I agree, John. Of course, it would still be "windy"...and that is an adjective.

Good one! Overuse is the problem. These words wouldn't be parts of speech if they weren't needed. Like the humour, though.

Ha! Tell that to Craig. Although, they can be overused but your point is well taken. They are the spice of poetry
