Re: brass acorn

I guess I wont challenge him to a duel then. I'll just sit under my oak's and enjoy the scenery on the bayou. May eat a few acorns, drink a mint julep.

Re: brass acorn

This is lame and proves most here do not get out enough. I am guilty to since I keep reading this junk. I am sure it is something, not sure it is squirrel bait, this is like that damn bullet found in the lake,it goes on and on endlessly, why, I have not a clue. No value of any significance, it just continues, I guess now Get A Life is well meant!

Ditto tchimes.I'm glad this nutcase is over with!!!!!!! Go ahead diving doc I know you have somethimg to say.

Re: brass acorn

Bravo Jack! Touche! Come on Chimey, are you going to let him get away with that? I can tell someone of your grace and pomposity wouldn't let some crusty old barnacle scraper get the best of him!!!!

OK folks, did I stir it enough, or should I go on?

I think we are being scammed. But don't say you heard it from me. Looks great though. Good job at trying to bury this thing.

Sure doesn't sound like he's ever crossed the line, does it? Jack

Sorry Chimey, Navy Joke about crossing the line (equator).

Re: brass acorn

Well I am not Navy,was almost, but decided against it. Later in life bought my own ship, well a couple of them.

You do understand that a ship, technically speaking, is in excess of 200 feet. Boat= under 40'. Yacht= 40'-199'11"

If you really have a couple of ships, I would be surprised, but I never questioned your skippering skills! You know, this was, for the most part, an entertaining thread.

Another thing I don't think chimes gets is that Jack is Doc's evil older brother!

Almost only counts in hand grenades and horse shoes. What's the difference between a ship and a boat? (just for instance) Jack

Don't forget Claymores and small nukes!

Re: brass acorn

Well Gollum then you are surprised

Quite possibly! Names please! My specialties were electronic communications, light and heavy weapons, with a minor in demo! I left the driving to others!

God! I was just about to post that I was happy things had gotten civilized, so we could degenerate back into squirrel lure jokes, but.................there we went again!

ME WANT HAPPY NOW! ME WANT HAPPY NOW!WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH11

Re: brass acorn

I can see you are peasants, poor people, never have much, never will so anyone that does is a fake, what losers!

Excuse me! Cold you please pass the Grey Poupon?

and you, my dear chimey need to learn English grammar and punctuation. I actually live in South Orange County California. Laguna Niguel to be exact. Why don't you take a look at what the median home prices are here? I wonder why I still live here sometimes! Have to get on the freeway just to go to the head! But let's get on subject........

Chimey, I think you've been watching a little too much Frasier, and not taking enough intellect from it! I didn't say you were fake! I just asked for ship names, so I could check the registries, and start an entirely new string to apologize to you! But if you can't name them, weeeeellllllllll..........we understand.
