I have been accused in the past (with much unfairness and all that) of being incapable of writing a complete sentence......*ahem ahem*........ so it was with much trepidation that I actually turned to fufil my duty on being tagged by illusionary.......the 5th sentence of the 23rd post......me thought it was very likely to be some fragment of babelian wisdom and fishy incoherence…..but surprise, surprise, the nearest approximation to the 5th sentence was a grammatically correct sentence containing the wisdom of ages…….and I quote........
"Alas, alas, that ever love was sin!"
Not original, unfortunately (you can’t have everything altogether, be reasonable!!) All credit for this gem of a statement goes to a gentleman who died around the beignning of the 15th century and went by the name of Geoffery Chaucer. But well, 5th sentence has been quoted and all but I simply cannot be bebothered to tag anyone. So all those who feel it is imperative to their existence that they identify the 5th sentence of their 23 rd post or all bloggers who have nothing better to do on days (or nights) when the rain shows no signs of giving up and going south, please consider yourself tagged by the psychic manifestation of my blogging self.
I have spoken.
And if the gentleman who once commented he would pass out the day I managed to write a complete sentence happens to be reading this, pray good sir, I have the smelling salts right here, but tell me was it surprise or sheer pleasure?

I've been tagged for this several times now, and I still haven't done it - the 5th sentence for my 23rd post is SO boring.
And now that I see yours is a line from Chaucer, I'm even less inclined to post mine!
You... do... write... with... a... lot... of... pauses. :-p
hmmmmmmmmmm !
oooooooh, the gentleman has been soundly snubbed!!!good going girl;-)
jay : hehehe! No, no you must complete tag, I refuse to believe you ever managed to write anythng that qualifies as boring. Thanks for dropping by :)
euphoric dreams : mhmm :)
jded : oy girl, don't get me wrong. My intentions were not remotely to snub anyone.
its fun to see all the stuff tha comes out of yr archives...
maybe ill have those someday ;) and then i can come up with a sentence worthy of sharing
and who was saying things like being lyaad khawa??....ahem ahem!
Gentleman will pass out just by the attention. (Or at least that will be his version!) *cackle*

hmm... for the first time i have chanced upon someone who actually had sth profound in the 5th sentence of the 23rd post :D... usually its like "and we had tea..." or "i looked out of the window"; on those lines neway....
mandy : naheeeeee!! Yours was most charmingly written but I just can not think of a hundred things to say about myself :D still if I'm bored enough in Hyderabad, maybe I'll do this as well :S

i think i have been tagged by this same insane thing: 5th line of 23rd post! (whoever came up with such a thing!! ) its simply nuts. methinks i'll start my own bloody tag and add my name to it. sure shot popularity!
last paragraph appreciated very much! :D...
Ah, Chaucer. Most insightful chap.
euphoric dreams : have checked new post but you must explicate on these hmmms!!
acroyali : you must start your own tag, make it short and sweet and inane and it will either make you immensely popular, or much disliked :D
doel : thank you thank you thank you!!! Firstly for the compliment and secondly for the visit...do keep coming :)
the one : most my dear...I shall tag you once you hit a 23rd post :D
