Not to mention that I do break mine up into Business Mandate Hacker paragraphs, which is divided into topics without tabs. I even use appropriate spacing.Guess who also took literature, creative writing and business writing in college. That's what several years as an undecided major will do for you! tongueThanks for that warning Cantus....I might not have been so kind and simply have weilded my mighty powers over our poor, unsuspecting friend...that would have been dreadful.Little tip bits all over our lovely home! grinOh, and proper names begin with capital letters please!------------------Pele Higher, higher burning fire...making music like a choir...https://www.pyromorph.com[This message has been edited by Pele (edited 02 November 2001).]

Oh don't be such a spoilsport Cantus. it does make long posts easier to read...And any way, you mayt be right about the punctuation except there is one full stop.But anyway, the post isnt about our Pele, coz our Pele has a CAPITAL P! I'm not sure who this rogue "pele" is, but its a good idea for all of us to make our posts easier to read... grin grin grin grin ------------------Charles (INFERNO)newdolbel@hotmail.comhttps://juggling.co.nz

Oh, now you know I can't resist!!!If written correctly the sentence, as I learned my American grammar, should be...."Please, please, please break up your stories so they are a little easier on the eye, Pele and others."There are proper breaks, a full stop at the end of the complete sentence, proper captialization, as well as correlating syntax instead of having singluar phrasing relating to plural sunjects. grinNow, where is this story? Is it a good piece of fiction? Oh...I like fantasy best!I also know spelling never was my strong point! But since when is paragraph two words? winkLOL..Charles, you commented on the P at the same time I edited it in my post...funny!The one, the only, the real.....------------------Pele Higher, higher burning fire...making music like a choir...https://www.pyromorph.com[This message has been edited by Pele (edited 02 November 2001).]

or perhaps:2 November, 2001Dear Pele and Others, Re: Spelling & Grammar Request - Home of PoiAfter having read many of your posts to the individual forums of the Home of Poi website, it has come to my attention that, whilst your entries are both titillating and informative, paragraphs are not being utilised as they should.I personally find it difficult to absorb information when it has been set out in such a way. No doubt, I have been missing much of the stimulation you provide as a result. I am therefore requesting that you divide your posts into paragraphs so I can take full advantage of the wonderful information you have to offer.In anticipation,tip

I think "Para Graphs" are special graphs that parachute behind emeny lines to confuse the baddy scientists by providing them with erroneous information on their results tables. Thus preventing them in their diabolical plans for world domination. But I may be wrong....------------------C@ntus

hmm I think you are onto something with that line of thinking Cantus.I'm of the opinion that Para Graphs are a covert organisation of highly trained Graphs, who subvert and mislead Graphs all over the world in order to move forward on their own shady agendas...: tongueeers around corner:: there could be some listening to us right now!

Flash was right - ass raping is correct. It just has a different meaning to arse raping (ie raping a donkey!) wink(PS no can make the burn tonight Josh, hopefully next week)[This message has been edited by Bendy (edited 02 November 2001).]

Erm no Bendy. I'm afraid you are incorrect. An Ass is a type of donkey. Closely related to the zebra or horse but having slightly longer ears. Found in parts of Asia and Africa. It's is also an American corruption of the British slang word - Arse. Meaning buttocks.And Flash and I were just chatting about it previous to her post which is why I, jokingly, corrected her.*shakes head*I can't believe that i'm sitting here at 6.45am arguing the semantics of arses and ass'. If my mum was alive she'd be so proud right now.....------------------C@ntus

Do you hear that? *pauses for a moment of silence* ... it is the sound of a crack pipe, on its last bowl....bubble bubble fizz pop...do you know what crack is? I know, I know, I make jokes about crack heads alot, But (personal) experience has taught me...Once a crack head-always a crack head. Disclaimer: Smoking crack may not neccisarily make a person a crack head, and a person may be a crack head even though they have never smoked crack, however, if you say "crack", randomly during a conversationor as a joke, and the person goes "AaaaRRR!!! CRACK!!!" You may have an actual crack head in front of you... Please proccede to the nearest emergency exit, and please, do NOT panic...My grammer might be totaly wrong but, I thought that:Ass Rapping (I think it is also called "beat boxing" in 80's USA inner city slang, where-as Ass Raping (as in Rape, AKA sexual assault) is a form of beastiality performed on innocent relatives of the horse family...Pass the crack pipe please..I think I'll have another hit...

Actually Cantus a donkey is a type of ass (Equus asinus is the species) tongueAss (às): any of several hoofed mammals of the genus Equus, resembling and closely related to the horses which includes the domesticated donkey. The Equus genus contains horses asses and Zebras (no comma for comical purposes!!) Not sure which genus the rest of the horse is categorised under rolleyes - bad joke I know!! grinSorry Cantus smileI don't condone any form of beastiality... but necrophilia means never having to say sorry.[This message has been edited by Bendy (edited 02 November 2001).]

Why on earth is everyone so fixated with crack?Kat. I don't make jokes about crack. It's a touchy subject with me as it recently nearly consumed one of my friends. I don't find all this humour surrounding very funny I'm afraid.NYC makes jokes about it. Fair play to him. If that's what he thinks is funny. But i really don't understand why everyone is suddenly banging on about it.And I certainly dont get why Satanatwo suddenly appeared in the middle of nowhere and started whittering about crack pipes. It wasn't relevent in the slightest.*is supremely baffled*------------------C@ntus

I totally agree with you Cantus, I personally have never had or tryed crack, I am not sure if it exists here, I mean I am sure it does, but in a different form. I find it a little annoying that it is the topic of paying someone out if they say something odd. And I appologise if I offended you. I know drugs can be touchy subject at times. Espeically when they hit close to home.Humble appologies smile------------------ ~*~ Katinca ~*~
