Query

The article says he died in nylon. I question strongly whether a man of such taste and refinement would wear polyester at any time, much less on his deathbed. Perhaps someone can double-check. EEng (talk) 22:46, 12 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

So he died with his boots on? EEng (talk) 08:24, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No, off ch (talk) 16:34, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm out of jokes on this one, sorry, so I'm calling in some backup -- martinevans123? EEng (talk) 16:56, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, fresh out of loo jokes. Martinevans123 (talk) 17:07, 13 July 2014 (UTC) ... but beware of those Chinese shus with bugs in! [reply]

I'm sure you don't mean to be racist, but using names in this way is getting pretty close, and if the shu fits....ch (talk) 18:30, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

... it's fine, I'm using very small text, lol, but in fact I'm being completely namist. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:59, 13 July 2014 (UTC) [reply]

For heaven's sake. It's no more racist than of someone was named Jones and I said something about jonesing for a fix. A pun's a pun. EEng (talk) 20:14, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unless it's a who-flung-pun, of course. Martinevans123 (talk) 20:56, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As I warned another editor some time ago, do not make fun of poofs! EEng (talk) 22:00, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

phones, not phobes, you booby! Martinevans123 (talk) 22:12, 13 July 2014 (UTC) [reply]

Of interest

Can you quietly send me a knowledgeable person on ancient relics of Chinese order? I’m afraid to reach out to normal authorities because I do not have faith in the use of the peoples faith in their wisest decisions anymore if ever I did. Not saying I’m mad just, would have speak to a source representative if possible. It’s a long story I’ll save for the person that shows up in front of me and I judge them honest and knowledgeable of these things. I know a lot about what is real about our histories and I was driven to discover something I think is very important feeling, driven by an obsession for a completely unrelated puzzle I am solving but my knowledge, humbly, of multiple dialects of multiple languages related here, and of contextual nuance assumed, I noticed on my path to solve this other riddle that my steps were revealing something quite greater than the puzzle I am working on. I feel like this is big enough that the powers who could find me by following this message would be the parties most interested in picking up these items I would like to see returned to their rightful owners. i have no desire to be compensated though if proved correct in my organic intuition linking me to this rather “led to” kinda discovery, that I might humbly be considered to be diplomat or teacher of the eastern way to the Americans if ever it comes to China having a hand in reforming the rather erroneous situation that prevails in these lands. I wish no one Ill in saying this but I believe I was created to serve the people of the world in Just and fair intelligence. My ancestors flow through me and guide me as I am as they were, many have urged me I feel, to make up for their actions regretted, that only the space of the great sleep could have revealed to them. this is my charge of theirs to make right all errors that divide us now. I speak for the Authority of Sargon of Aragon and with the knowledge stream of every ancestor I’ve known and traced with familial intuition of great strength and practiced accuracy. I can show a learned aid everything I have accounted for in the region I live now, and even what I feel is of great importance at the crater lake of Oregon. thank you for consideration and kindness, I look forward to someone who knows just what I am speaking of to find me kindly.
