You canNOT go wrong with Ninjas. They’re like nature’s humor candy.

Thanks!

No, I hadn't seen "Twelve Ways to Say I'm Sorry", but I remember hearing about it on Epstein's blog. Ooh, it's on hulu? I'll watch it this weekend.

Another example: "12 Ways to Quit Smoking". Come to think of it, *I've* used this format before. I knew going in that I wasn't using the most original structure (and there's something unmanly about writing more of a top-ten list than a scene), but I got lured in by how over-the-top ridiculous I could go with the idea. Once I had ninjas, there was no going back.

(I haven't gotten emails so far, but I just changed a setting on blogger so that I should now.)

I’m going to assume you *did* get an email because I did not.

Beautiful! If you want 'em, I can give you deeper thoughts than a single adjective later. I really like how you buried #6, too.

Did you ever see Twelve Ways to Say I'm Sorry? Reminded me of that a little, structure-wise.

And...uh, did you receive this comment as an email? I haven't worked with a Blogger group blog before and don't know how or to whom it emails comments on posts.
