Here are two sections from me:

Is "youthify" really a word. :roll:

But, this brings to mind my first ever online stage role in, The Merchant of Venice, when Jessica, Shylock's purloined daughter, confesses to her handsome young lover, Lorenzo, (me) "I am never merry when I hear sweet music." To which Lorenzo replies with a soliloquy that begins, "The reason is, your spirits are attentive."

"And, my favorite line,
Nought is so stockish, hard and full of rage,
But music for the time doth change his nature."

Act V, Scene I
On the road again, so delays are possible

Of course. Beautify, identify, nullify, gratify. Youthify - - to make seem younger!!!!! You can apply 'ify' to many words to make them into verbs. Let's see, what might we Larrify? :wink:

Thank you! I should begin PLing on this weekend :thumbs:
I don't actually know if there is an expectation readers should have on this, but I don't recall ever waiting a whole week to be PL'd. So thanks for letting us know; it's good to know what to expect.
