:D:D:D In this thread you have called me "mister" and "comrade."
Too, too funny!
You want me to expand on what I said...okay.
I said "no."
I asked you to expound, not expand. Im sure you know the difference.
You have called me much worse then Ma'am, or enemy.
BTW,
Originated from....Quote:
Trust, but Verify
I guess its fitting for you to "quote" a communist party member.Quote:
Доверие, но проверяй.
All right...you want it you get it.Quote:

Look it up.
I quoted Ronald Reagan. Not sure when he became a communist. Oh yeah...here's the link....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trust,_but_Verify
You are quoting, I think...I do not read Russian...an old Russian saying. So did Ronald. Good enough for Ronnie...good enough for me.
Russian does not equal communist.
Now...go sleep it off.
