I've gotten the impression that Hero is wont to make up and exaggerate stuff for effect. I'm never entirely sure when he's being serious or real about something.
It's a feeling I have.

But he can be gorram funny Chrisisall

Also, his spelling ain't so good for a lawyer...but then I ain't one to throw stones in that particular direction, huh?

And can anyone tell me what exactly this means?

I can't seem to make sense of it except by way of purely guessin'.

I'm not sure if HERO is sure! It certainly lends an air of mystery to his writing!

It's more specific than that SargeX. But... nevermind.

Didn't go to any funeral, my friend's hasn't happened yet, they think it will be Sunday. I went to the local memorial service at our church. There were several round the area, including a big one with Dennis Kucinich.

Hmmm... Tough crowd. I said "a card". Turns out when you go into the local mall they have this store that sells cards for all sorts of occaisions. Passing the birthday and anniversery sections I came across a section filled with cards offering condolances. I purchased one, added my own sentiment to the interior, sealed it in the envelope and presented it. I did not include a business card or birthday cash.

True. If God hadn't invented Spellcheck, I'd have never made it through lawschool.

Now alot of what I write on this board is just kinda a 'flow of ideas' and not edited for spelling or grammer unless there is a glaring flaw. Sometimes I am a deliberty in my choice of language as well.

Certainly. I'm sure there's a lot of simple things ya'll need help with.

Works like this. I sat and wrote and was all angry and such and when I was done I read back what I had written. I noted one or more ideas that would draw negative attention. Never the less I felt the sentiment to be such that I did not edit it to protect the fragile intellects possessed by the local liberal caball.

In other words, I felt it, wrote it, then sent it. As I said, I expected people herebouts to take issue with the political context, after all some of the people round these parts seem to hold a certain dislike for President Bush. I was a bit surprised that so many of the responses were personal to me.

Reading on, as I have, you have all helped correct me of this mistaken impression.

Naturally I would never stoop to that level and launch baseless attacks on the character of any member of this board. Nope, all my attack will be base...er...wait...dammit, you get the idea.

I used to have to copy entire postings by several other people so as to avoid post-editing. I guess if I bother to comment or reply to you in the future, I'll have to make it a standard practice.


Nearly everything I know I learned by the grace of others.

Come to think of it, I'm a liberal with no morals, I could simply change the quote in my message to reflect whatever lies I want to tell in my neverending effort to subvert the war on terror that arises from my inability to get over the 2000 elections and make up for my small, insignifigant manhood.



Thats a good idea. I've edited my posts, but only if I see a glaring grammer problem or something and only within moments of posting them. After that its hands off as far as I'm concerned. And I'd never (again) edit someone elses for my own ends.

I'd suggest next time you either copy the sentance in question or else read it a bit closer the first time. I'm guilty of something similar when I looked at this kid's fake driver's license, I assumed his birthday had been changed to make him over 21, I was wrong. My bad. SHoulda paid closer attention. Glad I caught mistake before the jury trial.
