Shakespeare Magnetic Poetry
Wed Feb 27 2002

I'm a tad disappointed in the Shakespeare magnetic poetry words. No "whilst"? No "thou" or "thee"? How the heck am I ever going to work "vouchsafe" into a poem without cracking myself up?

Magnetic Poetry Creation of the Day

I envy winter
for it doth not die
but grows to young spring
whilst I shall ne'er
free myself from
this too mortal season
╒╕╘╛╒╕╘╛╒╕╘╛╒╕

I was so convinced that there had to be a "whilst" in there that I wrote the poem out in my head and just searched for the words to fill in the blank. I refuse to rewrite it just because Magnetic Shakespeare didn't live up to my expecations.

    Thanks for sharing all the ip information.

    The kitty guarding the front door is a hoot. I also got a kick out of the cats sharing the sunbeam. Those are some big cats.
    Keep shooing that dark cloud away =)

    Hey Salamander,
    Not sure if you caught my response yesterday . I took the entry down so if you didnt let me know and Ill post it to you here. :) Also on the Gumby thing, Ive not dealt with Gumby toys, but best bet is just do a Gumby Collectors search on Yahoo or message board, or search Ebay Completed Auctions and compare him with what you see for a value or info.

    :) I deal mainly with 80s toy. Glad you are feeling better!

    hehe a little freaky about the missin word there :P I love the way the old english sounds. Was a good addition to your magnetic vocabulary.

    And I'm disappointed that neither my home or work addy is in the list. I feel so left out!

    I've printed out this entry and will review it. I do have several emails from HIM... please tell me how to find the IP with the email. Doesn't show anything when I open up emails. Your help is greatly appreciated.
