Manuscripts I'm not too bad about, but in memos I can get a little out of hand.
My longest sentence was the following memo:
RE: unjustified and extremely excessive use of paper by the preparation of and writing of memorandums in excess of the minimal requirements of the scope necessary to convey the appropriate information [FONT="]
[/FONT]
In thinking about your expressed and reasoned opinion regarding the unjustified and extremely excessive use of a commonly found fibrous material that is usually manufactured from living entities commonly identified as trees, one of the sites at which this material was formerly manufactured in would be Berlin, New Hampshire, which is a city in New Hampshire that is sometimes referred to as north of the notches, and by the way, if you had ever visited Berlin, New Hampshire while paper was being manufactured in the aforementioned city, you would be aware that the production of the aforedescribed fibrous material results in a noticeable, and some believe, though others might disagree, unpleasant odor, which permeates the entire region of the aforementioned city that is north of the notches, to wit, the City of Berlin, New Hampshire, anyways, to get back to the point of this memorandum regarding your expressed and reasoned opinion regarding the unjustified and extremely excessive use of a commonly found fibrous material that is usually manufactured from living entities commonly identified as trees, which, to clarify the discussion regarding this fibrous material that is usually manufactured from living entities commonly identified as trees, is commonly and more normally referred to as “paper,” although the word “paper” can be used for other purposes, such as requiring students to have to hand in a “paper,” and as an interesting side point, paper can be made out of other material than fibrous material that is usually manufactured from living entities commonly identified as trees, including such material as formerly worn clothing that has outlived its usefulness, in other words, “rags” or from straw which I wasn’t aware could be made into paper but I often find it interesting that when one is involved with one subject that another area of knowledge can come up, such as the fact that straw can be made into paper, which reminds me that in the Orient, rice is also used to make paper, though I believe that rice paper costs more money than one normally is required to expend on paper made from the fibrous material that is usually manufactured from living entities commonly identified as trees, anyways, realizing that this memorandum is beginning to go into divergent paths that detract from the purpose of this memorandum which is, to remind you in case you have lost sight of the purpose of this memorandum, to discuss the unjustified and extremely excessive use of a commonly found fibrous material that is usually manufactured from living entities commonly identified as trees, trees being a renewable resource, which means that even though an individual tree might be destroyed in the making of the fibrous material which is commonly used for writing on, although it can also be drawn on or made into paper airplanes, a subject for which there are books describing the many versions of paper airplanes that one can make, which makes another diversion from the original purpose of this memorandum, which I have never understood the reasoning for reducing it to the word “memo” as the word “memorandum” flows off of one’s tongue in a graceful and polished manner, instead of the blunt and directness that results when one uses the word “memo,” unfortunately, I have just realized that having entered onto a second piece of paper that I have now incurred the need to use a metallic substance, such as a paperclip or staple, so that I can combine the first sheet of paper with this, the second sheet of paper, so that this memorandum stays together as one document, rather than getting separated and potentially causing confusion as to what the second sheet of paper is about, or leaving confusion when arriving at the end of the second page as to the conclusion of this memorandum, but the use of either a paperclip or staple involves the use of another resource, which could also be viewed as being either excessive or unreasonable, but, even if so, does not seem to be germane to the issue under discussion in this memorandum, to wit, the unjustified and extremely excessive use of a commonly found fibrous material that is usually manufactured from living entities commonly identified as trees, as either the use of a paperclip or a stable involves the use of a metallic object that is not manufactured from living entities commonly identified as trees, however, in trying to keep this memorandum as brief as possible, and avoid the unjustified and extremely excessive use of a commonly found fibrous material that is usually manufactured from living entities commonly identified as trees, please let me state that I disagree with your opinion. (please note that I have been very conservative with wasting periods)
A mere 812 words. And I was a bit bored.
Best of luck,
Jim Clark-Dawe
