Courtesy Counts

All Aboard the Meme Express – Tuesday, September 2, 2008

September is National Courtesy Month in the United States. (Has anyone noticed?)

“Intelligence and courtesy not always are combined;
Often in a wooden house a golden room we find.”
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
American Author
(1807 - 1882)

Today, our Meme Express prompt is all about courtesy:

Do manners matter?
Has etiquette become forget-iquette?
Is chivalry really dead?

Feel free to use the quotation, questions and image . . . or not. It’s up to you!

Post your poem, story, song, photo or other entry on your blog. (Be sure to include a link to the Meme Express. Grab our train graphic from the sidebar for your link, if you want.)

Then come back here, and post a comment with a link to your own entry. (Need help making an active link? See Super-Simple Linking. Feel free to bookmark it for future reference!)

Of course, if this prompt seems to stump you, you are free to peruse the archives of the Meme Express and publish a blog post on an earlier prompt.
