The poem must be judged in terms of it's timbre, rhyme, alliterative value and most of all its linguistic skill. These four categories judged individually and then added up show a poem's true worth.
1. The main large cap words should have been repeated 3 times.....particular the word the poet secretly despised the most...Michigan...Heheheh...you get a 6 on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the highest.
2. Meanies, greenies, weenies.....bad, chad. Let's just say you did okay.....for this another 6 on the 10 scale. I feel the need for charity to start the new year...
3. This was the worst category...for such a great and talented poster the brevity only added to the true depth of humiliation that must have been underlying such a poor effort....;-).....for this a mediocre 5....did I mention who the Dawgs lost to this year? Heheheh....
4. The one great triumph of the poem was in the category of linguistic skill. You boldly did something that few classic poets would have even considered....you ask what that may be?..... The colors....that's what set Val's heart all aflutter...boldness and correctness of color. For this category...a full 10.
Which brings the poems' total to a 31 out of a possible 40.
And although it might have been low in the all important category of true grovelling....the fact that you actually did it at all....allows me to say...
Well done....2 thumbs up! ....and many thanks for the greenies.

She is a bit nerve wracking to contemplate....not to mention ulcer inducing. If she ever were to win....and I think that's truly a long shot.... could I quit my business and go on welfare?
I know you are too modest to do it yourself, so I will repost it for you at the beginning of every thread.
Have a happy new year.

Quit? Go on? No Prentice. You will be driven out of your business, personally ruined, and put on welfare...

I thought it was Val, being a redhead and all...
If she god forbid ever won .. I predict a civil war to break out
They re-hired the GM and the coach they hired to make us better two years ago when we barely missed the playoffs.
A little nexus search might reveal our great record for the past two years...but hey we'll get a great draft choice.... nuff said.....
