That is not the last word. This is the last word.

ErikH - Posted - 09/07/2011:  03:16:13

That was the last word.

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/07/2011:  03:52:57

This is the true and rightful last word.

ErikH - Posted - 09/07/2011:  06:20:37

True and rightful perhaps, but not last.

janolov - Posted - 09/07/2011:  10:42:07

Not true, not rightful, not even last.

roxygrl - Posted - 09/07/2011:  10:44:22

correct, y'all wanna try again?..

janolov - Posted - 09/07/2011:  10:45:22

Here's a new try: Last Word.

roxygrl - Posted - 09/07/2011:  10:48:41

Oh my!..who can beat that!..

janolov - Posted - 09/07/2011:  12:06:52

Nowone, I hope.

roxygrl - Posted - 09/07/2011:  13:48:13

Last Word !

ErikH - Posted - 09/07/2011:  14:39:20

(Last Word!) I think there's an echo in here........

roxygrl - Posted - 09/07/2011:  14:46:25

yeah! that's my echo!

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/07/2011:  14:55:38

The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft the Last Word from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Daffy, have the Last Word.

ErikH - Posted - 09/07/2011:  16:51:44

Strange women lying around in ponds distributing words is no basis for a system of determining the last word.

janolov - Posted - 09/07/2011:  23:09:42

Not a duck in a pond either

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/08/2011:  04:00:57

I can't believe your calling the Lady of the Lake strange......last word.

ErikH - Posted - 09/08/2011:  05:30:02

It is rather strange to lie around in a lake, isn't it?

banjoscotty - Posted - 09/08/2011:  05:38:02

Even if she's the lady of the lake?

ErikH - Posted - 09/08/2011:  11:16:20

Wouldn't things have been simpler if she had handed Arthur the Grail instead of Excalibur?

roxygrl - Posted - 09/08/2011:  13:58:32

..Forget the Grail an' Excalibur...last one to word is a dum a$$ ..... ..an' it ain't gonna be me!...no way!

ErikH - Posted - 09/08/2011:  15:52:03

Whoa!

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/08/2011:  17:33:57

Roxy, I'm speechless.........but, I have the last word cause I'm a fast paddler!

janolov - Posted - 09/08/2011:  23:37:46

I am a fast swimmer so I got it before the duck.

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/09/2011:  02:04:28

This is the game that never ends
Yes, it goes on and on my friend
Some people started playing it not knowing what it was
And they`ll continue playing it forever just because...

This is the game that never ends...

janolov - Posted - 09/09/2011:  03:25:57

I'm afraid you are right. So why do we try to get the last word all the time when we know we can't get it?

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/09/2011:  03:50:33

Cause we're insane in the membrane?

janolov - Posted - 09/09/2011:  04:43:06

You may be right again.

ErikH - Posted - 09/09/2011:  08:24:28

Is this how Sysiphus felt?

janolov - Posted - 09/09/2011:  12:10:31

The difference is that he was a king, and neither of us is it.

roxygrl - Posted - 09/09/2011:  14:15:54

“Sisyphus” from Greek myths? ..Anyone recall who it was from Greek mythology who would win a wager, if he could drink all that was within a golden cup? .. but the cup was connected to the ‘Caspian Sea’ or some sea? And so was unable to finish the drink and loses the wager? ..

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/09/2011:  15:39:39

Sounds like the golden cup was not the last word cup.

roxygrl - Posted - 09/09/2011:  15:50:45

aw..i'd really like to know?..anyone?....

ErikH - Posted - 09/09/2011:  16:22:11

I don't think that was Greek. I'm thinking Norse. Wasn't it Thor who boasted he could drain any drinking horn, and a giant deceived him with a magical horn that contained the sea?

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/10/2011:  03:44:28

I don't think you guys have the last word either.

roxygrl - Posted - 09/10/2011:  06:59:06

Thor!! of course, thank you Erik. I have a link now to the story, seems I was paddling up the wrong Greek!

ErikH - Posted - 09/10/2011:  07:07:18

I'd hate to be up the Greek without a paddle............

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/10/2011:  10:41:23

Sounds painful.

ErikH - Posted - 09/10/2011:  12:20:18

Probably why I never joined a fraternity.............

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/10/2011:  15:26:24

and............................back to Florida.

ErikH - Posted - 09/10/2011:  16:50:18

On the way back to Chicago.

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/11/2011:  07:23:34

made a right turn, then another, and headed south to Florida.

ErikH - Posted - 09/11/2011:  12:17:48

Two more rights will bring it full circle back to Chicago to enjoy the Bears game.

roxygrl - Posted - 09/11/2011:  12:30:31

Yay Big bird!...As yonder crow does  fly straight, then make haste an’ deliver my word directly to Providence!

ErikH - Posted - 09/12/2011:  03:10:50

I think the bird got grounded in Chicago on account of fog.

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/12/2011:  04:01:16

It's the Last Word!!

ErikH - Posted - 09/12/2011:  07:13:23

Ah, would that it was.......

gdtrfb24 - Posted - 09/12/2011:  08:41:02

Yes, it truly is the...last word.

roxygrl - Posted - 09/12/2011:  08:53:57

...But soft, what light with word, through yonder window breaks?

 ‘tis my word! ..Onwards then with haste to Providence.

ErikH - Posted - 09/12/2011:  11:08:20

What is in a word? That which we call Last by any other place would still be a word.
