Hey Bec, glad to see you jumped in the game. Great sentence; hope you contribute some more. =p
Patriarch, do you like cream and sugar in your coffee? (Wow, great sentences!)
J-----a: Can "zealfully" be found in Merriam Webster? Dictionary.com says 'no such word.' If Merriam Webster concurs, note that "zealously" would work.
In any case, great sentence!!!
PD: I drink my leaded, hi-test coffee straight. Show me a sailor/Navy vet that drinks cream & sugar in his coffee or, worse yet, decaffeinated coffee, and I'll show you a guy that should be a flyboy/USAF vet!
LOL, Patriarch.
Someone I know very well, when asked at Starbucks if he'd like "room for cream", answers, "Naw...I got weaned at 10!"
There's some stiff competition here! Wow, Elizabeth... a poet in the making.
Has anyone else noticed the proliferation of x's, q's and z's? Sheesh...
good chocolate one! helps to not have any of those x, q and z's you are talking about!
Hey J---
You did say sentence (singular) in your original proposal. Can you go back and replace that "." with a ";" or are we allowed to use multiple sentences?

Dear Picky,
Rather than change my sentences, I've changed the rules. (Ha! The one who makes the rules can change the rules!!)

Hi Reb----
You commented: "(ps--Have you noticed that some WV are long and others are short? Wouldn't you think they'd all be the same number of letters?)"
I am not surprised at all. Not only the randomness of the letters, but the random length of the WV make it difficult for automated PIN busters.
I still question the need for and the effectiveness of using this scheme for this application. But it has led to a fun game!
Love to all
Dear Patriarch,
Thanks for the explanation. I've always wondered why in the world the length varies. But, that leads me to another question. . . why does my bank (a bank here in Si-----re require six and ONLY SIX numbers for my pin. Wouldn't you think they would apply that same anti-pin-busting technique?
(Hi Cesalie! Yes, I'm trusting you will be here soon!)
Lori, after Barbara's entry, your return sentence about the Matriarch being doomed was amazingly fast!
I could almost hear you cackling across all the miles! ;-)
This is going to be a close call!
