Dear wwh: May I commend to you my new "self-evident truths" only because I am living proof that "rising rank can become an odor problem". One should try to avoid being lynched on one's own thread. P.S. I seem to be on the horns of a dilemma. If I continue to post, I will eventually become a Pooh-bah myself. Then I shall have only myself to kick around. I wonder, wwh, how you managed to retain your appeal ... without strutting your "allure".

if I post again I will be a four-poster
Polemics, like politics, makes strange bedfellows, tsuwm. I have just now discovered your clever "ri-post" posted before my lamentable "paean". Makes me ashamed I posted it. I am unworthy of your forgiveness, tsuwm, but I ask for it just the same. When I came back here this afternoon to post my "Post Obitum", I wondered which was worse: Pooh-Bahnics or Plu-bonics. Now I have my answer. Its Plu-bonics. I have broken every rule in the book and I am hoisted on my own petard. Plu bids adieu to you, and to all.

Faldage is an im-posterBTW, Faldage is not an "im-poster", nor even an "un-poster" or a "non-poster". He is a phantom poster ... which makes him a "ghost poster" or a "ghoster" (for short). Adieu, Faldage.

To all bill posters, I say "Defence d'afficher ici." Faldage is not an imposter, he just marches to a distant drummer. So, plutarch, down omegatists, up alphatists. I am eager to be a betatist.

I am eager to be a betatist.And I am eager to become a pacifist, wwh. I have no idea what "stand" Faldage is taking, but I have offered no offence to him, nor he to me. Of this I am sure, wwh. One stand both he and I can agree on is that we have had a plague of bubonics of every description around here. And the thread is worse for the wear of it. I cannot pay Faldage a false compliment, but I cannot criticize him falsely either. For I know him only by his original blank post - which was surely outstanding - together with his "stand" on that "stand" (which, for all I know, remains outstanding). In any case, nothing I have ever posted was intended to reflect on Faldage personally. I'm truly sorry if he thought otherwise.

The very long threads become an annoyance to flatliners because they start to take a prohibitively long amonut of time to load. I haven't done any great studies but I suspect that this might be alleviated by having fewer posts per page.
Dear Faldage: I have been trying to understand how or why, you and I, who have never communicated, seem to have mis-communciated so miserably. I can only imagine that it has to do with "flat-lining". Please believe me that until you brought this issue to my attention, it was pretty much "beneath the radar", if you know what I mean. In any case, it is my hope that our relationship will not be flat-lined over a "flat-line" which I can state, quite flatly, is not "my line". If there is anything I can do to open up the lines of communication, please let me know. In the meantime, may I assure you that I am flatly opposed to any "lines", flat or otherwise, which do not measure up to your expectations. Your last message was blank and my people are operating on the assumption that that state of affairs simply reflected your thinking at that time. I have no doubt that your thinking will crystalize in the fullness of time and I would like to make it crystal clear that I am fully in agreement with any initiative which will help you to crystalize your thinking.

P.S. I have no idea who the Top Bah-nana is, but, please be assured of this. If it is an elective office, I will not stand for it. That is, I will stand in favor of the elective office, but not for the office personally. (Which is not to say that I will stand in favor of you standing for the office. That is really none of my business at this time, altho it may become my business, and the business of every other conscientous voter at the ballot box, but not before.) I do hope we have a thorough understanding here. As I have said, I do not know who the "Top Bah-nana" is (or "Top Bah-nanna", as the case may be), but I know who it isn't. It isn't me because I am not a "Bah-nana" to begin with. Nor do I choose to be. Nor will I stand for it, nor even run on about it if I am nominated. But I can say this, dear Faldage. Whoever the "Top Bah-nana" is, he should be very careful he doesn't slip on his own Bah-nana spiel. (I have heard it said that the road to aBah-mination is paved with good intentions, and it is a very slippery slope ... but please don't take my word on it. There are some things one is better off learning for oneself.)

