By noting the silliness of your arbitrarily assigned and therefore meaningless story about rowboats? I think not. I don't expect any compliments from your ilk to begin with so as not to be disappointed. As for sarcasm, your self opinion in that area extends much further than your skill.
No doubt you would contend that a horse chestnut was the same thing as a chestnut horse.
Curious - another catchy yet irrelevent saying arbitrarily tossed out into this discussion, and a Lincoln one at that (he used that one to deny that he believed in black equality, you know). Is that what you pass off as a debating style? I ask because as of the present you have not even addressed my original post to you, much less any of the content in subsequent posts.
What's the reference by session and page?
I already put the copy back in my file cabinet and i'm not looking through there again tonight. The date was December 2, 1856 though so you should be able to find it with relative ease.
