I think I must be insufficiently-inebriated to get that one.
I've enjoyed your Posts ever since I used to be "Uriel1975" Arne (ahh, the old days), but that one went right over my head.
Here it is, Cinco de Mayo, and me without even a single Corona in my fridge. Is nothing sacred?
I'll try to make sense of it on the morrow. I'm reasonably certain it has something to do with a, "Damn the Political Correctness, Free Speech ahead!!" Spirit of Admiral Farragut kinda thang, but I'm still trying to figure out if it is, in fact, discernibly English. Gimme some time to work it through.
;-) Best, OP
If I die by shit bludgeoning, I expect and order everyone to laugh and say "that's a helluva way to go. Too bad he's not around to field all the shit we'd give him.".
If I observe any human communication from you ... no, the icedung will come first.
I'm thinking your reincarnation is looking like a Praying Mantis gig. It's an upgrade. They're not much on warmth either.
May I second that please? Those who think voting for a third party because Bush doesn't do every single thing they way they want it, really need to think about what will happen if a RAT gets in office!

Go in peace. Don't forget to tip your bartenders and waitresses.
Jim Robinson's our "leader"?
And here I thought that he was just a guy who cashes the ridiculously small monthly credit I send him (not even double what I pay for Wall Street Journal), provides me with a ludicrously inexpensive News & Commentary Service (which I use, and read, vastly more than WSJ), and still puts up with more personal crap from me than, in Limbaugh-speak, "a human being should be allowed".
If he's my "fearless leader", I'm getting ripped off -- I didn't even get a chance to vote for him. He wasn't on the Florida Keys ballot the last time I went to vote. Cursed South Florida DemocRATs are always rigging the system, would be my guess.
Or maybe I just read the Butterfly Ballot wrong. Happens all the time, down here (not that the Pina Coladas have anything to do with that).
As a Floridian, I demand a Recount.
It's the Floridian thang to do.
I'll be heading your way to pull some sails out of your backyard. If that doesn't work I'll be taking all the keeper Grouper you fine folks in Monroe County have. It's gonna' be a bloodbath.
Shoot me your number when you get a chance.
Yeah, yeah... you talk a Big game, but over the last Winter Season, my Boss in Naples was laid up in bed for a week (when the cat is away, the mice will play)... and I still missed my chance to ship-wreck your boat on the reefs of Costa Libertaria, as was my fond hope.
Ship-wreck being practically a guarantee, given the fact that it's been eight years since I was piloting the helm... only way I'd miss Costa Rica, is if I was actually aiming for it.
But I'm happily willing to make a fool of myself on Grouper any time you like. Heck, if you really wanna throw away a perfectly good 100-pound line... it's about time for the Marlin to start running...
Cell Phone's in your FReepMail box.

This forum, this resource, is valued and cherished by many many people. It is singularly unique in form and ridiculously powerful in its potential to leverage information and co-ordinated action.
Jim Robinson is a man I admire greatly. He excels at a top 1% level in his commercial offering, yet he declines - in generosity and service - to charge his customers a top 1% fee.
So, anyone who is bent on smearing this business partner I admire, sabotauging this forum I value and exploit, is waging an assault on me. On all of us.
Homey Don't Play That Game! You jumped into this thread with the objective of filing greivance and bolstering a campaign that is solely directed to Jim Robinson's financial ruin and his forum's destruction. That's bad hearted bullshit, and you need to clean up your act. Lecture us on original intent, don't foment discord here in bad energy.
I'm not going to abide a smearing of Jim Robinson and an assault on a community I enjoy. Don't step up and vandalize something I am invested in right in front of my face. That's gonna be addressed, and shit gonna get busy. Knock it off.
So, the Darth deceit and all the Askel mewling and your sneering irrelevancy is just target rich to expose and ridicule. You don't have to contribute anything, you never have, but don't work to undermine Jim or this forum. That's contempt for the 8000 people who frequent this wonder.
Will the Circle be unbroken? Yeah, you are without any redeeming quality.
Our communiques are now terminated forever and ever. I don't walk down a primrose path looking to step in dog shit.
1. Please forgive if this is an insult to either you or Fred Mertz, but since you both have written pretty amusing posts (at least I find them worth a few LOLs, ack! Maybe you both write in all seriousness with no tongue in cheek... and by the way, what was all that about... oh never mind, I don't wanna hear...) are you and Fred Mertz one and the same person?
2. In a few threads I responded to Fred Mertz trying to be funny, since I assumed that Fred Mertz had written a hugh wisecrack. I never heard back. What if I was wrong? What if Fred Mertz was writing in a seriess mode? How could I express an apology to him, without making the situation worse?
3. How does one recognize a humorous post from anyone here? Sometimes I fear that what I find hysterically funny, others may not find amusing at all.
4. Recently I read allegations of trolls here in FR. Unfortunately I learned about trolls the hard way when I had the misfortune of running smack into their little traps on other internet sites.
Many times I nearly fell off their Billy Goat Gruff bridges into their slimey arguments and uproar threads. Sometimes other posters would privately clue me in as to the identity of these gnarly creatures. Other times I simply guessed.
Is there a committee of FR Citizens here where I could put in a request for a "heads up Troll alert," should I inadvertently stumble into a troll thread?
5. Sometimes I wonder if folks who've been here a long time harbor suspicions about newcomers having possible troll heritage.
I've been holding back a bit, partly out of shyness and partly because I don't want to get flamed, and partly because I would hate to put so much effort into my writing, only to have it pulled, or worse get my newbie self banned.
Do you have suggestions for newcomers to assuage potential FR troll suspicions?
6. Can you please direct me to the snack machine area? I'm hankering for a diet Coke and some cookies. Thank you. :)
FReegards.
