Yeah, I know. But I think "ate" gives better rhythm. And I don't believe such a word as "flatulation" exists. But "flatulence" doesn't rhyme with "conflagration", so we'll file it all under "artistic freedom".

Okay, I've figured it out.

I should have taken Gas-X
I should have taken Beano
Before taking in the buffet
At the Darkside Casino

Much better!

I'd like to go to the NEW Bradbury board but it seems that the NEW Bradbury board isn't working, California time 11:12PM, Friday, Sept. 29th. So this OLD Bradbury board seems to be working. Now why is that?

My comment was to be an additional comment on the nonsense that developed on word play, when it all started with someone posting a goofy article from 'PASTE Magazine'. Well, aside from that, here is my contribution to the nonsense. This word:
gobbledygook.

In the meantime, I do hope whatever is ailing the NEW Bradbury board....gets fixed fast!

Thank You!
