Ewe know that punning only goats me on! Now bleat it, or wool have to get
shearious with you, Dave!
|
The greatest tragedy in all of this is that I was staring right at a perfect
double pun and totally flubbed it: lamenting should have been
lamb-minting.
Way to miss the easy one, Dave!

Yeah, way to go, Dave! That one was money in the bank. Now, if youd be so
kind as to explain it....

Im not sure what the term should apply to large-ish elements that cant be
broken down into smaller basic bricks, but I dont think juniorization is
quite right.
|
|
|
I see your point, and yet I cant come up with another term for it. I
believe both ideas are encompassed by the term.

Sure, in the absence of another term, Id agree. What we need is someone
smarter than both of us to craft a new designator.

??? Does such a person exist? Has such an intellect ever existed???
<consults Magic 8 Ball> Outlook not so good. Okay, yes, I know that; what
about the other question! Cannot predict now. Well, okay, Ill get back to
you on that, Dave!

Whats Ross doing right
now?
|
Ahhh, good choice. Hes seventeen now, and, of course, being a teenager, knows
everything about everything. </sarcasm> BTW, heads up for those teen-age
years!
|
Id ask Matthew, but hes mostly at Duplo-scale,
|
??? You allow your children to play with LEGO products???
|
and Justins still
figuring out how to grab his toes most effectively.
|
Well, then, hes already more clever than the majority on the DU! >;-D

You are truly a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma, Dave!
|
Oh, Im a rich tapestry, all-rightie!
|
Spin me another yarn, Dave!
|
If thats what you want, then start a new thread.
|
Dont be a spool, Dave! Needleless to say, I was being thimbolic.
