That's one of my favorites. I often post that link when running a poetry thread, which I am, by the way, over at epigraphs. hint, hint

That rings a bell with me.
Or should I say "For whom the bell tolls"?

Trusty, Is there a bell to ring where one may logout as I'm very busy and forget when I've to silently go-going-gone and can't be in two places at once when I've, in actuality, gone!? Tillie, up at the top, where it says: [Home] [Help] [Search] [Members] [Calendar] [Profile] [Logout] Just click "logout."

Tillie, look at the top of the page:
If you are logged in, it will say "[Logout]".
If you are not logged in, it will sat "[Login]". If you go to any page without logging in, the forum thinks you are a guest.
Hope that helps. ;-)

BAck to dictionaries for a moment, this site draws from a long list, including a rhyming dictionary and a cool reverse dictionary (you put in a phrase for the word you want, and it returns a list of potential words that might fit your usage). onelook.com/

Oh, I like that. Just the other day I was reading to Carl and the word in the book was something like "prolific" but they would have been better served by a similar sounding, similar meaning word. Danged if I can't recall the exact word. I'm going to go hunt this one up.
I really get turned on by using the exactly RIGHT word. While hunt and search are similar, they ain't the same! I like to use the right word.
Brutus went hunting for a nice little hen, but when he searched in the coop, he found a little wren. 'Ere he took out his gun, set his eye on the sight, then to his delight, or rather my fright, I showed up under the barrel, and shouted, "take your finger off that cock!"
Why, oh why, do I have a one-track-mind?? When will I turn 62 and settle down??!
