There was an American President known for using few words (mostly under three at a time).
Once at a Washington cocktail party he was confronted by a woman who said, "Mr. President, I bet my friend that I could make you speak using more than two word sentences." The President asked, "How much?" The woman stated "$10". The President replied, "You lose." :smoke:
I'm not the President. ;)

For me it is two fingers, also neat, of the Balvenie 12year single malt.
Reading lamp.
No cigar, nor dogs.
A few books strewn about my desk and a plethora of printed out sheets from various documents as I try and make sense of these order of battles and to&e's.
No wonder I drink!

Ah, Silent Cal an underrated president.
I actually learn something from these forums. The game generates some passion, that says something for it, I suppose.
As for adhominum attacks, as Silent Cal would say, "heck no."

Big?
oooopps wrong topic.
I did get my very first letter of reprimand in 23 years for sending a smart a$$ reply email to a co-worker.
I decided to have it framed (cheap frame) and placed on the wall right above my work computer.
It sits proudly next to my awards & certifications.

Ah, scotch. :)
William Grant, world renowned.
I've never been much for scotch but, I have had bosses who swore by it.
I will raise my glass and do a virtual "clink" against yours. Sip it slow and swirl it. Swallow and enjoy the burn. :smoke:
Salute!
Sort out all those papers. Back to work! (someone has to speak for Jim?)

I don't find you (your words here) repugnant or anything else for that matter, you have your right to your opinion.
I just find it all very sad that to go to these extreme lengths by out typing anyone who disagrees with what is obviously your and some others in this forums vested interest.
