Ofttimes, one outraged octogenarian orator, only once outdone,

 

obliged over objected opinions, opined over official orders, occurring often,

 

oral outcomes obversely omitted , overcoming obstacles of objections,

 

oriented and orchestrated oblivious of overtures, obliviously obligated by

 

other ominous occasionally ostrich, onerous oglers offset observers ,

 

occupies office in October, often overruling others.

That's a tongue twister for sure Elsie. You sure have a way with words.
Mary McCartt Oct 12, 2007, 1:05pm EDT
Wow, Elsie!
Richard Frisbie Oct 12, 2007, 1:05pm EDT
oddly onerous observation! (loved it anyway!) next - 'P'?

Cute
Elsie Duggan Oct 12, 2007, 1:13pm EDT
Yes Richard, I know the chief is now very young, but had to make the alliteration fit, it is only an exercise, lol.

I just sat here and laughed with this one, Elsie. One giggle after the other. The Queen of the Dandelions reigning over October. You delight us with your words.

Elsie - I love it! I can't resist alliteration, and you have really outdone yourself here. You do so well at arranging words in amusing ways. Keep it up.

Hopefully you will read this aloud several times to make sure you get the rhythm just right for saying this when you give a speech at the Bingo hall tonight.
