griphook Mar 07, 2003	Cool. There is a typo in the last part of the answer. Should have been IS THAT IT? and not IS THAT IS? Thanks for a good one.

norcekri Jul 11, 2005	[quote]Anyone here ever seen the movie or read the book "Flowers for Algernon?"[/quote] Very much. Thanks for beating me to it. Although the quote is not in the original story, it appears in both the book and the movie. Plagiarizing is not the way to get high marks, at least not from me.
froggygg Jul 12, 2005	norcekri - is there any teaser on site that gets a vote from you? You seem to find something dramatically wrong with each and every teaser you leave a comment in. These teasers are meant for fun - please try to enjoy them as everyone else does. Good teaser and I also enjoyed it as most everyone else did. Good job.
Babe Jun 19, 2012	Froggygg...As everyone else does? Speak for yourself! I did not enjoy it for two reasons. It is as old as the hills and it was too easy. It says make a comment and that is what she did. She is entitled to her opinion.
