 -> Well thanks Bob and John ...now I am stumped.

 Jo> You can get crutches for that...

Or false legs ....
 
 -> 
 ->   After being tagged a British Snob and whatever...

 Jo> It's the "whatever" that's most interesting. The phrase "British Snob"
 Jo> is a tautology, don't cha know... :-)

  Aaaah John you cheekie little ole Mountaineering BC'er on a bike ...
you know what I got for offering opinion ..hhahahahaa ... and besides
British covers a big area, which really show just how much they do not
know .... What country?    I am of Scot-Irish-English decent and
after all that, by country we get into the areas, and some of them
do not consider themselves British.    As for SNOB...well I am so
sorry I was in Scotland and England in school and we went to these
places, which was far more interesting, then reading about it...if
at all they even read or saw the stuff on display.

OOps end of the Red Green show .... now the man's prayer hahahahaha


 Jo> now I
 -> wonder if I am elitist John...

anyone like you who still is mentioned by surname and all....well you
are elite....   but look you have to come down from that mountain John
and quite this image I see of you, as almost some one of the biblical
tales.   I canna tae it mate...we need the answers.

 Jo> No doubt bout it whatsoever. The giveaway was writing correct English,
 Jo> and implying you might have read a book.

What is correct English?   Check out the dialects in rural England when
you make your world pilgrimage .... I could not even make out what a
few of them were saying, and as for spelling, they spell almost old
english...but then it is being taught in school there now.

In school in Scotland we spoke gaelic and celtic strains, and they
had a colourful name for me, being with a part english.  never figured
out what it meant.

I have a library in the home here, and I love books.   I've been
holed up since coming back, and not gone out at all...as I feel
washed out .... Jet lag ...mmmm..never knew it to last this long.


 Jo> , and my binary whatever is out the
 -> window so I am somewhere on Bob's 10 kinds of people.
 Jo> (Uh...you DO know that 10 is binary for two, eh?) 
 -> Can I enter your school?
 Jo> The school for elite snobs? Sorry, you show traces of being a mere
 Jo> commoner. 

Yes...I agree...  I told the Plantagnet decendent by the same name
that I was a commoner, and a pikeman, and happy and who cares
and I got a laugh...so I figured sire due to your high rank of
office, and I would not get in as a British Snob, unless I had
petigree papers  <woof woof> to back up to a line of Snobs.

Yes...a mere commoner sire .... a mere commoner.  <<<<sob sob>>>>

 Jo> Also the pre-requisite is passing hypocrisies 101 ...in which you are
 Jo> retrained in what you must think elitist means...:-)

 Jo> Whatta say Professor BOB and JOHN
 -> and only if I get a diploma from BOB and JOHN UNIVERSITY.
 Jo> uh...Bob sweeps the floors, I wash dishes in the cafeteria...
 
 -> << B&J or J&B U reads kinda nice....eh>>
 Jo> Hmmm. The University of Variable Liklihood? My church just might built
