Me and him; we went fishing
I don't think so, Rhuby. Even if this sort of ellipsis were going through the heads of those who use this sort of grammar (and I seriously doubt that it is) it wouldn't be correct by SWE rules.

Max straightened me out and you, my dear ASp, welcomed me.
Max didn't welcome you? How grossly discourteous of him!

The abuse of "myself" knows no bounds. It's a form of myself-abuse ...

Thanks, everyone! Now I can sleep at night. Now that I see the word, I know that it's the one I was trying to think of. Boy, it makes such sense. How could I not be able to think of it? It seems like the simple, logical words are the ones that escape me sometimes.
