Thought About It Too Much Maru


Then perhaps you really should not think too much about the fact that at least one other list member "got it" without any explanation . . . or that another list member came up with it immediately upon reading that line in Alex's message . . .

Oops, sorry: I meant your response to Alex. As you might have surmised, I didn't go back and look up the original messages, but just looked at the quoted parts above and misread who wrote what. Well, anyone whose thinking is warped enough to come up with such a response to a rather straightforward reference to Irish mythology -- which is what I meant by the above comment: that you might not want to think too much about how warped the thinking processes of some of the people you associate with here must be -- can hardly be expected to be able to follow the indentation straight down the page . . .


Really Warped Would Be Forwarding The Above Word Play To Laurell K. Hamilton In Case She Could Find A Way To Work It Into Her "Princess Meredith" Series Maru
