Valentine’s Day, Part 3

per-

(A prefix; connotes modification, intensification, as in perfection . . .)

My Dear, if I say you are gorgeous:

You knock my eyes out!

What if I say Hey, Per-gorgeousness?

Have I eyes enough to last? I hope so.

    I’m a bit of a Writer’s Almanac fiend (http://writersalmanac.publicradio.org/) so when I read it it was in Garrison Keillor’s voice.

    Hmm! I guess all those years of PHC on Saturday evenings had more effect than anticipated.
