Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!
Class is now in session. The rules are simple, you get a grade if you use the WFTD in a sentence, haiku, limerick, or quatrain. You get a "+" if you make a link, or make the teacher laugh, or you offer the appropriate bribes. I hold the grade book, and the whip and chair.
I don’t have an example today, so have at it!

Morning Camle.
I want coffee, the fuzzbutt was barking at 3 am and I finally had to close her doggy door to keep her trapped in the house so she wouldn't bark.

Spilled it... all over the hallways floor. At least I mopped it all up though.
