It's one of the aspects of Wordie I love best. :-) And c_b, it didn't even occur to me to read it in cloud form, probably because you suggested the list version. Now I'm off to contemplate the cloud of Journey of a 300-Year-Old House.

Playing with this sort of thing (Wordie) allows the ordinary to interconnect. You can make transcendent weavings with plain old yarns.

Thanks, all. Glad you like it!<br /><br />I love the "clump of words" characteristic of lists, that these Wordie lists work in a linear sense as well as a cloud sense, that you can read a "story" by reading a list, even if it's missing huge chunks of grammatically necessary stuff.<br /><br />That's why all my Tunies highlight fairly pedestrian words. I like the juxtaposition of them on a list so much, I don't mind having "ordinary" words listed. I figured that was just me and other people would find it dull, though.<br /><br />Rocks, don't worry, you're among friends. :) I feel the same way about history. Trust me, I do.

Granted, I probably have a larger soft spot than the average American for the restoration of old homes and buildings.<br /><br />A well crafted list, to be sure.
