[size=17]THE ANSWER TO DA FIRXT QUESTION'S 'B' WHY? Okay, in English language and its infinite laws, there's a logic of detecting the right answer swiftly to such optional question. The code/logic is this: SISHACOMAPA. SI= SIZE e.g big, long, tall, shot, fat etc, SHA= SHAPE e.g Rectangular, triangular etc, CO= COLOUR e.g blue etc, MA= MATERIALS e.g lether etc and PA= PARTICIPLES e.g words ending in -en or - ed.

Now, if you analyse it orderly according to the SISHACOMAPA, you'd arrive at be. Now let's go there , SI= LONG. SHA= Nil. CO= BLACK. MATERIAL= Nil. PA= Nil.
With that, you'd detected da answer all ready. The full code of doing this is using DOENH...

[size=19]HAPPY WEEKEND TO ALL IN †ESUS'S NAME...[/size]

Balling with Shakespeare via the two gentlemen of verona!
"O, how this spring of love resemblet
The uncertain glory of an April day;
Which now shows all the beauty of the sun,
And by and by a cloud takes all away."
--Proteus from "The Two Gentlemen of Verona" (I, iii, 84-87)
...and let me or Jodekss continue it by replying Proteus...
"Aye, and the beauteous beauty made of my own belle;
Was what made to go back
Though our connexions are devine
Was chastised mellowly to choose back
What was brought up
Still favours;
According to...
Come back
Come back was all the summary it was then some summer
Psycology told me only true love could make me vex against my lover
Vow not to love her
Again
Curse not to call her
Again
But in the end and yet forgive her
Again.
Proteus, my mate;
Life would have long died and burried without her heart
Love is what keeps this wilderness rolling
Around again and again
I would die for the girl I love
Again
As long as she loves me too
Again...

ALL THE WORLD'S A STAGE- WILLIAMS SHAKESPEARE...


All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At
first, the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms.
Then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel
And shining morning face,
creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress' eyebrow.
Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon's mouth.
And then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lined,
With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slippered pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side;
His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last
scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.

MY PARODY- JODEKSS GLOATKENF...


Is the world really a stage?
Weren't you there when my wife walked me out of my life?
When we were wallowing in gorgeous gold and manifold money; she called it a lasting love
Whenever those words walk out of her mouth, it called from, more love
The man just beside our former behinds is now my wife's man
You see...
When things were sore for that son of a bitch, I came in
I came in incognito and helped him out with a beauteous inn
He thanked me on his treacherous kneels with a goatish grin
I thought I was doing
Good but see him plucking out my heart
And fed my own wife with it
Need I reject regret?
The world is wide
Wild
Bad beyond calling him worst.
Even on serious stages
That Douglas kicked the butts of Mike Tyson
Jubilation heralded and lingered to all the galaxies
Hey! The freak had fallen
Oh! KO guru had fallen
Ah! Dynamite kid had fallen
But they hugely hug each other
Though I saw that with my single ear
That's the spirit but that is just within the rings
We fight, we hate, we kill, we pinch, we...
And none cares in the end
The world is bigger than a stage
And even if she kills my neighbour and come back to my bank
The world is not still a stage
Wherever blood used to run, the place is a big cage.[/b]

[b]Shh...silence must steal every place
It's still the mid of the night no possessed baby must scream
If...
Where did the mother's tits go to the husband would ask,
Infants soporing busy snoring with peas running all o'er their mats
Adult mustn't argue
Would rather keep quiet through out or else...
Back-bitters just have to keep their untouched fellows' life talks
Till it breaks
Even prying parrots with all their talents keep their mouths gagged in dear nests
So if you move, you move stealthily
If you move and step on pieces of peaceful shells of silly snails
You save the screams till it dawns
If you dare scream no neighbour should come out to shout sorries
You woke too early
Couldn't sleep?
Hardly could you switch on your DVD and TV sets to see some zombie season movies
If...
You just have to ameliorate the harms of their volubles
To...let me say, two or three none dares thirty-three or so.

O mid-night!
Come o'er here am talking to you not yew
I asked you to come o'er here
Use your ear
Here
Sit there
Yes that seat there
Listen up dire
Why must you be feared that much tell me ehn...?
What is so so very very special herein your dirty darkness?
Let go me friends, let me ask him
He must be questioned it'd got too much ehn...
Is he the only one?
Why must we all keep quiet when it's mid-night and be free
To shriek like Shrek when it dawns can't hack?
Is it?
I ask, is it?
The night workers, the flutterers; white and worst witches which is
Worth buying some booze to celebrate?
A witch's a witch be it white or wicked but God's good n' great
The thieves with sticks that vomits?
The cultus campaigners carrying pots with cries; propitiating sacrifices?
The ghosts?
The deads that aren't dead?
The skeletons buying shining skirts and big boys boxers?
The spirits released to roam about; against?
The animals walking like man?
The...
Damn it, this respect is too much hence there must be a change
I must be able to scream in the mid-night too
Play outside in the mid-night too
Sleep outside in the mid-night too
See clearly outside in the mid-night too
Trek to anywhere in the mid-night too
Not only when it's naught
Those shall be possible am sure
The day mount Kilimanjaro stands up and shout billions of "bonjour."[/b]
