It's all in good humor. Even if some of the humor has a little bit of a "biting" edge. This isn't the first time that I've been accused of being snide and sarcastic. Of course, those accusations were by other Americans, so their validity might not be up to the standards held by some societies. Keep the faith.

I don't see any difference in standards here in the USa or in all the other nations of the world. Things can and do get twisted etc. everywhere at the local and national levels of societies.

That's why I formed my own country, the Republic of Chris.

Please exercise a sense of humor when replying here, or you risk proving the original assertion beyond a shadow of doubt.

Its cool Chris,
I cound that as sarcasm, even if it is a little on the hostile side, and thats (apparently what this threads about) lets not go down the route of flame wars! please keep your attacks on other people in the spirit of the thread! (snide and sarcastic)

Oh. OK. Then we can just throw boogers at everyone as a minor form of Top Secret Get Smart Spy Guy Felix the Cat Bags of Tricks Germ Warfare ploys/attacks??

Silly Urapeons or Urapeeins all over the place.

I just don't knowe anymore!! What is this world coming too, or maybe already has become?? [X(][&:][8|][&:]

Now now, the boys have been working very hard, and it's taken a lot of time and effort to get this patch out. Let's give them a break for once. The last thing they need is to be badgered.

That said, when is the patch coming out?

I think your confusing sarcasm with mild simmering homocidle rage.
over here we get it out of our system with Bonfire night, - the 5th of november celibration of the attempt to blow up the houses of parlement. originally started to remind people how lucky they were that he failed, its now shifted to fireworks and bonfires (poor guys still burned in effergy) but the feelings shifted more towards "well, at least he tried"

no..no... mild simmering homocidle rage is what we feel while driving on the Beltway around DC... [;)] We relieve it by cutting off the same guy twice... though I do like your bonfire idea... The last really big bonfire around here was caused by the British during the War of 1812... [;)] Unless you count the Urban Renewel projects in Atlanta (1864) and Richmond (1865?)...[:D]

Unfortunately, I have seen large areas of Detroit burn in 1967 and through the years of the mid and late 1970's through the early 1990's. 1967 was the very large riot or 'armed insurrection against the government of the USA' as at least one person and report referred to the 1967 riot, and then during later times due to gangs and gang warfare and arsonist-thieves and just wild kids. For many consecutive years idiotic news reporters and other wierdos would come to Detroit to film all the fires that occurred every year on Devils Night (the eve before Halloween). I think one year there were over 1,000 fires, fires lit in abandoned buildings and homes etc. and in some not abandoned buildings and homes, over a period of 1 to 2 days. Our home and half of our small block was torched by arsonist-thieves in 1989, we lost just about everything.

The only humor I have concerning that nonsense is very caustic and sarcastic and sometimes bitter at a level of intensity that most people have not nor ever will be aware of, although there are many people that are aware and experienced.

'Burn baby burn!!' 'I am the god of Hellfire, and I bring you FIRE!!!' To quote J. Hendrix, 'Are you experienced? ...' H. Sienkiewicz' first novel of his great trilogy is entitled 'With Fire and Sword'. Don't be bored, but personally I would rather be bored.[;)]

Phhhhrrrrrrrttttttt!!!!!

Have a good warm and toasty day, but not too warm and toasty now, Chris [;)]

Only mild?? You gotta be kidding. The beltway and I-66 are suicidal! They are either going 80 or stopped. Either one gets my blood to boil!

I am so glad I moved away from the area.

Ok, so "mild" on a good day... Luckily I only have to sit on I-66 for two exits (about 6 miles) between my house and the Metro station... just bearable each day... of course it take 30 minutes to go those 6 miles while it take another 30 minutes to travel 20 on Metro. I've lived plenty of other places and still prefer the NoVa area.... call me sick... [;)]

bingo... [:)] Yea... Greenbriar is a mess these days. Glad I don't have to comute from there, rt50 can be worse that I66; those extra couple of miles can make a big difference. My location is almost perfect. I put only about 6000 miles on my car year because everthing I need is within a half mile to a mile (not counting the Metro station.) Now if they would open up a station here I'd be set...

Greenbriar itself is not bad (over priced but not bad). However you are right about rt 50. It is a mess from I-66 all the way out to South Riding (though it does ease up a little after rt 28).

... meant to say the comute was a mess not Greenbriar itself. The whole region is over priced though. I got lucky and bought new home in the mid 90's ... the houses on my street are selling for 2.5x or more their orginal prices. Not sure I could afford to buy my house at the current market value! Luckily I like what I have and the location so I'll most likely stay until I retire. Then I'll just move further out to some old civil war battlefield that they'll have redeveloped by then.... [;)]
