I didn’t want to include your name, dear.

I must say, though PUNS are not worthy of being the highest humor!

:o

No offense taken, honest! Truth is, I was reading along, reading along, and got all the way to the punch line before I realized that I knew that story a little too well!

How **NurseCarmen’s** post in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=425276) (The apartment renter’s greed is killing me) was overlooked by having no one reply to it should be a crime. (See post #45)

Thread: “Where did blacksmiths of yore get new iron?”  
[/QUOTE]

Ah yes. In similar vein, a Great Debate that had wandered off into a discussion of the historicity of the Book of Daniel, and whether references to Darius the Mede should have been Cyrus the Persian (or vice versâ), produced this gem:

“One man’s Mede is another man’s Persian”.

I’ll forever hold **Sampiro** as dear to my heart, just for the epic thread about his mother and sister.

I guess we differ, because I think **Vinyl Turnip** is a riot AND a tool. That is what I like about him/her.

Oh, I like Cervaise and 'luci and others of their ilk but sometimes the best ones just come along by surprise from unexpected sources. Personally, it always makes my day when something I didn’t even think too hard about makes someone snort beverages out their nose.

[This little bit of imaginary dialogue](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=9137510&postcount=66) posted by \*\*Cervaise \*\* in one of the recent “Yet another anti-gay Republican gets outed” threads made me laugh until I hurt.
