    It makes me think of David dancing in the streets, though-victorious in battle, having defeated the giant. They sang of how he had slain his tens of thousands. Well, just think of the tens of thousands of words you have conquered! Be encouraged…”for the battle is the Lord’s!”

    Well, gee, now that it’s got a face, it needs a name!

    A name? How about Script-o-man? And he can only be killed by Script-o-nite? Okay, okay, so it’s corny. But, hey, there’s a scary face on a brown box, right? so… it just inspires corny. Alright, I’ll hush now. :)

    The face ought to be Lex Ruthless, soon to be conquered by the valiant and noble Sue-perwoman, faster than a speeding pullet, more poweful than a locomotive, and can leap copyedited manuscripts with a single bound, and write faster than a speeding pullet. Sue-perwoman, yes, a groaner, but that’s what puns are for.
