Where did E go?

I'm just crazy about synonyms!

Diving right in - at first this task looks straightforward, but looks can fool you. As soon as you start trying to draft a post an annoying difficulty will turn up. Initially I didn't think I was up to it, but maintaining a stubborn approach works admirably.

It's on the fourth row up

Sad to say you did find it...though you had a good shot at our task.

Initially I didn't think I was up to it, but maintaining a stubborn approach works admirably.

This is first class for an initial try, It is far from child’s play as folk who had a go may avow.
Individuals who did not try this absurd pursuit may think it a cinch, but that is not so.

I own a fab guitar that I must play; no silly word substitutions for this man.

Amazing! What a fun topic! How droll an activity! I could go on for hours looking at all your paragraphs writ without that silly symbol! Ah, living without it is now normal for yours truly. In fact, I don't know what all this fuss is about. Try writing as much as you can starting all words with it! It's hard! This is simply...

Okay, I admit, this is difficult. I thought I would start a post and just go on ad infinitum until it got boring, but it's truly hard! I'll probably call it quits soon. Wait, what's a long word I could add which would aid my post's growth? I saw floccinaucinihilipilification, that was good. What about honorificabilitudinitatibus? I think that's from a famous British bard, in his play As you...lick it? Mic it?....I can't call it to mind...But anyway, this bard actually didn't coin this word. Look it up! It occurs in a work by Dant--- uh, by Signor Alighi---, uh, by that Italian guy who did a Divin-- uh, you know, Inf--, a long po--, uh, with Purgatorio and Paradiso following it...Whoo! That was almost my undoing. Ho passato tanti anni con i libri antichi! Guarda quanto di buono m'hanno fatto!
Sorry, I won't go Italian on you again. I'm hungry. I'm going to lunch. Ta-ta! Torno subito! (Oops.)

This is a jolly first class bash at our task. Good that you bring in a lit. factor adding a touch of distinction to what was frankly turning a jot humdrum. Pity that longing for food should halt your contribution but I trust you had a tasty snack.

Forsooth, I was hungry, nor did I know if that day's work program would allow an opportunity to munch distinct from that instant. Glad to know my ramblings got a look - I was starting to think our participants had no stomach for this fight.

As I go on, I truly think our dictionary, or glossary, call it what you will, could stand to do away with this slouching rot of a dying monogrammaton. Think about it: with all the variant pronunciations, duz Inglish rilly hafta hav fiyv vowls in its alphabat? Wii could just start riplacing thuh charactur liyk this iich tiym wii would normally youz it. Voila! Four vowls with only a fyoo syllabulls hir and thayr throughout thuh languaj which can't bii prodoost without it. Just avoid thowz words!

I know that what I just said is probably against the spirit of this activity, and for that I am profoundly sorry. Just having fun. A good day to you all!

I was thinking that this would not subsist for long, but after that I thought about how many of our group did actually craft amusing idioms to say. Bravo! I must say that I was proud, obliging and a bit arrogant at first to draft up a small communication with a point. But an additional count to quantify my thoughts brings my draft to a conclusion.

Scripting without said symbol is a curious and difficult task. I'm not planning to go that far in it. That book which is not a dictionary, but quite similar, might assist, but so far I am managing without it, and in fact, picking up some .... um ....

[RamseyJ]

oops ... quite

[RamseyJ]

I humbly ask that you drink, such as you would a hoary shot of gin, my apology for using a bad word. It was a most awful goof on my part, which I do not want to action again, in all my actions that follow this instant. As a man said, ramifications justify ways. Or was it, proof is in puddings? I can't think of it just now, but that's alright. I don't think I am communicating logically or grammatically at this point, but at a minimum, I am avoiding that odious icon.

... Think about it: with all the variant pronunciations ...

...

I was just going to say: it all dipänds on how far you want to dipart from thä usual grammair and orthography ... if wi want to get rilly funny it could gät quit far ...

Upon noticing this post I put my brain to work and said, "I will form a grand flow of words" but, sadly, I found that this task is difficult and my mind was soon swimming in frustration as I can not find the words I so much want that do not contain that which you forbid. So on I go,toiling to grow a plant of words that you find worthy. And I will try with all my soul to do what you ask so you may look upon what, hard grown, fruit may spring up.

This is a fun thing to do for a guitarist - all off us is not happy with "you know what". Say no to it, cos it is all over my guitar all day long.
