On of these days you'll be correct, expecially if you keep practicing.

Thank you for playing.

Dr. Morgan asked Mr. Rudd what he thought about having rumble strips at this intersection.

Mr. Rudd replied that this is certainly another option and asked if they would prefer to have these on Route 208 or Route 250.

Chairman Barnes said that he would agree with whatever it takes to stop the fatalities.

Chairman Barnes explained to Mr. Rudd that most of these accidents involve individuals that are not familiar with the intersection or individuals coming down Route 250 that are not familiar with the area. Chairman Barnes stated that he would appreciate any help that Mr. Rudd can provide.

Mr. Rudd said that there is a possibility that they might be able to install signs to alert drivers if they are unable to install the light.

Too funny, I was going to mention that the thing reeked of a pink floyd lyric - and that started from the line:

"I got ancient blood on my hands,"

then I noticed the disclaimer at the end.

Sheriff Fortune informed the Board the he was here this evening to speak about the intersection of Courthouse Road (Route 208) and Three Chopt Road (Route 250). Sheriff Fortune explained that they had a fatal accident at this intersection on Saturday April 3, 2004. Sheriff Fortune requested the Board to write a letter to VDOT to have them take another look at this intersection to determine if they can put in a stop light in place of the red flashing lights that folks don’t pay attention to.

Capulet is also a word meaning swelling caused from bruising...

just so you know I looked it up:

in·dign - adj.

Archaic. Unworthy.
Obsolete. Shameful; disgraceful.

There should be a separate category for this kinda stuff.

"last piece of my" - what?
again in l3 - this is on purpose, right? Why?

oh - I see you've been informed already.

This would be a nice piece with the self-pity dialed back maybe one notch.

Quite a bit of good in it.

Saying Blake is a bad poet - is that like saying Ringo is a bad drummer?

A way of saying he has no ambition?

I'm still noodling the runes and figures. Thinking stockmarket, but that goes against the ambition thing.

Lost his ambition?

you said "dreams are to be realized" then added it again.
on A Proclamation to Our Lord by Joe-joe 27 Apr 2004, 7:08 AM
Not my cup of tea - but, clear enough.

Is there a poetic way to express this?
on Lose That Too ! by recherche 27 Apr 2004, 7:06 AM
is "daffolds" right?

Cadence is consistent, good job with that.
