David has already encouraged you to forget this: Am I missing something in the line: Sweet vale of Avoca! how calm could I rest Does this have only 11 syllables, where all other lines have 12? Being something of a syllable-counter myself, I submit that *you're* not missing a thing. Just pretend ther...

Woo-hoo!

Thank you, fiddlesticks!

{guessing you got your iThingie to play along with you at last }

And thank you, Anne, for showing me the words to fit the description

Thank you, Carolin. I can imagine adding "actual content" references between sentences 1 & 2, but I'm not bursting forth with creative spoiler-free filler, at this point. There's also an almost vicious complexity [imo] about Walpole, especially in this little book, but he can only hide...

There are dogs, and there are dog-myths:

Glad to imagine {thanks, David; thanks, Len} there's probably more truth in some than I can hope to know.

I can do some PLing for this book if you like I'd appreciate that, thanks. I worry about my tendency to get loud, but other PL-ers haven't been reporting blown eardrums. Technically, from the PL side of the process, I'm not experienced, but Anne knows when to issue MW access & such stuff. Happy...

Thank you, Carolin! I've edited-in my first draft of the summary; if someone thinks it can be improved upon (does the bit about the tenth character occupying both the Prologue & Epilogue constitute a "spoiler"? I'm ruminating on it), I'm happy to debate the alternatives. In his way, in...

First off, I finally noticed I forgot to post Matilda Betham's "dates of" [(1776-1852)] to the thread, though I did enter them in the tags; sorry for any inconvenience that I may have caused you, there. And this link links straight to The Poem, just in case: http://archive.org/stream/shake...

Could you perhaps make your own ringtone? I've been tinkering around with that, yes, in fact. And it's also possible to buy ringtones featuring "celebrity" voices, but I'm not that desperate &/or interested, at this stage of investigation. "The phone is ringing" would do nic...

All audio files can be found on the catalog page for this project: http://librivox.org/the-golden-scarecrow-by-hugh-walpole/ Toying with the distinctions between reader and narrator, author and character, imagination...

Before I can initiate any [controlled?] "practical experiment", I need to formulate a plan-of-action; that stage of planning is very much like a [controlled?] "thought experiment". This, in theory, differs materially from launching into an activity & trying to figure out what...

Oh, golly, what have I done: So - this climate change stuff is all a Spanish conspiracy to be able to invade England - now I know. And they were so good at it, even the Martian polar caps have been dwindling. Whatever else you may think about "gas emissions", don't think about livestock fl...
