It's not required and only for extra credit, but maybe I will take you up on it. Thanks for the offer.

Add "Helpful" to the list.

Fabulicious. (One of our mentors, Rick Suarez, liked my murderation of the English language. I never said that word, but I wound up getting the nickname.)

Re: I need your words..... For a English literature college class extra credit project.
Hehe, ... here's a haiku I actually turned in for a somewhat major english grade (there were others there too, though, ... so don't worry about my grade).

Sundry Verses II

A light breeze reflects
its metallic strength,

Aluminum beauty
of welded delight.

Speed controllers
And electric motors
Powerful microcontroller.

Controlled by my hand
The monster rampages.
Lines of C syntax compute.

Edit: in consideration for your plea for words and not whole (confusing) phrases, I've bolded the words in the poem that might be appropriate. As a programmer, it is concentrated a bit toward the technical/electronic end of the spectrum ...
