heh  Maybe, but only if you make them sound like the timbre of wind chimes 

so does this mean i can now dangle my participles proudly?

i'm all for flexible grammar.   

I have to admit that this book sounds inviting to me personally and it will appear on my list of books to buy at my next visit to Barnes and Nobles or wherever I find it.
I've always disbelieved the complexity the English language creates in keeping proper communications.
heh...I'm thinking already about creating my own words to add to the Spanglish dictionary hehehe

I enjoyed this mucho and look forward to going further with this. Gracias amigo 

it's interesting to see the meanings in different languages.
i certainly feel different on the different days.


i'm reminded me of this rhyme:

Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go,
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child must work for a living,
But the child that's born on the Sabbath day,
Is fair and wise and good and gay.


(i'm a tuesday child, what are you?)

Hm, I like this.

Gracias, amigo

Ever wonder where the names of the week come from? Maybe an inspiration for a short story or poem will come of this...good luck
