The teddy's and the spartans are having so much fun up there in Info& I thought I'd make a big deal out of it.
With *cracks like:
...was axe a question-and-
...was hammer home the answerIt's good to see all that good nature
needling going on.
Anyone else got any
gasoline for this
fire?
Sorry, I just can't match it...
what, are we gonna have some sort of flame war?
What? All Bic-cause Smarteye an G-Ted were Doolin?
...Doolin
Walk that *kinda talk up to &Announcements...
..this here is the whipping post for &Fun.
No more doolin' for me 'n Ted ... we've buried the hatchet (although I checked my back for the blade).
So whip me, then

I thought you were just blowing smoke. I should've given that one the third degree. All I can expect now is the cold sholder.
Oh, goody, I can't refusee, as I have a flare for things like this.
I knew we could count on the horses mouth to be here. The writing was on the wall.
Perhaps I should start quoting Burns.
this is some blistering repartee.
Well, eta, it has certainly brought a spark of life to the thread
Just you bea content with what's we's a-writin', gal!
George?
TEd, who has a propanesity for good puns, be he ever so Humble
indeed, TEd - you're a stalwart member of the pundits club, and I've seen you proudly wearing the cclub's blazer.
Hot diggity! We sure got these coals glowing and the steaks are starting to sizzle!
- and don't fergit the hot pies! We'll have to elect someone to look after them - s/he'll be the pie-er
George?
Montgomery?

For a while there, we were firing on all cylinders. It looks like we ran out of gas. Someone needed to give this thing a kick-start.
It's my fault, musick - I've just been arson about.
can't hold a candle to you, Rhuby...
Most enlightening.

this thread has taken a shocking turn.. I think further posting might be electricfying. maybe we should pull the plug on it now.
Ah, no! Not now I'm all wired up for it! I'm just going to charge ahead and go with the current, producing revolting puns. As I am father to wit, so I am pére to puns.
Volta be next? the current flow seems headed for the ground.
There's a loose
connection somewhere . . . although I usually try to
insulate myself from such things, someone
relayed the information to me that this was all my
fault! But I re-
fuse to believe it, just for
starters.
i dunno, CB, i think you have generated some new ideas. between you and the commando, i think there is an amp-le supply
loved learning this about you--i am pere to .. very well done!
Well, helen, it is because you made the switch to electrify this thread - I've just put a plug in the gap.
So, c'mon, guys - socket to me.
Now that's what I'd call a lightning response, eta!
well, thanks! I was alternating between that and another.
What you didn't go directly to the point?
what sort of circuitous route did you take? what impeded your resistance? Could you be LED a better way?
I seem to have fallen into a series of responses...
could be worse.. you could be in a parallel world.
-- or be a member of a cabal
It's time to switch this to the 'on' position. Y'all're starting to look like 'deer in headlights'.
I don't zinc we need to put up with this battery, copper...
I'm just tryin' to getch'all charged up.
last time I was involved with, battery, copper and charge, I ended up in a cell
Dry or wet? It's easy to be positive about the first and negative about the second, don't you find?
I guess Rhuby, that was on account of bad conduct?
Hardly, I suspect, a current event. IN fact, I would imagine it was a faraday ago. Perhaps not back in the days of Coulombus, but Watt do I know for certain? Did you sit in the cell and chant Ohm until you were bailed out? Here bail would have been set by a circuit court judge, but I suspect you have another name for your magistrates back in the ohm country.
In short, I remained static, for this was all for which I had the capacity. They tried to pylon the charges, but a wire to my lawyer ensured that the potential for electrocution as a punishment was averted.
I recoiled in horror when I saw this, but then in thinking about it I realized they would hardly have had grounds. Earthy comments, perhaps, but not grounds. I'm certain you;ll remember this unless some trauma happened which would spark gaps in your memory. Of course there's always the flux of time to take into consideration, but having met you I know that you combat time with some resistance.
I usually read poetry when I'm feeling old. You might try odes to see if they work for you.
Which reminds me of one of my better efforts some years ago. A friend of mine bought an ancient funerary urn while in Athens, and I was able to get his wife to give me the charge slip for it. I framed it for him for his birthday, and he still proudly displays the frame with the title: Owed on a Grecian Urn. True story.
- twenty years ago, it was about 50,000 drachma a day, I believe.
This thread sure has some live parts to it!
I thought I'd be back in a flash but was de-energized and decided to take a journey, man. It was a blast!
kai su is the Greek for et tu. Suetonius gives Julius Caesar's last words as being in Greek: kai su teknon (and/even you (my) son).

Yeah, I figured that out, when I asked you and you replied. My troubles come from your engaging in the pun fest. Hence the rhetorical question.
All seriesness aside, no need for short tempers. Time to hook this thing back up.
"breaker, breaker, 19, I think someone tripped up on that one..."
A shocking display of frivolty among the cyberspace e-lite.
very illuminating, zed...
