Among all the chunks of meaty stuff on the noticeboard, I thought I'd put this little one up... Today a line caught my eye. I noticed that the home page of the Writers' forum opens with the words 'A picture's worth a thousand words' and then goes on to say how much worth a word is. Should it be 'A picture's worth a thousand words.' or 'A word's worth a thousand pictures.'to fit the context of the Home page message? :) This is just a trite aside to relieve probably my own tedium; no offence meant to anyone esp the Home page designers. :) Also I hope someone will get caught up in the grammar snarl of the line and lose lots of sleep, and I will then dance with glee over a prank well played... Ha! Actually I don't and I won't. :)
