I am all out of breath from running with my cleats and keyboard strapped to my back. Now I see I am not even in the bracket. All of those picked seem to be longwinded, jobless (or soon to be), etc. voice of reason was so longwinded he had to have his own website. Whiskey and Easy shouldn't count since he is really about 10 posters with a different name every month. Whoever said brevity was the soul of wit clearly did not compete in an online message board poster constest.

Now that I have caught my breath I guess I will walk on home...

I hate to kick a kickman when he is down......so i will appeal to the wise Oz (Jack) to let you and another poor soul into the 2007 contest. What about it Oz?
Maybe he and that cross-dresser, laplageauxfolles ?

>>The sixty conspirators, led by Marcus Junius Brutus, Gaius Cassius Longinus, Decimus Brutus Albinus, and Gaius Trebonius, came to the meeting with daggers concealed in their togas and struck Caesar at least 23 times as he stood at the base of Pompey's statue.<<

Boo—I shave my head—no perm for me!

Now—"Brevity is the soul of wit" is spoken by Polonius in Shakespeare's HAMLET—Polonius is a blow-hard windbag—The line is IRONIC—never intended to be a truism—so—

We aint gotta be brief to be witty on the board—:)

[I'm not an English prof, sorry]shhh

"She was used to apologizing for her use of language. She had been encouraged to do a lot of that in school. . . .This is because their English teachers would wince and cover their ears and give them flunking grades and so on whenever they failed to speak like English aristocrats before the First World War."
