That sounds like a variety of weaseling, supporting both sides at once.
I hope not, wwh. You are a very civilizing influence on this Board and I respect what you have to say. That said, my experience of uber-speak is probably less benign than yours. How did the weasel get bummed with the rap of running in 2 different directions at the same time, anyway? In some circles, this is high art, more befitting a diplomat than a weasel. I have heard that there is a mythological animal known as a "Luferlang" that can run in either direction without turning around. Quite fittingly, its tail appears in the middle of its back. I do think we have to allow for some differences of opinion, wwh. One person's lovable
'uber-frugality' is another person's curmudgeonly penny-pitching. In my time, I have met both. Perhaps you have as well. No offence intended to your humane millionaire, wwh. My uber-innuendo was not intended for him (or the person who interviewed him, or the person who profiled him, either). (Can a 'weasel' run in 3 different directions at the same time?)
