Robyn, FYI, Zemanta works with Blogger quite well. The more I use it the more I like it.

Karen, I appreciate your kind words and encouragement. One of my greatest (and unexpected) pleasures of blogging is having all you wonderful Scots lads and lassies frequent Word Sell. You add a whole new dimension to our conversations on language and writing, including a great deal of humor, insight, and good will. Nice combination!

Hi Brad,
I did see that wee short story in your comments, and laughed fit to burst! I had to guess at the meaning of, oh, eighty percent of it, and my imagination sure made it an interesting story

You’re a master at connections, and every time I pop over here I learn more that just what your words are saying! Keep it up Brad and thank you.

Karen (another one!)

@ Karen,

Glad to hear of your interest in the topic to which I digressed in my comments on this post (homeschooling). I’ll definitely consider your suggestion to write more on this important subject.

Thanks for your feedback!
Jeanne

Jackie, I keep threatening to read Robert Burns, and with this pressure, I may just have to! Glad you liked the story from our mystery writer!

It’s a story about a woman who is having trouble with her husband who likes a drink….beautifully told! I think it would spoil the magic to translate it.

If you really do like this have a look at some Robert Burns poetry. There’s a man who knew how to use the words wonderfully.

Robert, I’ve got a book of cowboy slang … there may be a post coming …

Karen, You know I don’t quite understand the Scots story either, but it’s still beautiful somehow.
