John, point taken!

I should have just said "over"--shame on me
for extra, needless, spare redundancy.

Hi Melissa,

I've been told before that I am a bit persnickety, punctilious, pedantic, and nice. Sorry about that! :-)

Cheers,
John

I've also been told never to give anyone another Latin lesson ...

At least you don't get pernickety about the American "s" in persnickety, John.

Congrats to all who made it into the issue. I haven't had time to enjoy it yet, because I've been so busy making important comments like this one. Perhaps I'll get to it this weekend.

Thanks Erik, John, and Vera, as well as Melissa for her contribution Best In Show giving us a glimpse into the mind of a poetry contest judge.

A heads-up to all: Just learned that Jerome has included clever and/or informative "hover captions" with the LUPO illustrations. Be sure to check out the one on Max Guttman's poem about Geo. Washington, among others.
