JamesSavik Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 Thank goodness for Editors! They help keep my prose on the strait and narrow, spelling clean and punctuation marked with blue arrows, They don't fix whut ain't really broke, They back me up when I choke. My editor is a mighty fine fellow, His eye is sharp and manner mellow, Mistakes of grammar don't get by, Or sentence fragment left to lie. He is so fast that I can not believe, When my edited manuscript I receive, That he made it though my draft so crude, Without even becoming depressed or rude! Quote Link to comment
Naiilo Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 Is this an original? It made me chuckle a bit the first time reading it. Well, it was either the poem or the fact that it was 3am, not sure which. -Naiilo Quote Link to comment

Have you watched TV lately? They *paid* some smuck to write that slop! I know I could do better with my compter tied behind my back. Quote Link to comment

As for watching TV, I don't usually watch it. Rots the mind with mostly useless drivel (*EDIT*I had misspelled it, but wbms corrected me. Thanks wbms, I end up spelling things phonetically most of the time, so sometimes my spelling gets a bit mixed up.). -Naiilo Quote Link to comment
TalonRider Posted May 28, 2005 Report Share Posted May 28, 2005 James, Thanks for that little poem. It made my day as it was on top of all my email this morning. Nothing like starting the day with a :D and a chuckle. TalonRider Quote Link to comment

I am so happy someone actually realizes that, I won't mention you meant "drivel" and not "dribble" :D -- wbms Quote Link to comment
