You spray plthijinx, I'll cover you with the Vigilante.

Sidenote: Do you think Robert Craig Johnson voted for Dubya?

Look another FARC.

"Rebels of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, are fighting for control of Catatumbo against the army, another rebel group and outlawed paramilitary fighters."--From above CNN.com story.

How did they get FARC out of Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia? Shouldn't it be RAFC

My Spanish is fairly rusty, but I'll be willing to wager a guess that they pulled FARC from the order the words follow in Spanish.

Because it stands for

Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia

(As a side note, this is how you make yourself vulnerable to being the Cellar punching bag: by showing your ignorance of many subjects while posting like an authority on others. When you don't treat others with respect, and they have an opportunity to make you look like an idiot, they generally will take it. And so it is, because your knowledge of Spanish is obviously extremely poor or non-existant, you ask a question and show yourself to be vulnerable. Perhaps if you weren't so condescending when someone disagrees with you, you might get a warmer reception. In other words, what goes around comes around.)

Thanks Dave, my googling is somewhat inhibited by incoming phone calls today.

Well, that was more a translation of the English into Spanish by the trusty My Brain 1.0. (My Spanish is not as rusty as yours, apparently.)

I haven't used mine (Spanish, not Brain) in forever, and I'm about armpit deep in transaction standards right now, so I'm fluent in HIPAA, not Spanish. (And I'll let you guess which one I'm preferring at the moment!)

Anyway....I knew I was on the right track, even if I was a mile away from Home base

Thanks Dave, now that wasn't an unusually cruel post now was it? What the fuck did I ever do to you? Now a simple innocuous question turns into "Let's Fuck Over BUGZ Hour". I never said I know everything there is to know about everything, why else would I ask such a fucking stupid question that is so obvious to someone of your superior intellect? I took 2 years of Spanish in high school and 2 more years in college and have never had the opportunity to use it in a daily conversation to keep up with it. It never occurred to me and my simpleton mind that the acronym stood for something in Spanish. At least DagNEY, who readily admits she hates me (which I can fully accept, and still respect her for because she at least has the balls to come right out and say it) didn't post a fucked up post like you did. What's your problem, dude?

Again, let's try and read clearly. Shall I cut and paste, or are you able to find where I said what I said?

I never stated I HATE you. I said I don't LIKE you.

Let's do a comparison.

Hate - wish you'd fall under a bus and get crushed.

Don't like - Would rather not waste my time dealing with you.

Nope, I never said I hate you. I hate only one person on the face of the earth, and I'm sorry to burst your precious little bubble, unless you're my father, younger, more female, and on the other side of the country, it's not you.

But you are pushing your luck. You'll be MUCH better off if you simply don't mention my name.

Dagney
