Yes, but that's shorthand for you not understanding the argument being made. There's no shame in that, well, there is a bit.  :-[

Shorthand is, actually impressive. Various methods, some of which apparently patented. But stenography a dying art. Like a good tea service. Or like your new King who can't handle quills and must fire some people. Having said that, though cursive gone the wayside, I like the attempt. And do like how, in vaulted circles, one's signatures done with flourishes and odd personal touches. My guess is foreshadowing of AI and the awful 'prove you are not a bot.' I reckon there is code in protocols and such. Keep the hoi polloi down. Or, at least, id them?

You are aware there a new Jerusalem in that land of Satanic mills. A pleasant land in which lack of flossing, and brushing, is a source of pride. Braces are a thing only for rickets. Not teeth, somehow when Cromwell let 'them' back in it wasn't the dentally bases tribe members, just the banker ones. I don't know why. Probably some interecine, old book, dispute of which is clouded in intrique and hushed over.

They reckon they have. Quite stirring when things like cricket etc and singing breaks out. Really an excuse to drink for days. Skip work n such. And weird. Ashes. They so odd. At least the Muzzies have a space rock. N   Irish got some stone to kiss. I think Brit had stone, but under seat and purloined from Scots? We Vikings just left stuff around like stones for markings or tie up ships. 'Leave the stone, take those women. Kill those others.' I kid

Our paths crossed, unbeknownst to us, back in 2005, as I was there in Trafalgar Square cheering the boys on. You miss all this, being an uneducated scoundrel who is unable to appreciate the laws of cricket.

Quote from: Yorkshire pud on September 20, 2022, 08:08:34 PMThanks for blowing my cover. My handlers at MI5, CIS, MFI, CBI, LTR and UPS will not be best pleased. But when I'm not engaging in 'deep cover' for HMG my cover employment is being gainfully employed in a technical capacity which brings me into contact with natives from all walks of life and on the whole they're okay..some are funny folk, but I'll come to that. After almost six years here I've met the lot!

Memsaab of course is above reproach but even she says the locals can be dubious. I get asked at least once a week if I'm from London. (It doesn't get trite after the first hundred times); My reply is usually; "Oi, do I look like that sloe gin swilling southerner, SV? Well, do I?" At that point their eyes dart left and right and they're trying to work out if a) they do know you, b) if there's been a police bulletin when you might have been mentioned c) Did you appear on 'The Voice' or somesuch 'talent' contest. When it's clear they haven't heard of you (I know, I know) I explain I'm from the only county worth mentioning in England, that no, it isn't near London, no it isn't near Edinburgh either, or Paris, or Dublin.
 I was asked if I was Irish once, and when I said no, I'm English, she asked if I was sure...Generally if you're a Brit you get treated with more respect and it's assumed you're better educated. Seeing as the FED spend less than 1% of GDP on public education, it isn't difficult to believe. But there's no incentive to make it better because...well, draw your own conclusions. But having said that I'm working among some very capable people who really know their stuff.

The stereotype that most Americans don't really know much about anything outside the four corners of their garden (Or tarp if you're homeless) isn't without merit. And it's obvious when I meet those who have been out and about (Usually have a military background or quite wealthy). It took me a while to realise why that is. It isn't entirely a lack of curiosity or being insular and not caring, it's mainly financial. Unlike the UK, vacation days are not mandatory, and many (Not all) jobs require a full year's employment before qualifying for any leave. Sick days are not paid everywhere. And if you do get leave, it's fewer days than the 28 enjoyed in the UK. Which explains why most Americans who holiday in the UK are retired.
In California they have an 'easy in/easy out' deal with jobs, you can be fired on the spot without redress, but likewise you can leave without notice too.
The 'funny folk' tend to have a weird sense of reality and if you dare to dig down, are trumpers. I haven't met many, because it's northern CA, and the one's I have met are frequently from out of state. A few weeks ago I was at a customers place and one guy had his phone playing Alex Jones..and he was relaying to his colleague what the good lord Jones was selling, I mean conveying his wisdom. He blamed the wildfires in the state on Communists, yes really. Although most are not arson and those that are, the political leanings of the crim isn't usually made known. I didn't venture the question as to how he knew and why they would because his eyes bulged and I wasn't sure of his emotional containment. I quietly muttered 'Ooookaaayyyyy' and backed out of the room.

But fear not old man and when my boys get my private jet back into civilian configuration after it was pressed into service dropping food parcels to the peasants in Pacific Heights me and the fragrant Laura will take a visit to the home counties. I think we're still allowed to drop into Brize Norton, even though the copybook was blotted somewhat with that little jape 'Badger' Harris-White had on his thirtieth birthday bash back in 1993. Enough said.


I fear that you are like one of those naturalists who convince themselves that the apes they are studying have accepted them and aren't really dangerous after all. But, one false move and they're trying to chew your leg off. Don't forget that they aren't really human beings at all, they are just a genetic experiment that went horribly wrong, that's why we abandoned them several centuries ago, although they keep telling themselves them 'won' some absurd war that nobody gave a fuck about.

Just say the word and we can mount some sort of extraction effort, along the lines of Mussolini's. I can be Otto Skorzeny, coming in on a hang-glider, although I will have to make a brief detour to Raleigh NC to punch Walks in the face (it's on my bucket list), and we'll have to decide whether your rescue will come before or after I have settled accounts with that frightful squirt.

Six years is a long time to go without a decent cup of tea. I suppose you wake up every morning drinking coffee now, like some bloody Arab. I don't know why albrecht is always going on about teeth because there's nothing in that ghastly country worth eating anyway. You might be lacking vital nutrients from the all-Hamburger diet you're forced to adopt to fit in with the locals.

That was pretty awesome. Even I admit. I even got on the BBC- and didn't have to pay the licensing fees like you do. True the rules of cricket escape me. Something to due with spectators going on bender, watching lads in white clothes, but call it some kind of test. Then once winning the team itself goes on am epic drinking spree. And everyone celebrates. And, somehow, ashes involved, sometimes I guess like a certain Wednesday in some religions.

I heard the Stoon of Scoon or Stone of Scone (if you are going to insist on a dialect pronunciation, it should be consistent throughout) will be trucked back to London for Chuck to park his hams on next year sometime, otherwise he can't be king.  Surely some enterprising Scotsman can do the decent thing this time and hide it for real!

They should hide it in the same place in Edinburgh Castle where Sir Walter Scott "discovered" the Scottish crown jewels, i.e. put it in a little room and wall it off and tell everyone don't go in there the crown jewels are in there and then a hundred years later stage some big Al Capone's vault reveal where you bust it open to great fanfare, seemed to work before.  The Scots are not too curious or persistent, I guess.

Surprisingly it is common for people to have assets that they forget about. A safety deposit box, some old bond, some refund or deposit refunded but not taken. But it would be nice to have a whole lot of jewels and just 'forget' where I put them and also not worry about it. Until some heir decades later thinks 'I wonder where all those jewels are? Might be nice to have.'

Bank of America says Xiden has sent so many weapons etc to Ukraine or supplies are dangerously low.  Things continue as planned.

Biden riled up! A rare expression of coherence from the "Big Guy," who knows what he got injected with during the morning medical reanimation protocols? He is talking like he used to do to CornPop, that bad dude! Not sure why a natural disaster would cause him to think it is all about him and he doesn't want to be F'ed with. I'm guessing he is upset that OPEC+ decided to cut oil output even after he flew over to the 'royal' Saudis with cap in hand to beg them to produce more (at the same time claiming hydrocarbons bad and shut down our supply and curtail pipelines in N.America.) And they snubbed him, even after his supplications!
