Yes, I remember all of those threads.

I ALWAYS "tell it straight"! I am NOT a game player, do NOT talk about things I know little to nothing about, and can ALWAYS back up what I post.

It is, therefore, unwise to attempt to refute me on facts. Opinions may differ,but facts are facts and irrefutable. :-)

I am NOT refuting!

Facts vs manners.

Somehow, manners left.

My opinion.

And by-the-by, this ridiculous thread is still posted to NEWS; which makes you a liar and someone just looking for a flame war.

Follow you own incivl and unasked for advice and check out which forum site this was and is posted on.

Why are you asking me about WebTV, which I posted about on another thread days ago, on this thread ?

But, to be civil, yes, I began life on FR on WebTV and used it for much of my stay here. I never did cotton to computers and yes, we had one. But of course, since you obviously have been reading all of my posts for the past several days, you already knew all of that.

Don't you have anything better to do, than to search for all my old posts and then attempt to high jack this thread? But thanks for proving that you are stalking me and attempting to bait me into a senseless flame war. ;^)

How about moose do you like moose?

Come on, you gotta get the ø thing right.

It's Møøse.

It's not fair to dilute Python humor, they revel in mocking the mundane. A Møøse once bit my sister ...

It took me a while to find the HTML code again, but it's an ampersand followed by oslash (with no spaces).

Speaking of which, the humor on FR is the best way to unwind. After almost a month of news radio & Foxnews non-stop lingering on the Schiavo and Pope deaths, I've got no better place to unwind and have a few laughs.

I can't be bothered to lurk there, but I doubt DU has as much humor.

If you're gonna cry, you gotta laugh.

I knew a girl named Ping, once...

I once knew a girl named Ping
Who liked to dance and sing
While dancing in church
On her arm she did lurch
Now she flies with a prayer but no wing!

She had a dog name Pong...
That jumped and yapped all day long..
But the pooch wore out his fansy..
And pissed on her panties..
And now the doggie is gone..

It's the opening portion of the formal name of "Ping, ping, ping... Ricochet Rabbit!"

"Ping" comes from the sound of radar, I believe.

Radar has no sound, since radar will work in space, and as we all know, "in space, no one can hear you scream."

Sonar is sound based...

Sorry, it's late, and it's been at least 10 minutes since I've been a smart-ass.

That's ok. I am technically challenged, and am glad for the clarification. Sonar it is!
