Poor Paul is presently plunged in piles of perturbing preoccupations,
forthwith fiendishly finagling his fiancee into fending the fort for his fans. He
blames his busy-ness on books and bequeaths the blogging to bystanders:
meaning myself. He maintains that he may
materialize when his mobs of mental marauders have
abated their attack. After that awaited anticipation, he'll arrive anew and
script something significantly superior to this silly, sorry,
pretty pathetic post. -Petra

Ah alliteration always asthetically an aspiring aspect!

Barry... you stole my comment... sort of. I was actually thinking as I read this that the Howe family has an affinity for alliterations. Then I realized that Petra wrote this blog. Maybe she's just preparing to join the Howe family and this was an attempt at acquiring an affinity for alliterations as well. :)

Well, the Howe family may appreciate alliteration - but they aren't the only ones!
poignantly penned Petra, I appreciate profound pearls of ponderings pertaining precisely to Paul....

hehe, I wasn't sure what I was pertaining to there for a minute, but then I realized that Paul starts with a "P" and I was saved!

What a pear, I mean pair ;)
Paul n Petra

hehe... and then there are polka-prancing penguins parading purple polywogs who persistently prattle ponderous ....

and this is just on one letter of the alphabet!

I think that I shall cease to persist

Wow, it does seem that the Howe family (including Petra) aren't the only ones who enjoy the art of alliterations. Apparently Caitlin has talent in the area as well. What a silly bunch you all are :) But then, I'm one to talk. Lol,
Thank you Petra (and Paul) for making me smile on this fabulously fine Friday :)

Dear me! I'm a little embarrased by all this silliness. Especially since my comment tops the lot!

Howes enjoy words. Hopefully, our love of words doesn't overpower our commitment to a meaning behind them.

Paul said...

we shouldn't take life too seriously. a bit of silliness makes things grand.
Law school life is often rather grim. thanks for lightening me up.

In fact, it is possible to be eloquently silly, as long as we avoid silly eloquence. Whether one is better than the other is a matter of personal preference. Luckily for me, I rather enjoy both on occasion!

Caitlin said...

Dear me! what a dreadful state I must have been in to write such nonsense! ;)
... would that be silly eloquence, or eloquent silliness? take it as you wish :) yes words are fascinating, and fantastically fun (see I can't quit)
