I don't claim to be. But I don't deny errors like Rick - who apparently believes I need to get out more to see his errors as normal.
Your posture makes the claim for you.
I denied error?
Sounds "novel" to me.;):cool:

Indeed. You said I should get out more and then I'd see it as normal.

It's funny that when StandingUp left for a while, so did you. He returns, then you do too. Twins?
Paranoia.
So point out the error.:cool:

Paranoia.
That's projection. I made no statements other than what I'd observed.
So point out the error.

The error is in punctuation. I already mentioned this. Maybe I should have actually explicitly pointed this out, but I didn't because I was keeping this 'light'.

But, obviously it seems this must now develop to one of giving you a lesson

"my X-Catholic. Post-Protestant opinion."

"I'm AM glad they're not using heretics to create the smoke, "

The use of a comma at the end of a sentence. The use of a full-stop mid-sentence.

Easily impressed!
First smell the coffee & you'll smell the roses even better.

Sorry, not interested in accomodating your punctuation requirements so much.
Might want to put me on your ignore list.

To the virgins of the world - thanks for nothing

I'm sure the death row criminals, who got their sentences commuted if they were lucky enough to meet a Vestal on their way to their executions, disagree with you. :D


Oh and lol. :D

I forgot about that right. I think druids were virgins (or at least celibate) and they could stop battles.

LXXXIII. TO VESTA

The Fumigation from Aromatics.

Daughter of Saturn, venerable dame, the seat containing of unweary'd flame;
In sacred rites these ministers are thine, Mystics much-blessed, holy and divine
In thee, the Gods have fix'd place, strong, stable, basis of the mortal race:
Eternal, much-form'd ever-florid queen, laughing and blessed, and of lovely mien;
Accept these rites, accord each just desire, and gentle health, and needful good inspire.








Vesta is mentioned in an Orphic hymn. Therefore, all fire must be evil.