I have one last thing to say, dear Faldage, which I would like to run up the flag-pole for your consideration. It really applies to me more than to you because you haven't really had a lot to say, and I don't have the advantage of knowing your position (nor do I have the position which gives you your advantage). So, here it is, dear Faldage. People with bad manors shouldn't rock the castle.
I am not of the castle born, Faldage, but I do know this. The castle does not belong to the lords, nor even to your humble vassals (like me).

Dear plutarch: you begin to remind me of the Indian in one of Abe Lincoln's anecdotes. The preacher had chided the Indian for loudly advocating a violent end to one of his enemies. The preacher said that if he prayed tor good things to happen to his enemy, it would bring down coals of fire on his enemy's head. The Indian prayed so loud and long for blessings on his enemy that the preacher finally asked him why he was praying so long. The Indian replied: "Me burnum down to stump."

Very good, wwh. I was tempted to do something with that "stump" image but I have restrained myself. Your Abe Lincoln anecdote reminds me of another. Abe compared a pompous opponent he once knew with a little barge with a big horn which worked the Mississippi in his youth. Every time the barge blew its horn, it came to a halt. Lots of noise, no work. Also reminds me of a line from GBS (Major Barbara) but I'd have to look it up to do justice to the quote.

And let Lord to the Manure born recuperate.My cup runneth over with remorse, wwh, at any rate, I am sorry. If AWADom was a monarchy, you would be my choice for King of the Castle. But, since it is not, could you give me an earl of your wisdom? To wit: 1. How does one become a peer of the realm, and does one have to be good at peering to qualify? Or is it a natural born talent? [Just kidding ... on both counts. I'm trying to get my manure together.] 2. How can you tell if a vassal is half-full or half- empty ... or, for that matter, just vassal-ating? 3. Can a vassal state a state of affairs to the state, or petition the state for a statement of its affairs, or otherwise complain that he is getting his knitting in a knot because he feels like he is being vassled, or, at any rate overly-vassaled, and why can't the lords tax someone else's thread every now and again? In the colonies, wwh, there is no tax at all without fair representation. In summary, then, is there any hope of reigning in some of the mightiest lords for their threads are full and heavy laden with the fruits of many labors, whilst my poor thread is only heavy laden with their lordships. I would not presume to say that the peerage of my lords is fruitless, wwh, or their appearage either, only that my thread is fruitless and bears them little fruit. And oftimes I feel that I am being overly reigned-upon. That is all I have to say about the peerage, wwh, for the meanness of my tongue, which, by virtue of the title you have conferred upon me, has raised me far above my station, might cause me to offer offence where no offence was intended. Yet do I ask, wwh, if there are not greener pastures for the peerage to peer into, and also for their appearage ... tho I hasten to add that they are certainly welcome to peer and appear as they like. And, what is more, the more often the better ... if they come not to tax my coinage, for it is base mettle unseamly of their notice. Having said so much to so little avail, wwh, may I leave you with this morsel of levity to ease the burdens of your heavy office? My gentle jocularity about the peers of the realm, brings to mind a British sex scandal many years ago involving a Minister of the Crown (who was also a peer of the realm), Profumo by name, and two very lovely ladies, of notorious virtue, Christine Keeler and Mandy Rice Davies. I'm not quite sure what happened to Mandy but I do recall that there was a rumor circulating at the time that she was found bobbing under a pier. In closing, wwh, may I assure you, that, whilst I come to you cup in hand, my vassal run is over. And we are all the better for it. All of which is respectfully submitted.

plut, as lawyers like you and I say, let's look at the record.
Given that you have penned 28 (!) of the 53 previous posts in this thread, it semms just a wee tad inaccurate of you to say, my poor thread is only heavy laden with their lordships. ... I feel that I am being overly reigned-upon ... being overly-vassaled, ... tax without fair representation."
The facts appear to be contrary to you claim, plutarch. Methinks the gentleman doth protest too much. Perhaps you might rein yourself in a bit?
and btw, it is presumed -- without the need for futher comment -- that your Profumo reference was not intended to impugn the sexual morality of members of this board.

