I have also been worried about prompts after posting. I believe I will continue to read your postings and I believe anyone who makes me spit while I'm trying to read something has a wonderful way with words. Enjoy your writings tremendously.

    Thank you, hchriste, for your photo. And I'm delighted that you found my piece funny. I'm never serious unless I'm in front of a judge. I hope you enjoyed. Peace, Lee

I believe you should post an "I Believe" list at least once a month to keep our heads from exploding with the reality and negativity of life. These are wonderful...especially the Washington WTF statement!(still makes me laugh, and let me know about that penis/USB thing! (you might be onto something here),God Bless, America Kleenex is brilliant (send them the suggestion!), and of course I would be singing the Hallelujah Chorus if men wore skirts (gotta love those Celtic kilts)

These are always so much fun, hw.

    Thanks, Indy. I love writing these. You picked out a couple of my favorites, but the brownie/nuts duo still cracks me up. I'm glad you enjoyed. Peace, Lee

    I like the brownies/Scouts too...but it made my mind have some wild and crazy thoughts :>)

This work has reached the exceptional level

This was a very entertaining write! I truly enjoyed each new sentence, knowing that it was going to top the one before it. Very cleverly done, and enjoyable. (Congratulations of winning the 'I Remember' contest!) Well done.

I thought this was great, Lee. My faves:
"I believe poets are o'erly fond of contractions." HaHa
I think I'd go with "ov'rly myself! All four of the American ones starting with our national anthem (I couldn't agree with you more!) The two on brownies and Brownies are my favorites of all. So funny!
"I believe writing just for rankings is petty impersonation.

I believe reviewing based purely on payout is petty prostitution." SAY it again, Sam!! Oh, you know I could quote the entire thing and your final one, as my middle finger was busy NOT giving anyone the finger at the time, was a hilarious conclusion for this list. I loved it all.

    Hey, Jude. Thank you. I went with o'er because of my reference to the The Star Spangled Banner. The 'brownies' were my inspiration---I had to make up all the other stuff---although George's reaction to his monument still cracks me up. I hoped you'd appreciate my observations about writing and reviewing on FS. And, no, those have no bearing on my middle finger suggestion. We won't go there. Thanks, Jude. I'm glad you enjoyed. Peace, Lee

    I was bein' silly with the "ov'rly" 'cause it's impossible to say! Good Morning!

    Morning, Jude. What's David Gregory yammering about today?
    Hey, ovary isn't even a contraction! Lee

I enjoyed reading your 'I believe' and many of your believes, I am right there with you and that scares me a little. Good job.

You may be screwed, but you blessed this reviewer with a LOL good time! Girl, you sure pulled some chains with your 'I Believe List'. Such as your hint of changing the American anthem, your taunt at computer match making and most of all your snide remark about the Holy Grail,FanStory. Keep'em coming.

Most of the lines bought at least a bemused smile if not a good laugh, but none quite so much as line:

I believe George Washington would take one look at his monument and say, "WTF?"

It was funny as hell. And with most humor that works it goes beyond just the line. For me it's how our founding fathers might think about our country as a whole these days. I do wonder if "WTF?" might be a consistent expression from them.

Thanks, a lot, for the wonderful and entertaining read.
