Welcome o Doliy from her old friend Bill. I KNOW she'll do a GREAT job.
Good enough..
My grandfather had some interesting, and dementedly funny, tales to tell of WWII.
We were speaking about the M-9 bayonet that I got issued in uniform, I hated it due to being able to break it, and grandpa pops out with, "I had a knife once. Gave it to a German."
Now, we'd never heard of Grandpa being friends of any kind with any Germans, so we were intrigued.
So we asked him, "Really? What did he say when you gave it to him?"
Grandpa goes, "He said 'Auuuuugh'."
Tell him that it is okay!
Sorry for making fun of him!
Mine too Mike.. every Troll thread is resplendent in FReeper wit & outstanding graphics.
FReepers are so talented!
The Spelling Chequer:
Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar writ
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.
Tell him hello, and we are really, really glad to have him
Very nice to meet you, Bill.
We DO have manners, and you ARE welcome, we just tend to get silly.
And *this* silly thread is in your honor.
BTW, thank you for your service to our country. It's our honor to have you here, but don't think you'll ever live THIS down. ;-D
I always refer to the spell check button as the 'spelling chicken' that pecks my post to death.
no apology.. he will love it. He has been at FReeps & knows several FReepers..
I still have yet to live down my typo of "Ganags of Epopel", but it is quite useful for humor sake.
I too have had posts just like this that I have regretted after reading the whole deal.

Scarmable on over here! (read up to post #118 before replying, though)
Sorry about that Wheelbarrow. I take back my troll alert.
I'm pretty sure you are terminal.
I have to tell you that one night, I got quite a fit of giggles over "ganags of epopel." Hub was looking puzzled, and couldn't help laughing along, so I tried to explain, and just couldn't quit laughing long enough! He had to read the whole thread with me!
I pronounce the second word, "Ee-popple" and I love it! I dearly love FReepin fun. ;-D
You know, I didn't bookmark the thread where the poster typed "Scarmbled".
I feel like a dunce now.
Hey, we all stune the beeber once in awhile.
Scarmable? I am howling laughing here! Tinker thinks I've gone completely nuts! Have mercy!