I propose a fiefdom, right here in the land of Miscellany, to be presided over by plutarch -- a plutarchy as it were. he could call it the Kingdom of Chatalot and he would be (per force) King Plu, the Perfect. he would be free to appoint all of his own courtiers; I envision a Duke of Earl, a Duchess of Kenspeckle, a Marquis de Sad le Lac, a Sir Gar de Loo, a Lady b'Goode.... mayhap I could be the curt jester or word fool -- but I presume too much.

Hey, fellas, down more wine to mellow the mood. I hurriedly renounce any claim to precedence of any sort. And I swear on a stack of Bibles that I do not wish to offend anybody. All I want is lots of threads that may enable me to make ridiculous replies. Alphatists, where are you?

Rat cheer, Dr. Bill (see lipogram thread). And glad to be back, I think.
Meanwhile, some time ago there was talk about creating AWArDs for illustrious moments in this board's history: Best Pun, Most Interesting Thread, etc. I would hereby like to create the Best Exercise in Pointlessness AWArD and nominate this thread for it.

But this one poor thread, peer-reviewed so poorly, is more than enough appearage for me. Alas, Chatalot does not hold any Allure for me. Still, I may peer in from time to time in prospect of seeing you make a jest of yourself.

Your talents are more Sorbonne than leurborne, wwh. I know something about French accents, if not about the peers de la pays. May there be paix amongst the Poohs, wwh, as well as amongst their minions. Speaking for myself, I would much rather be a Pooh-Paix than a Pooh-Bah ... but it seems my thread will run out long before I get a chance to prove it. Nonetheless, if there is to be a pox on the paix, then I am apox-static.

Dear plutarch: I have been expecting someone who knows more French than I do to tell me that "leur" should be "leurs". I don't know how to check that.And I have not the energy to check lipograms, which at first I thought were greasygrams written with fat. Or maybe short poems of Li Po. Alphatists, where are you? Down in the caverns measureless to man?

You mean they're not! BTW I am not the French scholar you take me to be. I studied French for 2 or 3 years in high school but most of what I learned has faded thru disuse. Alas. Mes talents ont leur bornes. Let's see. Freely translated, I assume it means "My talents are my burdens." Would that be correct? At least you don't hide your light under a bushel, wwh ... wwhich is probably why your talents are your burdens, n'est-ce pas?

Dear plutarch: I could hide my light under a thimble. My modesty is not a pose but a painful necessity.I have a lot to be modest about. We do have a couple people who speak French, but they are not with us as often as I wish they were. Perhaps they may stop lurking if I let the mistranslation stand. I have been trying to find a way to make a post about salt, which is an extremely interesting but badly neglected topic. I have a URL about it, which is quite long, but has a lot of surprising facts.But no interesting words, alas. http://www-geology.ucdavis.edu/~GEL115/salt.html

Plu, are you joshing here? Isn't the plural possessive for my consistently mes? Leurs would be their plural possessive, I think, if my fading memory of French 2 has any glimmer of light...
wwh: I have a great salt word just for you: haloid, if you don't already have that one. Mrs. Byrne listed it along with saxify, meaning to turn to stone. I wonder whether there's any sense in "Saxified into a haloid pillar" would be understood as a biblical reference? It really sounds more like a drunk, doesn't it?

Dear WW: remember I committed another "YART" (another despicable early board put-down) in mentioning "below the salt" and saying I think it was dirty hands , not just low income that dictated the custom, because the salt was in an open topped box. I haven't been able to learn when salt shakers became common. And I knew salt was abundantly available for preserving fish.
I found a site that said Domesday Book listed a bit over 1100 places in England where salt for sale was obtained from saline wells or deposits located in shallow mines. But table quality salt was harder to get.That being the case, the hosts ought to have had a second inexpensive salt supply for us peasants.

