User talk:Michael sentient100

Quick tip.

Hi, this is -Slash-. While browsing through the new pages list, I came across your article, Was and now is a contradiction. However, this article seems to be a response to a posting on a talk page, and therefore I marked it for deletion. Please repost it on the right talk page, and to facilitate this process, I'll post your message again for you here.

" In your examples of use of oxymorons you state Samuel Johnson said "He was now sufficiently composed to order a funeral of modest magnificience.." The actual quote was " He is now sufficiently composed to order a funeral of modest magnificience..." I cannot find your quote as it makes no sense viz : was is past and"is" is present and "now" is present and yet you have put present and past in the same sentence. Plese show me the quote in the text you have got. "

Feel free to continue editing Wikipedia. Also, when posting a message on a talk page (not an actual article), please sign your message with four tildes, such as this: ~. This will leave your username for contacting and also leave the date of posting. If you just wish to leave your username, sign with three tildes, such as this:. I wish you a happy time on wikipedia, and am deeply sorry for any offense I might have created. -Slash- 04:14, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
