Do Romance languages include adjective abuse? <g> 

Sounds more like a Teutonic language trait to me -- the way one can
string a bunch of german words into one.

It's hard to tell. Pietro sounds Italian to me, is he? 

Apparently.  I've always assumed that he was and the timing of his replies 
seemed to indicate to me he is in Europe.

I thought bradless was King O' the Hill on the multiple adjective
thing, but here Pietro gives him a run for his money. 

Brad is pretty much the master when it comes to this, but my favourite
for general, overall butchery of the English language is Jerry Howe
(aka The Amazing Puppy Wizard) in rec.pets.dogs.behavior.  Not much
specific adjective abuse, but I can hear my Oxford English Dictionary
yelp in pain when ever I put a Puppy Wizard post on the screen.

I remember this guy! Heis still around, huh? 

Oh yeah, he is around and about the dog froups. ;-)

He and Goof talked all about dog training and the principles of
(Goofenized) behaviorism. That was pretty funny. 

Day-um.  That's one I would have loved to see!  Did he accuse goof of being 
a dog-torturer or some such thing?

R.

No, Hoofy was trying to be scholarly. <g>
