OMG now I will hear all Hans's posts as if read in my head by a fat guy with a nervous, girly voice. Talk about ruining Languish.  :mad:

Substitute Dick Cheney's voice. That should work.
It won't be the same. Once I hear their real voice, the magic of substitution is gone. It would be the same if, say, I heard CdM talking and found out he doesn't really sound like Duffy Duck.

I've heard CdM's voice.  It doesn't sound anything like daffy duck.

Of course I've also heard your voice... :shifty:

You accepted it, but then you didn't the second time, after I de-friended you.

That would be the long version, yes. :hug:

True. I'd say it's closer to Tony Soprano. If he was Irish.

First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I just gave an one hour speech on short notice yesterday.  Due to lack of preparation it wasn't quite as smooth as I had hoped, but here is the video.

You look like a Republican
"there's a long tradition of insulting people we disagree with here, and I'll be damned if I listen to your entreaties otherwise."-OVB

"Obviously not a Berkut-commanded armored column.  They're not all brewing."- CdM

"We've reached one of our phase lines after the firefight and it smells bad—meaning it's a little bit suspicious... Could be an amb—".

Sadly, no.

The whole thing was a little too rushed for my taste.  It was a last minute invitation and I had been kicking some things around in my head with not nearly enough time to organize it well.  I had far too much information to fit into the alloted time and had to leave far too much out of it and several points were severely shortened or dropped in its entirety.  Particularly, i wanted to talk about the broken procurement system and the new BfSB.

You look good. :) For a Republican, that is. :D
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

What kind of audience did you deliver the speech to?  Old guys, college Republicans, or what?

A mostly older audience.  Some members of the state legislature, some judges, several university professors, some political lobbyists, and a couple of retired people.
