    Possibly. None of your punches were connecting, however, which explains why you needed to be bailed out.

    Creekster was correct, but if you go back and read the thread, cowboy had already said almost the exact same thing this morning. So technically, creekster didn't deliver any punch. He just provided an instant replay.

    You, on the other hand, dodged a series of questions and inadvertently revealed some stuff. Manti and X take note.

      What is so cool about a mask of Gilgamesh spouting birds superimposed over the Snake River Valley? Seems like real mishmash to me.

      3D, regarding imagining personal data from subtexts in posts, I don't think you want to go there. Yours are rich with innuendo.

        That isn't the Snake River. That is the Tigris/Euphrates Delta. Cant you see all the evergreen trees? Those are the Cedars of Lebanon.

        PS I am not imagining. I am simply reading.

          You kind of hit on my biggest frustration with some of the other places.

          There are people who think they have the answers, and who are not so much interested in discussing the various dimensions of the topics as they are at imposing their viewpoint of what is right and what is wrong.

          Honestly, I think that's my biggest beef with Tex, and the reason why I try to stay out of the discussions over on CG (yeah, every once in a while I feel a little frisky and try to provoke him, but mostly, it's just too much work for no satisfactory discussion).

          And I don't know about everyone else, but I find that the more I learn, the more I realize there's so much more to learn. Maybe others are happy with their knowledge level, but I don't know that I ever will be.

          And if someone things that's a bit sanctimonious, they can bite me.
          If we disagree on something, it's because you're wrong.

                  The impressive aspect is how well TD had his comrades duped. TD could care less about either side of the argument. He's the boxer in the center of the ring, pounding his gloves together, ready to take on all comers. But he's outdone himself this time. Not only did he get a bunch of pro-reticence advocates pissed off, he duped the others, his "allies," into adopting and defending an absurd position. It was brilliant.

                    I argued his position before he entered the ring.

                      I didn't argue in favor of his position. I consistently argued in favor of following Mormon doctrine.

                            Hey now, I think you are completely mischaracterizing what I meant by 'sweetie,' and you are also mischaracterizing Carriage Cove.

                              I wanted to reiterate my cyber love for all my CUF contemporaries. One of the things I really enjoy about this group is the ability to let discussions go, get a bit heated, and then allow self-moderation and cooler heads to prevail.

                              This is a nice thought, TD.

                              In this spirit of this thread, perhaps you would consider toning down your recent animosity toward Babs.

                                I'm not a huge fan of being accused of lying, if I haven't made my stance on that issue pretty clear by now. Stay out of it.
