Or those of us that are and try to Deny it!

Some of you seem to deny the majority of their ancestry.

I was very careful in my use of "British"

I tend to use 'Briton' when I mean the old Celtic types. At least on this side of the pond, 'British' invokes visions of Union Jacks and Spitfires......

Hey, I know who the Britons are! They had a king named Arthur!

Know anyone like that?

So how did your 1st day go? Make any new friends? Did you play nice with the other kids?

Very well. Everyone is very nice and helpful. I'm hoping to learn the ropes pretty quick. Having said that, I dont even have a workstation yet. Nor have I actually gotten to play with the software.

mini onime blast over bobo out.

Wouldnt it, technically, be a Bobo blast?

He's honoring you as the inventor of the blast! Of course Onime isn't as easy to say as Faber. So we call it a blast rather than "an Onime".

I feel honored.

All you have to do is punch the biggest, toughest person in the place right in the face . . . . is this an office or prison? Different rules may apply.

The only difference between an office and a prison is that prisoners get more privacy!

Do you think that they want to be named after some Italian map maker who never even visited the country? Native American? BAH! I'm sure they'd rather be known by their tribe , or failing that , if you've got to use some "political feel good term" , How about "Indigenous Aborigines" or something?
