Give me an Uber-point, for I have read thy blog.

I did love your old quote though. Nominated it for Best Sig myself!

The Eye Aaahhhhhhhh!

Cheater! Tricksy! False!



I should have added a proviso, Thou shalt keep thy mouth shut if thou readest mine blog.

I noticed that, I did. Thank you kindly, dear. Points on both counts! (Nothing stingy about me, no sir!)

P.S. It still wouldn't have happen without the blog!

I am laying this quote to rest-
Quote:
Originality is the fine art of remembering what you hear but forgetting where you heard it.
I like that quote. Can't remember where I heard it, though.

While floating around the Downs lately I've noticed several members ushering in the Valentine's Day season with romantic/flowery love-related sigs, and I decided that I, too, would honor the day with my signature.

So, during the next few days, my signature will display some of my favorite quotes about love.

Yes, love is imagination isn't it.

I'm putting to rest my latest:
"You have the right to think whatever you want and I have the right to kill you for it."

It was shocking for the length of time I needed it to be. Plus it was a great tribute to my History Teacher. Thanks Mr. Rajotte, now I can answer more Jeopardy questions!

Firefoot has been trapped in the Barrow!
My newest old and buried sig:
Quote:
"Out of doubt, out of dark to the day's rising/ I came singing in the sun, sword unsheathing.
To hope's end I rode and to heart's breaking:/ Now for wrath, now for ruin and a red nightfall!"
