Help me, aha. Capitalization problem: If I begin a sentence with your name, should I capitalize the first a? I don’t want to get left out of the $100 a plate “Get to Know Ed and Jerry” fundraiser on a technicality. Eagerly awaiting clarification.

No, wait! I’ve finally figgered it out!

aha - nickname of **Ahasuerus** , either of two kings of the Medes and Persians, especially the one (often identified as Xerxes I) who was married to Esther - (Ezra 4:6).

E-I-E-I-O

No sir! you should not capitolize it!!! And I would appreciate you not confusing me with the fucking facts ok? I have spent most of my life doing things half-assed. I am not going to start doing them correctly now.

I chose aha cause any sub specie monkey with a double row of teeth, tripping on LSD with a tuning fork stuck up his ass vibrating in C# could type it without looking and in a nano second.

Read my lips: No caps pauses dashes hypens nuttin at the beginning end or in the middle.

Simplicity is bless,and as you grow older and learn the ways of the world these things will come natural to you.

Now if you want to be on the porch with the big dogs like me, Ed and Jerry, don’t ask anymore infantile questions just follow my lead.  
All in all however not a bad question as\_u\_wish. 🙂

Sorry to keep bumping up this thread myself but Unclebeer’s post came in at the same time I was answering as\_u\_wishes…anyway to damn bad, you don’t like it? Talk to either of my pals Ed or Jerry. _smirk_

Unclebeer:

Esther ehhhh?? (rubbing chin} I barely remember her…flight attendent right? (squinting eyes) did she bring up my name? Surely she didn’t dredge up that tired old story of her having my baby some years ago did she?

I may just have to take out a restraining order on her.

My balogna has a first name,  
It’s O-S-C-A-R,  
My balogna has last name,  
It’s M-A-Y-E-R  
It’s Oscar Mayer,  
B-O-L-O-G-N-A!

I’m sorry aha, I’m not really trying to poke fun at you. I just can’t stop posting this shit; I think I’ve lost my tiny little mind.

I believe the Smithsonian-approved ORIGINAL version goes:

My bologna has a first name  
It’s O-S-C-A-R  
My bologna has a second name  
It’s M-A-Y-E-R  
Oh, I love to eat it every day  
And if you ask me why, I’ll saaaaaaaaaaay . . .  
That Oscar Mayer  
Has a Way  
With B-O-L-O-G-N-A.

Pass the mustard.

Sorry, Alphagene, we did get a bit touchy-feely there for a moment — now I’ll do it the right way.

(Pulls out soapbox and clambers onto it. Raises fist in the air.)

GODDAM IT! It there’s anything – ANYTHING that pisses me off, it’s when they get that bologna song wrong. We all musta heard it MILLIONS of times on TV! I mean, if we can’t get the bologna song right, then what does that say of the our collective American conscience? Next thing you know, it will be the Oscar Mayer WIENER song that somebody futzes up! Umm – how does that go -----

I know! I know!!! Call on me!!!

I’m glad that you’re an Oscar Mayer Wiener–  
Sickly brown and made of chopped up pork.  
Cuz now no one will even raise an eyebrow  
When I boil you and prick you with a fork.

Or something like that.

No, more like this:

OH, I wish I was a Michael Jackson wiener  
That is what I’d really want to be  
'Cause if I was a Michael Jackson wiener  
On the air would pictures of me beeeeeeeee . . . .

Thank you, thank you. Bosco songs coming.

You know, aha implying that my posts need improvement is like William Conrad telling me I need to lose weight.

You should stick to posting [poop](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=9141) threads.
