Take two 'major' words (i.e. nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs) from the previous poster's sentence and use them again in a single sentence of 8 or more words of your own.
Try to follow on from what has been said before although topic drift is welcome.
Extra kudos for not repeating 'major' words that have already been used on that thread page (aside from The Two you are using, of course).

Originally posted by Great Big SteesPeople ask, will there one day be an ending to foolishness - in the sense of there being a rising tide of smarts that raises all boats or a certain book that everyone will read and it'll change them - but sadly the answer is no.

[b]Confessions by Pablo Neruda is an extremely beautiful memoir.
I highly recommend it![/b]
