What is CAPEING?

Old Knife Guy; actually VG has a few (very few) redeeming characteristics. He was a fireman / EMT; his former handle on BFC was 'Fireprez,' IIRC.

As far as tatoos go, I think that it is a changing social thing. As an ER doc, I always was very cautious around people with tatoos, prison tatoos or gang tatoos especially. Now, however, it seems to be an acceptable thing. I will point out, however, that many dermatologists make a lot of money removing tatoos with YAG lasers.

Colobbfan, would it be possible to finder a LONGER link next time?

Doctor Walt, I oughta hire you as my publicist! Would you be willing to work for scaps of food and small pieces of string? The last 87 publicists I had thought I was cheap, but I refrain from speaking badly about them, as it is bad form to criticize the dead.

OKG, the above reference was a JOKE, ok?

One thing Doctor Walt forgot to mention is that while I DO live in Nevada, the town I live in is on the CA border. It just takes me about 10 minutes, and I get my dose of repression!

Anyways, since ya don't know me, OKG, lemme tell you that the Vampire thing is NOT a lifestyle choice... I don't have a blood fetish or anything... the name's purely meant to be a goofy visual.
IF anyone takes my pictures as representative of the knife community as a whole, THE ENTIRE PLANET IS DOOMED DUE TO STUPIDITY!
(Wow! Did ya hear that echo?)

Off to make friends elsewhere.... perhaps at the local Klan rally....I shall shout "KILL WHITEY" until my lungs pop,
I remain,
VG

Kurt Vonnegut once wrote (in his novel Galapagos) that consciousness was an evolutionary accident which will soon be corrected. I think he was on (to) something.

To: Vampire Gerbil: Yes, I knew everyone was joking, and underneath all of this strap steel muscle beats the faint heart of a man who was misunderstood! (Haven't you read my other posts? I usually kid about everything, it's one of the things I like about the forums!) I like to read all types of things here, and it usually breaks down into two classifications. First off, there are threads like "How do you get gravy stains out of AUS-8A?" I read those articles for the information. But my favorite posts read something like, "Wharncliffes--great for scratching those pesky goiters and hemorroids." Strangely, the guys that answer THOSE posts are the gang of usual suspects...--OKG
 
Old Knife Guy; you are right; I am a frequent offender in answering the same question for the fiftieth time. I assure you it is not to get my post number up, or to keep Tim Herman from having a tissy fit on Whine and Cheese about the latest stupid post(he will anyway).

It is that I always recall that a very few years ago, I was a rookie, and really asked some dumb questions, and performed in a generally callow manner.

I recall that I used to post without separating the paragraphs, just one long string of sentences. It was because that is the way hand written medical charts are done in the ER (you don't have enough space to do any spacing or separation). Spark posted that it would be nice if I did separate the paragraphs, and my posts would be much easier to read with just a few touches of the 'return' key. I posted that I appreciated Spark's advice, explained the source of my habit of not punctuating, and asked sincerely if there were anything else I was doing wrong. Spark thought I was being sarcastic, but I set him straight. I will admit to having developed a slight

sense of sarcasm since that time.

Walt, Esteemed Colleague, Fellow Sufferer:

My sincere apologies and condolences. I regret that I must inform you that you have developed a raging and probably terminal case of sarcasm. And you have even begun to display the first signs of wit. Ironic that a healer would be doomed to suffer from an uncontrollable urge to have at least one good sarcasm everyday. I prefer first thing in the morning with my wife or any another suitable object of ire. During the day I managed to sneak in a few more sarcasms when the oppurtunity presents itself. Sometimes I manage to have a few more while I hang out here at BFC in the evenings.

You must get treatment quickly Walt. I fear you have developed a clearly defined and well punctuated affect. I can't prescribe anything other than suggest the Socratic Treatment, but perhaps you don't need that yet.

So, are there anymore contributions to the thread or was the first response to my legitimate question correct & succinct?

Well, Jeff was close but Walt's reply was the more correct one.

I get some pleasure from finding a relentlessly peaceful use for a combative looking knife.
