I do not know why I saved my Sun Spot Project from imminent obliteration (albeit, I know what Herr Guzman was going to do with the unclaimed projects). I suppose my last minute heroics have something to do with the amount of ink and time spent in paint shop during Sun Spot Projects creation. And, after all, it saved me once. So the question ( Read more... )

james, must you conclude practically every entry with a post script?...and heck, sometimes even TWO post scripts? why not somehow incorporate those extraneous thoughts into the body of your entry? i mean, put yourself in their position - i bet they feel really inferior having to be said after all the IMPORTANT stuff.

Hi Heather jashergin May 2 2004, 11:22:46 UTC
You know, I had originally planned an unprecedented third post script in which I was going to explain that the aircraft pictured was more than likely an Albatross or a Spad (something). But it did not make the cut...

Also, I believe in a hierarchy of words... Thus, by implication, my post scripts are more than likely inferior. Perhaps you should come up with a "post script equal rights front" of sorts? (B.S.)

Also again, I like the presence of a post script for formatting purposes. Just looks nice. (This one is not B.S.)

Here Heather... I'll write you a haiku...

Heather wrote to me...
About my post script entries...
Extraneous, huh?

Have a nice day. :)

P.S. I was going to have an "Also for a third time," but I felt that would have been far too much.

Hi, James.

I actually rather like the post script tradition. It's the haikus I'm not terribly attached to...though on second thought, they do have their own charm and are unprecedented in my lj explorations. So, kudos for originality!

Post Script Thanks to Gandalf jashergin July 11 2004, 14:50:26 UTC
Erin,

You know where I thought of the post script ideas? And I am not so sure why this came to mind at the time to get me to write them, but Gandalf wrote the Hobbits a letter that they found on Weathertop (in the first book). In the letter Gandalf had several post scripts... If Gandalf was fond of the post scripts I thought, "What the hell... I'd like to be cool like Gandalf as well."

-James

P.S. I like writing haikus because they are silly. Also, I initially wrote them because Ginny was doing the journal with me and we would often write these silly haikus on AIM while conversing, thus it carried over to the lj and it stuck... Quite the haiku institution now.

My favorite part? How you don't necessairily agree with your point, you just adored the sentence...definetly hit close to home
It's tough to comment when you are a live-journal virgin...so I'll leave it at that for now...
