La = I’d.
Zama = hit.
Taz = it.

That's not what you said 10 years ago...but I like it.

I wouldn’t have hit it, ten years ago.

My great, great great great great grandfather was at the first tea party. My tagline ‘I am a tea party descendant - steeped in the Constitutional legacy handed down by the Founders’ somewhat explains it.

A couple dozen or so of my relatives of that time, with my surname, fought in the Revolution. I am of that mold, and believe that true freedom requires that we get back to that Constitutional basis that was extablished by the Founders of the Republic. Yes, I am a revolutionary, in that same sense.

If you had joiced right the first time you wouldn’t have to be re-joicing.

It’s my name with the last name abbreviated to keep net kooks from calling me at home.

I chose my signon name honor of someone I’ve never met and am only related to by marriage, but from whom I draw much of my inspiration–a former Supreme Court Justice named Pierce Butler.

Most people have never heard of Pierce Butler, and many of those few who have probably view him as something akin to pond scum. Pierce Butler was one of four Supreme Court Justices who stood up to FDR and questioned (and voted on) the constitutionality of much of the New Deal. These four men came to be known as the Four Horsemen of Reaction, a nickname that was definitely not positive—implying these four men were bringing about the apocalypse as a result of their stand against much of the New Deal.

But despite the derogatory nature of the nickname, I decided to take on a version of it in honor of this long-gone ancestor-by-marriage and as a means of proudly declaring my own strongly Libertarian leanings. If I can even in a minor way continue the small-government tradition embodied by these four former Supreme Court Justices, I will feel I have done right by the sign-on name I’ve chosen.

“My great, great great great great grandfather...” correction, this should read only 4 greats, not 5.

A better translation (in context of a female) would be: אני רוצה לה מכה

I had been lurking for a few months and on the night I signed up a burn on the back of my neck was bothering me. I had gotten that burn slinging malformed magnesium ingots back in the crucible. A splash of mag rolled down the back of my neck, under my foundry coat and caught in the collar of my shirt.

Smith & Wesson model 6906 - my favorite carry weapon. It was all I could come up with when I joined.

Shortly after my birth, my father raised me toward the heavens on a starlit night and proclaimed...No, no wait, that was the miniseries "Roots".

LOL! My mind went to Lion King.

I mean to say, “this is what I yam” is kinda pedestrian and lame, isn’t it? But to impersonate someone you ain’t, that’s sumpin’!

Well most people are pedestrian and lame compared to a comic super genius like you.

What is Hebrew for "The llama is in jeopardy of being romantically abused"?

Because here it is in Russian: Лама находится под угрозой, которая будет подвергнута сексуальному насилию.
