took careful consideration of your comment , and I waited until the right image came to me. Thanks again.
zodiac on Sometimes it Hurts... by mindsigns 13 Mar 2004, 7:26 AM
I have a funny feeling you started writing this as a non-rhyming poem and ended up by just making amateurish couplets, which makes this poem the epitome of hackness times two for being inconsistent. If you actually did mean for 'blows' to rhyme with 'clothes', 'mind' to go with 'wine', and 'lie' and 'night' to have some association, then please ignore pretty much all of the foregoing and congratulations on some really clever writing. Oh, and this poem could really benefit from being properly punctuated and capitalized and from having some cliches (like the last line) de-cliched.

Yep sure are and the people living there are decendants of Norse men and spoke a norse dialect ...the earliest records are to Thomas le Sclatere (Worcester : 1255), then Thomas Slater (West Riding: 1992?????!!!). nice and accurate init.

Original Question: Are you telling me a woman with a penis isn't original? Answer: (Specially Condensed in a special condensing machine so that it is condensed for special condensed usage.) Yes. No amount of Syruping the Spotted dick, Jeremy b-eing the handyross or indeed any verbing the nouneage will conwince otherwise.

What are YOU on about? The Orkney Islands are in far-Northern Scotland, right?

From "What's in a name? SLATER" (http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/DBY/NamesPersonal/Slater.html) "Are you called SLATER? This is an occupational name and in most cases will have referred to a man who made roofs. The caveat 'most cases' indicates that families with Scots connections and especially if they retain the old spelling 'Sclater' may derive their name from Kirkwall, Orphir or Sanday (Orkneys). There, the use of nicknames prevailed and in this case would have been conferred upon a member of the community who was thought to be sly or cunning. It was derived from the Old Norse 'slottigr' and the earliest example dates from 1492 in the person of Adam Sclater of Orkney. The name is now usually spelled 'Slater' but 'Sclater' is not infrequent in the north of England and in Scotland where the spelling 'Sklater' was still in use in 1823." Still no Greeks. Nor Mexicans.

You know, you've just revealed that you actually go through my archives, I'm amazed. But anyway, I've never heard of that band, and if I'm going to write something about a band or a pop singer, it would most likely be a parody about Britney Spears Wardrobe and her false claims concerning her "virginity". But I doubt I'd ever get around to that anytime soon.

Joe joe, the last intentional thing you've ever done is wipe your face off on a frozen waffle. You professional spackler.

Great buildup and ending, the way I shall be remembered. Change line to: "And find its . . ."

Update: I am doubly a dunce. The surname Slater comes from the Orkneys.
