[lojban-beginners] why won't jbofi'e parse this?



So, I was going to do a twitter update of:
.aisai mi ba kelci la dy dy ry ja'e lo nu mi ba kanro
which I think is something like "determination I'm going to play DDR to get healthy"

But in checking it against jbofi'e first I find that it won't parse.  If I replace "dy dy ry" with another valid cmene it doesn't complain.  But I thought that "la" can take spaces like "la nicte cadzu" and "dy" and "ry" are valid lojban words are they not?

I'm confused about what this won't parse. 

Furthermore, it seems flukey about it, most of the time it just says "jbofi'e says" and then nothing.  Ocassionally (using the exact same string) it will say:
--------------------
SYNTAX ERROR IN TEXT
--------------------
Misparsed token :
lo [LE] (line 1, col 37)
Latest successfully parsed tokens :
ja'e [BAI] (line 1, col 32)
MARKER : PRIVATE_START_BAI
ry [BY2] (line 1, col 29)
dy [BY2] (line 1, col 26)
dy [BY2] (line 1, col 23)
la [LA] (line 1, col 20)
kelci [BRIVLA] (line 1, col 14)
ba [PU] (line 1, col 11)
--------------------
which I can't quite figure out.

Anyone have any ideas on this one?
