Somebody said we should build a wall around this thread to keep folks like like Gene and J Morgan from typing words that red blooded Air Forums folks can't understand. Just ain't rite.
Gene should pay for the wall because he started it. And...I suspect he has gotten a lot of cash and hasn't paid the dentist a dime.
I've got the assumpsit thing myself but it does get better with salve. No cure for the res ipsa thing I hear.

Hi, and if they argue about this wall it might just get ten feet taller.

No, what just ain't right is attributing high-fallutin' Latin words to a red-blooded plain-speaking American like Will Rogers.

What Will Rogers actually said on July 28th, 1935 was, "The minute you read something and you can't understand it you can almost be sure that it was drawn up by a lawyer."

Scratching the itch of curiosity, why is it that…

…a person who drives a semi-tractor/trailer is a trucker, while

…a person who drives a truck is a motorist, while

…a person who rides a motorcycle is a biker, while

…a person who rides a bike is a cyclist?

Isn't English just the weirdest language that way?

English is the weirdest language in many more ways that that. I am sure there are more exceptions than there are rules. When I first started Spanish class in high school, I was amazed that you can look at a written word and know right off how to pronounce it.

Why do we drive on a parkway, and park in a driveway? --from a George Carlin bit.

If you don't tow your 16ft Bambi with a 1 ton dually you'll die instantly and you'll kill others! And then a lawyer will sue you because you didn't use the proper hitch.

Whew, wanted to get that off my chest.

You cant be too safe. The best tow vehicle is class 8 truck tractor with a good weight distribution hitch, and an AIR SAFE hitch OF COURSE.

I'm not even always sure which way to turn the nut, but I'm sure I'm a mechanic.

At least, I think that's what they call me.

Maybe it's really maniac that they're shouting.

Ya think?

Better to be unique than to be ordinary. At least you'll be remembered!
