Now, if I were Ernie, I would know better, but I'm not and I don't, so:
This thread makes for some funny reading! Folks, get a grip - there is no 12 year old, it was a sarcastic stab at a similar previous post made by someone else. Nobody's buying the ragging on Capt Jeff - too many people know him. His character speaks for itself and I seriously doubt he needs any of us to defend him. As for obtuse (and "a little obtuse," who are one & the same), while his initial jab was unnecessary all of you who just couldn't resist chiming in merely encouraged him - and truth is good sarcasm takes some degree of intelligence and he got lots of you pretty good. He's a funny, if ocassionally rude, guy - too bad the two aren't mutually exclusive

go back in time law...much of what you say is true but.....

followed it all - on all threads. perhaps you're correct, occasionally probably wasn't the right word - still and all . . .
and Mal please tell me you knew dp said sacred not scared
