Why is the progymnasmata thread closed/locked?

[Mama Lynx]

I was going to post a reply, but can't.

[8FillTheHeart]

I would like to understand that as well.

[BarbaraL in OK]

Me too! I was going to offer my favorite progym one-page overview site, and a Web page that has a great list of progym resources. Puzzling. Here are my resources.

Preliminary Exercises (Progymnasmata) from the Univ. of Leeds, UK (http://www.leeds.ac.uk/classics/resources/rhetoric/progymn.htm)

The Progymnasmata - resources for classical writing (http://home.wi.rr.com/penzky/progymnasmata.htm)

I don't know but locking a thread is a very good way to get the last word. It her board. She can have the last word. :-)

[Susan Wise Bauer]

Sorry! Sorry! I didn't mean to close the thread. There was this cool little box that said, "Close thread after your reply," and I thought, "Oh, a shortcut to get back to the main board."

What can I say? These boards are new to me too.

Not trying to get the last word in. Honest.:o

[Karen in CO]

At least now you now how to get the last word when you need it!
:D

Too bad I can't get a "close this topic" button for my kids.

[Mama Lynx]

LOL, Oh, Susan, that's funny.

[Osmosis Mom]

Heheh, I just loved SWB having the vision of her being an UberMind, hehe!!

I am not even cool enough to have time (and energy) to figure out how to make myself an avatar and cool signature.... Oh well..... Dh thinks I am in a pathetic baby-mode anyways and is patiently waiting for me to snap out of it (baby is almost 4 weeks old and I *should* know better!!).

Nadia:p

[Susan Wise Bauer]

I think you're allowed more than four weeks to snap out of baby-mode. My mother always used to say, "It took you nine months to get into that state. It'll take you nine months to get out."

It was good advice.

My mother always used to say, "It took you nine months to get into that state. It'll take you nine months to get out."

I'm going to have to remember this for friends who are pregnant right now.

[Heather]

Oh no! Only 9 months?? SuperBaby is 8.5 months now. I'm in big trouble.

[Susan Wise Bauer]

Then no more sympathy. Nada.
:D
