rose,

Thank you! I could have sworn I looked up bouquet, and I thought I caught the rest, ah well, I am taking more time with the next assignment...I wanted to ask if there is a standard way to write out song lyrics in this context? I imagine is it necessary to get permission from the band (I know one of the guys from happy talk, so I could get permission to use the words in this case) Also I was trying to write the words to sound like the song, you could hear it on myspace, happytalkband has it on their page, if you are inclined and have the time.

This device might only work with popular well known songs (I seem to remember Stephen king uses pop music quotes now and then) where the melody just pops into one's head.

The next piece is in the works, I am taking your red marks seriously and I am detemined to catch my errors and do a couple of rewrites before posting.

That you are proud of me feels really nice. Thank you for all of your help.
