Old Mar 8th, 2006, 09:39 AM        Gorey signatures
for those of you who do not have signatures, or are interested in changing their current, I shall be posting a number of Edward Gorey short story texts, which you may quote for signatures, or do with as you will.



For starters: "The Sopping Thursday" (by Edward Gorey)

Since early morning it has been raining

Where is my umbrella?

I have mislaid my umbrella

I do not find my umbrella

I have lost my umbrella

Where is Bruno?

I think it will presently stop raining

Someone stole Mrs Gumbash's umbrella

I wish to purchase an umbrella

Last night it did not seem as if today it would be raining

I am unable to undo the cover of my umbrella
I know I am going to succeed

I have come to borrow an umbrella

I do not like carrying an umbrella

The cats are nervous when it is raining

The child has somehow got shut inside its umbrella

Nor do I really care for this umbrella

Last week in your umbrella stand I left my umbrella

The wind has blown inside out my umbrella
I will not give up until I do

I never mind it raining

I have been poked in the eye with an umbrella

Have you no other umbrella?

Last year on this date it was raining

There has been a snatching of an umbrella

None of these umbrellas will do

I cannot see where I am going with my umbrella
I feel I shall very soon succeed

I expect tomorrow it will still be raining

The infant is saved frombeing swept down an open sewer
because the dog has recognized its master's umbrella

Bruno has returned
I knew I should succeed

What a noble beast!

That was very naughty of you
THE END
