You're right, I am doing a lot of assuming. But if Ace would express himself clearly to start with, or clarify what he means after the fact, then I wouldn't have to. I still don't know what he means by "firing his sweet trigger". I'm not trying to be a jerk, but when words in a forum are the only way we have to get to know or understand someone, then we need to be clear. Having to figure out what someone means (in any venue) makes me uneasy, which in turn would make me nervous if I would have to trust and have confidence in him as a partner. Forum members give Chuck good-natured (I think) grief about being the spelling-nazi, but perfect spelling in a forum such as this is really of little importance as long as the idea is understood.

You asked me why that would make me nervous and I tried to give a complete, thorough answer. And be honest, if you had a partner who had some of the characteristics I previously described (and I agree that I'm wrong to imply Ace has any of those characteristics), wouldn't that make you a little nervous?

And looking back to my original post on this subject, I probably should have just asked Ace for clarification and kept my editorial comment to myself. But that would hardly have been in the spirit of this forum, would it?

Corndog,

Lighten up man. Whatever he calls it, we all have a right to take some light points of view of this or any number of things. Who cares what he calls it?

Peace

Nazi? I'm your friendly neighborhood Mr. Spelling Guy. "Guy", not "nazi". You're confusing me with the Seinfeld character. If you combined us, though, you'd have the Spelling Soup Nazi. I would be supreme arbiter over every bowl of Campbell's Alphabet Soup!! Five-year-olds everywhere would fear me!!! "Kat?!? No Alphabet Soup for you!! Come back, one year!!"

Unfortunately, you've been caught on tape:


Isn't that you on the far end?

I always thought he was a Republican.

Aamof I thought that he originally posed for the Republican elephant symbol; well, the trunk part anyway.