"Mes" and "Leurs" together are "meilleur", Wordwind, and your French grammar is indeed better than mine. But I couldn't make sense of the phrase without translating it muy libre. (There I go exposing my inadequacies in still another language.) Perhaps wwh will enlighten me on his quote. How does it translate, wwh? As to salt, I am a bit of a selebrity, if only by geographic association. I was born in Windsor, Ontario (across from Detroit), the home of "Windsor Salt". No kidding. We Windsorites are not only famous for our cars. You may have some Windsor Salt in your kitchen, Wordwind, but I suspect Dr. Bill is salt-free. In any case, it is clear I have come down in the world quite drastically. I was born on top of the salt in Windsor and now I find myself sitting below the salt. About YART. I have my cryptologists working on that one and the best they have come up with so far is "Yale Alumni Rarely Tell" ... which doesn't ring true, somehow. So what does YART mean? BTW are you sure about the origins of the phrase "below the salt"? I think the inflection is more low caste than "low income". In medieval times, anyone sitting "below the salt" was of lesser rank. The salt line marked the blood line, so to speak. Costain wrote about this in one of his historical novels as I recall. And I must leave you with one more salt tidbit. They are coming out with a variety of celery which contains its own salt. Its called "selery". How's that for convenience! Now you can have your salt without sprinkling your potatoes. And its all natural too. Its grown in Windsor. (I hope that doesn't make me a laughing stalk or I'm going to end up in the stalkade ... again.  )

I guess I deserved that, Musick. 20 points 4 that YART. Those who live by the YART will die by the YART. At the risk of pouring salt in my own wounds, may I say that that is as it should be. A word, like a sword, drawn in anger, should not be drawn at all unless one is prepared to draw blood. And then it should be drawn only for something worth dying for ... figuratively speaking, of course.

wwh: I found some great stuff on salt on a link below! There are photographs of salt crystals, some pink halite and one a colorless halite that has a blue cast. They are very beautiful, in some cases. What was most interesting was the refining process, in which the mined salt is completely doused with water. When it dries, it forms something called a hopper. The link below will take you directly to a sketch of the hopper: http://www.minerals.net/glossary/terms/h/hopper.htmand this link will take you to a page that is loaded with information about salt: http://www.minerals.net/mineral/halides/halite/halite.htmThat's the page where you can click on the photographs of the salt crystals. I do want to read about the salt mines in Ireland... Best regards, Rocky

Now what did I do? Anyone who believes a YART is other than a blunt object wielded to prod the slow moving (and simultaneously amuse... or at least try) has a distinctly different approach to language than I... but then most people do.  I have noticed, in recent months, a propensity for self yarting more than any other kind... but, then again, I haven't been around the board enough lately to post those time saving links for the collective to assimilate... Oh, and just in case this comes up again (like in about 20 posts or so)... at work I have 8-10 times the average dial-up connection speed... so I generally won't spend the frustrating moments that the WorldWideWait has ensnarled most of the people here into... my empathy is reeling.

Dear WW: Thanks for the links. One important peculiarity of salt is that its solubility does not increase very much with heat, so that where it can be mined, that is more economical.
I was really baffled a year ago by story Mitsubishi wanted to put an enormous salt production plant on shores of Gulf of California. But there was reason to believe it would endanger whale breeding there, and it was cancelled.
Incidentally, "halite" name derives from Halle, Austria where it was mined thousands of years ago.
Dear Plutarch: your "selery" could be worth millions in phytoremediation in many areas of world that desperately need desalinization.

Indeed, wwh, that would be a bit like turning salt into gold. Isn't it true that at one time salt was so rare that it was used as currency. This would give new meaning to my coinage. But, one drawback, wwh, who would want to eat their Selery? They would certainly want to stalk up on it. I envision vast stalkpiles of Selery, wwh. Selery, Selery everywhere, and not a stalk to eat.

this link will take you to a page that is loaded with information about salt
Dear Wordwind: It is not really for me to 'tut tut' you about this, because I am a selebrity in name only. In matters of select taste, I refer to His Exselency, our own wwh (who deserves to be selebrated more often). In any case, one never invites someone to go to a link which is "loaded with information about salt". In salt circles, the unsalinated are sent to a link which is "salted with information". And those who don't have the good sense to go are sent to the salt mines.
