Hrmm...does he cache? Twisted Evil

No, Splash, it's not you. This was a guy from Minnesota who I worked with at an Order of the Arrow service project in Grand Marais, MN. There were three of us doing the cooking for 150 people, so I was with him about 16 hours a day. Nice guy, but that phrase really got on my nerves.

The reality is he may cache then again, the reality is he may not cache Laughing

I could post a zinger here, but it is the Holiday season, so I'll be nice. Merry Christmas, David.

Now that you mention it, I will be glad when Friday arrives so that we don't have to hear about the world ending any more. One way or the other.

Just adding a couple of my pet peeves ...

Using "on accident" instead of "by accident"

Using "I seen ..." instead of "I saw" or "I have seen"

Where I work every day is treated like a double negative celebration...I have a hard time believing people actually graduated from high school...

"...there aint nuthin' there..."

-Really? So if there aint nuthin there what is there?

Whatever.

Oooo... that one trips my trigger. To me that means "What you just said makes perfect sense and I have no reasonable reason to disagree, but I refuse to agree with you so... Whatever."
