Remembering the Poet of Steel

So, I noticed I wasn't getting any more post notifications from the Poet of Steel's blog, and I checked; the blog has been deleted. Furthermore, I checked his profile. It was also gone.

I'm uncertain what happened, but whatever the case, he will be missed.

Sidenote: A post was submitted to be posted today, but I wasn't sure it fit in with the rules of the blog. Then I looked for the rules to verify, and found they were hard to find, so I copied them to the "Read Here First" section. I hold no fault against the author of the submitted piece, especially since it likely is family friendly among many circles, but my family is pretty solidly Christian, as is another family I know reads this blog, and according to our particular beliefs, it isn't family friendly, so I have elected not to post it so no controversies will be sprung up. Sorry for the inconvience, but on the flip side, thanks for posting it, because I probably wouldn't have thought of moving the rules to another location, otherwise; now new readers will find it more accessible.

  3. It sucks that his blog closed down. I loved how optimistic its was. :(

    P.S.

    Are you referring to my poem revolving around the fire at Notre Dame Cathedral I understand. There was one word I meant to change to goat at the end to add another reference the verse in Isiah about satyrs dancing on the ruins of Babylon. But, I forgot to change it. I'm sorry. :(

Would You Rather...? (#1)

These "Would You Rathers" are small, but they're meant to start debates. Debates, not arguments! Anyways, here's the first one: "In a mystery novel, would you rather have a friend by your side helping you while risking his/her own life... ...or would you rather have your friend safe at home counting on you to solve the mystery and come out safely?"

Nexus Mad Libs

I assume most of you are familiar with what Mad Libs are. Basically, you're given a bunch of blanks to fill in, and you do so without knowing what the story is. Each blank has a part of speech labeling it, and that blank needs something that fits the part of speech. For example: Adjective: ________ --> Adjective: Explosive In the end, we usually have a hilarious end result that makes no sense whatsoever. One example is this (which is a real result I got once with my siblings): "Another way to help you fall asleep faster is drinking a nuclear glass of warm vinegar ." First, let's go over some rules. Obviously, keep it family friendly. This still goes for all blog content. Do not submit two words in a row. Submit one, and when someone else does one, you may do another. Submit through comments. That'll make it easier for me to assemble the final result. The category is Medieval Heroes . Here are the blanks: Adjective: Constipated (Kyra) Per

Q/A With Shaly

This was bound to happen, like so much that the one that is probably next is I don't know... The Poet of Steel or Spitfire or Lady Knight, or just some other crazy. Plus, you guys know the drill. Mark's Addition : So...well...yeah, if anyone else wants to do one, let me know. Apparently, this is the thing to do on my blog right now, though I admit, I have no clue why.
