HA! I am not the only one who compulsively starts posts with 'so'!

I wonder which of us started it? We probably infected each other.

No idea, but we did probably infect each other.

So, I was thinking about this opening "so" phenomenon, and I decided that "so" would be a good word for translating the Anglo Saxon "Hwat".
Which means Beowulf would start something like this:

"So, we've heard of how great the Spear-Danes were in days long past..."

Now I'm thinking about Beowulf being written on Lj...

Also, Charis pointed this out when she discovered her own penchant for starting posts with "so" and has begun using "hwat" on occasion just to shake things up.
