Lex O'Phile says:

"Lexophile" is a word used to describe those that have a love for words, such as: "You can tune a piano, but you can't tuna fish". A competition to see who can come up with the best lexphoillies is held every year. Here are some of the entries.

  • When fish are in schools, they sometimes take debate.
  • A thief who stole a calendar got twelve months.
  • When the smog lifts in Los Angeles U.C.L.A.
  • The batteries were given out free of charge.
  • A dentist and a manicurist married. They fought tooth and nail.
  • A will is a dead giveaway.
  • With her marriage, she got a new name and a dress.
  • A boiled egg is hard to beat.
  • When you've seen one shopping Center you've seen a mall.
  • Police were called to a day care Center where a three-year-old was resisting a rest.
  • Did you hear about the fellow whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now.
  • A bicycle can't stand alone; it is two tired.
  • When a clock is hungry it goes back four seconds.
  • The guy who fell onto an upholstery machine is now fully recovered.
  • He had a photographic memory which was never developed.
  • When she saw her first strands of grey hair she thought she'd dye.
  • Acupuncture is a jab well done. That's the point of it.
  • Those who get too big for their pants will be exposed in the end.

Greetings sweeties:

Our office manager, Ms Lucy Larksong, has resigned. She's left the Gazette to marry a certain very rich personage: Mr Huntly Haverstock III. I never; who knows what anarchy will prevail in the YG offices now? Rumour has it that Theo Fuzzybottom may be up for a promotion, jumping well over more senior colleagues... But do check out his page for the wedding pictures; rather spectacular I must say, even though I wasn't invited.

My close and dear friend, Ferdy, invited me to Steam City's new Botanicus Jardin recently and I was astonished at what Mr Crabtree and Ferdy have accomplished there. It's truly a visually enchanting place. Visit the Garden page for more information.

While you're in Steam City, be sure to visit Kirmden's build and watch the strolling bear. Visit the Build Tips page for further info.

And I'm delighted to inform you that my little pal Randy has successfully completed his first year at college, and he will be an intern at the Yellow Gazette over the summer. How thrilling to have him back.

There are lots of activities in the ActiveWorlds Universe. Here's some we have managed to glean.

  • CY Awards are back.For full details visit the CY Awards website.
  • Every Tuesday: SWCity Interactive
  • Wednesday poetry nights: 10:15pm VRT -- AWReunion
  • Every Friday TGIF party, 10pm VRT. AWReunion
  • Explorers Club. Meet at AWReunion (generally done every couple of weeks.)
  • AW 19th Birthday party, WinterWorld
