“Mister, you gotta lot o’ hard bark on you.” For de-filing my name in front of a lady, you shall feel the sting of my glove on your naked face. SA-LAP! (If you are in a duelling mood, let’s check the ‘duel’ post in GQ for procedure and legalities…) And, **Goo** , my dear, on these Boards when using one’s Overlord’s name in a sig it is proper to ‘bold’ it. Seriously, I humbly welcome you both to the SDMB’s. Enjoy! Steve ---

OK, thanks. Carry on. (But since I have to wait 60 seconds, I’ll tell you what I did. I just "Submit Reply"ed and then back-arrowed to get back to the “Your Reply” page. Instead of going back to the thread and re-clicking the little “Post Reply” spot.) (Sorry if that was too technical.) ---

Yeah, that’s about what I thought would happen. Now I know. I now return control of this thread back to whoever wants the control handed back to them. Of this thread. …waiting out the 60 second “Don’t Double Post” clock… ---
