You know...I believe self editing can be detrimental to your health. Just lay it all out there Phalon...let it all hang out!

No, no, no. Sometimes I think it'd be detrimental not to use it. I rely on that auto-edit feature. I adore the modify feature, and am pretty fond of the delete button also. Sometimes I like to delete continuously. Makes me feel like I'm excercising - running in place.
Hey, I wonder if I go back and delete 1,940 of my posts if I can be 25 again?

Uh no..I tried that...it still counts the posts you made regardless.....so remeber what they say....you can't delete again...or was that go home again?

I thought the saying was, "You can lead a horse to water, but can't make him drink, regardless of the fact that it is hot enough to fry an egg on the sidewalk, and no matter that it is raining cats and dogs from somewhere over the rainbow."

One of these days I'm going to challenge you to see how many cliches you can get into one sentance and still make it believeable.

Uhm...let's back up here. Lies are associated with short legs? I'll have you know my short legs lie perfectly where they should. And that's the truth, and I'd vertically challenge you to prove otherwise.

Hey...Being vertically challenged is not as bad as being horizontilly challenged. Which I hear you have proved is defianely not the case with you. How's Hubs liking those new floor tiles.....I bet your thinking right about now that I have a way of running a subject into the ground....

When I said they lie perfectly where they should, I meant they were attached correctly, instead of coming out of my neck horizontally or something. Of course, then my foot would be in much closer proximity to my mouth, where it always seems to be stuck anyway.

Yes I would think that would make for easier removal. I have been reminded recently that my head has been residing in close proximity to certain nether regions.....which is uncomfortable to say the least.

Hey...you already used that one the other night. Have we gone through so many words that you're region, (reaching), for the recycle bin already?
Diurnal
(just thought I'd throw that one out there, because it's not a word you hear everyday, and I'm sure it's not a reoccurring one here.)

I accidentally walked into a men's bathroom once....the guy that was in ther almost missed diurnal....ok that was bad. Yes it's definately not one you would hear every day...and I think you only used it to see if I knew what it meant...lol...you'll have to try harder...

I've occasionally, as a kid, had my mouth washed out with soap due to my use of vocabulary.

Are you trying to give me hints here? That was a good one...almost didn't get it...was going to cave and look it up but it hit me all of a sudden....saponaceous: something that resembles soap.....so there...

It's the hints you see....you give it away. At least you aren't on a soap box....tu-bthumper: someone who strongly nand rather loudly supports something. Politicians used to use old tin tubs to get the crowds attention.

So let's go over last night's vocabulary words and use them in a sentence.
"The politican utters his diurnal of rhetoric from his saponaceous box, tub-thumping false promises of huge tax breaks for those who are at least primiparas."
