Subject: Comparisons
Written By: MLB on 05/04/04 at 7:55 pm
  I've seen this work before and it is fun if more than
a few people post.
 Anyway, how to play is first reply to the item previously
posted then leave two items of your own.
 And you can give your opinion on the two you post.
 You can discuss almost anything, like opposites, people,
etcetera.
 I will start with two to give ya'll a chance to see what
i mean. Respond to either one, then leave one of your own....
Question 1
 which is your preference?
one rose OR  a boquet of wild flowers?
 __________________________________________-
 Question 2
 Who do you prefer?
John Mayer  OR John Popper
Subject: Re: Comparisons--a poll of opinions
