Sentence: Billy knocked on the door, and when Jennifer opened it, she looked right at him and said, "I suppose you think this fixes everything!", then ran off and locked herself into the bathroom for an hour.

Before he caught himself, Billy glanced at Mr. Tidwell and karmadiated involuntarily, "I suppose you think this fixes everything".

Hey Kyoti - keep going with your story - it's good but you still haven't used your word in a sentence - Jabberwocky, 2007-07-20: 11:09:00

much better - funny story - maybe you should have named the dog Monica - Jabberwocky, 2007-07-20: 11:20:00

Well, see... Tidwell is a verbotomy too. Sobbbbb.... - Kyoti, 2007-07-20: 14:56:00

Or was that an anagram? Hmmm.... - Kyoti, 2007-07-20: 14:57:00

A subliminal mnemonic device? I dunno. - Kyoti, 2007-07-20: 14:58:00
