Whoops! Carol, you didn't offend me in any way. I was simply responding to Arawn that I didn't always choose the "most memorable" or "my favorite" passage to quote, so perhaps I had already been bending the rules of this particular set-up. I think "opening lines" is a great idea, no matter what thread it's located in. And as you saw, I snuck in there just ahead of you.
So please, no worries on my account. And I'm sorry that what I posted made you think otherwise.
Kathy
