Writing advice

Words and sentences are like strings. You can either stretch them tight, taut. Like guitar strings. So you, the writer, can pick them and make music. Then again, sentences can be nice and long and untied, so you can wrap them around things – say, a top – and make them do things to others. How you treat your string is up to you. Play the guitar, spin the top, have fun.

    Or have the string declared as a value to a variable and call it from the inherited class so that any dynamic method can see the interface :P

    Thanks for correction (nit-picking) Navneeth. :)

    It could be a joke even without the The. :P Actually, even the phrase The String Theory is a joke.
