I love your humorous comebacks to those quotes! Some of them don't really make any practical sense. Believing I can do something often doesn't account for the time it would take to accomplish it.
Best wishes in the contest!

Your fun responses in verse to thoughts of great thinkers made me smile. I think my favorite was the first one for Oscar Wilde. I can't think of many things more annoying than being on a spam list of any kind!

Thank you Karenina. This was a fun contest. It's good to see you laughing. I hope it means the foot is healing and you haven't had any further falls. Someone must had turned my name in to spam spreaders too.

My mind is spinning with a thousand quotes...but I don't think I'm at a place to concentrate enough to do anything but cheer from the sidelines this time around!

I'm healing...slowly. That's okay though because I have all this "SPAM" to get through!

I like your reactions to the quotes. Just a thought, the prompt says three lines of your interpretation. I'm not sure whether yours will get past the committee review with only one liners. Good luck in the contest.

You are right. It does say three lines. That makes it harder. It also says poetry and I think your were the only one who has turned yours into a poem. They'll probably disqualify mine but I had fun with it anyway.

Oh, that last sentence made me laugh out loud! I love your interpretations - they probably sum up what the original quotees meant. My favorite quotes - at least the funny ones - come from Mark Twain: "Reader, suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself." That one doesn't even have to be interpreted, lol!

Thanks for the funny read:-)

Thank you Pam. I'm a fan of Mark Twain quotes too. I wouldn't want to mess with his. This might get disqualified because I didn't follow the rules which calls for three line instead of one. That okay. I had fun with it.

One spag. Get rid of the quotation mark on your own interpretation of the first quote. Aside from that, I like this one the best. Numbers two and three are hilarious too. And I get what you're saying about the lack of fear anymore. Good luck in the contest, Beth.

Thank you for great review. There was two of those quote marks that I thought sure of got rid of this morning but I must have forgot to hit save. This was fun to do and it has gotten a better response from reviewer than I expected.
