I just posted something, and then looked over it (wrong order) and realized that it should go on this thread.

I would find that slightly, errm, strange if it were on somebody elses post [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] but am not going to edit it because I think it looks....interesting. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Iarwain · 04-08-2003, 07:42 PM

That's a very odd typo, Galadriel! I was staring at it for about a minute, and couldn't tell what was wrong with it at all. The way that extra "h" is placed in the word coherent, very odd. It looks right, almost.

The quote I posted was for 'recieve' which I believe was supposed to have been 'conceived'. I thought it was funny, if no one else did. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I am SO sorry but I couldn't resist! I just immediatly got this image of a spoon in the middle of the desert wearing a turban and sunglasses. I once wrote a story when I was little. It took place in

'A huge dessert!'

Hmm. Several typos here... I wonder if illusenment could be classified as elf magic. If so would it be considered innate or the result of sorcery? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

That's quite a bumbling rampage there, Vanima. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] It seems that the person's fury was so intense that it disabled their ability to type!

Lyra, if you're serious (it's so hard to detect sarcasm in written conversation) I believe it was meant to mean "turn shaft nor blade". Please pardon me for being a blind fool otherwise. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
