Thank you Mr Patricius, effective summary is a gift I seek to use well.  :)

Well spoken Sir Brian.

I'm feeling kind of debunked myself. An Angry Orchard hard apple cider will take care of that. :) :)

very good point Sir Brian!

I also can't help but wonder if she's read anything on Queen Elizabeth, Joan of Arc, or Grace O'Malley, or even some of the first ladies that have inspired America in its past and present.  All of those ladies had strength, fortitude, and valor.  All of them personifying to me, at least, knightly chivalric virtues in some cases, based on their own merits.  Let alone the men that worshiped some of them.  I can't help but love the "romance" in Elizabeth: The Golden Age between QE, and Sir Francis Drake, played magnificently by Clive Owen.

Lord Dane, I'm more a cap'n and coke myself ;)

Sir NathanQ - well deserved good sir!

Oh look, it's Lord Dane revisiting the same joke in another board, not just thread, mind you, altogether!
What a surprise!

I'm full of surprises my son. :) lol The classics never get old (they just get more gray hair). Just kidding, it's the cider doing the typing. I'm on my 4th one.

ROFLMAO  ;D I'm new and don't know all the inside jokes at all, but I've been around a time or two in this and this ain't my first rodeo... I'm quite certain I have no desire to know what that turtle is used for!

This forum needs a "like" button option on threads!  I love those videos from Disneyworld.  There's just something disturbingly funny watching Darth Vader dance to MC Hammer and Michael Jackson!

it's nice to see a person did this and it's nice to see that someone posted it on "book of faces" too
honor and chivalry still exists
