03 Aug 04 - 11:59 AM (#1239498) Subject: BS: Literal challenge. From: Georgiansilver On the "A new for of crop circles" thread. I composed a short piece of literature which is sort of in keeping with the thread and inspired by the picture in the original post. There have been several literal gems on the Cat lately, particularly from Don Firth, which have not gone unnoticed. The challenge is to ...compose a short literal gem on any thread, as you are inspired...without ruining the flow of the thread of course... and to prompt us to view it by identifying it on this thread. Just thought it might be a bit of fun. Mine is not particularly good but yours??? lets see. Best wishes. |

03 Aug 04 - 05:31 PM (#1239752) Subject: RE: BS: Literal challenge. From: Amos GS: First, clear up the meanings of "literate", "literal" and "literary". A literal gem would be -- for example -- a ruby. A more literate challenge would call for a literary gem, although usually this is an expression offered by an admiring audience, not the author. A |

That's our story and we're stickin' to it until the Florida recount has been completed. Right, Al? Al: Right, Bobert. See what I told ya'? Bobert |

03 Aug 04 - 08:24 PM (#1239871) Subject: RE: BS: Literal challenge. From: MMario I think he is talking about creating a short piece of fiction based on whatever topic the thread is currently undergoing - and posting it in the thread to which it is apropos. I think. see the "new type of crop circle" thread for an example. |

Called a "literary gem" by the New York Times reviewer, now with the weight of the saphire, removed from its side, and before it was removed, it was latterly literally, laterally lighter, littoral literary litter. |

04 Aug 04 - 01:35 PM (#1240278) Subject: RE: BS: Literal challenge. From: Jack the Sailor I can see now that MY gem needs a little polishing. The book was just below the high tide mark. Called a "literary gem" by the New York Times reviewer, now with the weight of the saphire, the literal gem, removed from its side, an now that it has been picked up by Trash Control, it is latterly littoral literally, laterally lighter, literary litter. |
