Don Mincher was a Twin when I lived out in Minnesota and followed them.

A friend in Phoenix says it can be serious for some, others never even know they have it.

It says she was wearing a drop-waist gown, but in the picture, it hasn't dropped to the waist. I feel cheated.

Oh, and the reason why it's not hard to write a song lyric that scans, even if you don't know what it means, is that you just follow the bouncing ball. You put your stresses -- beats -- where the beats of the song are.

I used to do a scansion exercise with my poetry workshop students to get them used to the concept and make them feel a little more natural about it -- to eavesdrop on other people's conversations and write down everything you hear someone say in iambic pentameter. Always grumbling, always kids coming back and saying they couldn't do it, and always nearly everyone ending up by not being able to turn it off -- they kept hearing iambic pentameter all around them. The problem with this is that it skews your natural social responses. GIRLFRIEND: Last weekend I had sex with your best friend. YOU: What? Wow, that's great! last WEEK / end I / had SEX / with YOUR / best FRIEND! I can use that! GIRLFRIEND: No, listen to me -- I even let him fuck me in the ass. YOU: Even better! I'm gonna get an A!

Can I get a do-over? As far as criteria, I think it's all subjective. I'm not even sure I apply the same criteria to two competitions in a row. It's more like "I know it when I see it." Oh, wait...that's pornography. Oh, wait...there's a difference?

I'm almost ready to disqualify myself. I can't believe I left a line out.
