Many of you don't know it, but for many years I worked very hard to build my skill as a knife customizer. My work drew the eye, finally, of the management of Imperial-Schrade. They hired me for a special job, and I went at it full-bore, working day and night, doing all the work by hand on a stock model Imperial-Schrade. It was a long, long labor of love... I did the filing work on the blade and backspring, and even engraved the bolsters. The bone was from a cow I personally picked out, then shot, then boiled the meat off the bones, until I found just the right section of front timor bone. At long last, my project was finished... I presented it to the Schrade people, and they were thrilled!!!! I was on top of the world... the most beautiful young women from Ellenville flocked to my workshop to meet me!

"We'll take this", said an Imperial Schrade exec, picking up my masterpiece. "We need to have the Blade engraved, this fine specimen here will become the pivotal item in a new collection we are presenting to the public."

Unfortunately, the regular blade engraver was off that day...

Hey Phil, whats up? My normal attitude is not what it used to be can you send me a bottle of whatever you were drinking when you wrote this thread. The most beautiful women in Ellenville??? OK I will leave that alone ( I live to close ). But, flocked to your workbench. man you must have found some Viagra for the mind. Get a little rest man. Wow I thought I went out on tangents you win. Advise offered with the best intentions your friend LT.
 
Phil,
Oh My! LT is right. Either your drinking a strange brew or they are growing some new herb in MI that you need to tell us about.
Thanks for the laugh on a rotten Monday, Oh ****, is it really Wednesday?

Phil,
Are you wearing your "Margarita Shirt" and juggling ping pong balls, or what? LMAO :D

What is a L M A O looks like an abreviation for a fat old dead Chinese Commy leader. Remember the Red Guard guy. They say he never took a bath and liked young girls. Dosen't make him a bad guy, any way I really think I could use some more computer training. My using a computer is like window washing by braile every time you find another spot to clean you leave another spot. LT
 
That means Laughing My A$$ Off. In computer code.

However I guess it could be a Maoist code of some kind and a mindaltering attempt to throw the Gaijin off his feed, as it were. Only someone as computer savvy as you LT, could have ever figured that out. Well done!!!!!

Hey Phil, how come you haven't bid on that gem? That is obviously a Mao Emperial Dynasty piece.Must be one of a kind, for sure.

Oh yeah, Phil, show us the "Nice" elk handled knife.......please. Everyone will like it.

As lrv would say.....TTYL.

Guess that one, LT.

Bill
 
LT... LMAO = Laughing My Ass Off.

Thanks for the advice. Must sleep now. Head hurt. Dream Of Lost Glory and Beautiful Ellenville Maidens.

AH...........NO!!!!!!!
What is it with Mao, Ellenville, and young stu.......er, girls?

Better go for the life line (lrv) :D

Ellenville maidens amazing, happy landings Phil the way down is quicker than the way up. LT PS I R Kane tell youse is spoofen me Woofman that were no commy thang. That is Mayberry festus computer Jargon. Who says I ain't hip. Wait a minute is hip still hip to say. This is to confusing who started this Shite. ( a minority tribe in the arabic nations ). Not to be confused with a natural waste product which cannot be used in the vernacular on computers because it is only for adults to say when they are angry and is a bad word which can only be spelled on computers with dots and stars and dollar signs and Sh-- whatever stuff like that.
 
LT,
You cetainly have a way with words.

I can't tell you how much fun it is to post here.

INCOMING.

Bill
 
I love LT's interpertations of computer acronyms...
Back in the good old days when BBS's (Bulletin Board Systems) charged by the connection minute, us cheapies tried to reduce the connection time by abbreviating as much possible besides we could never spell well. So we came up with acronyms and lots of shortcuts. "U R" and "R U" being an example.
Once the BBS's were replaced by the internet and monthly fees were used, it became more fun to use them as a status symbol.. There are hundreds of acronym sites that explain it all.

TTYL is but for this board, "Talk To You (Ya, Yall) Later".
LMAO is part of the expression below.
ROTFLMAO.. Rolling On The Floor Laughing My A$$ Off.

Until I tried to use a semi adult word like **** I did not know we had a filter.

I'll use some attempts to get the word S. H. I. T. through. Its my favorite expression and you all have seen the mail showing how it and the famous F word can be used to describe just about any situation including the closing of our favorite company.

Enough computer history for today.
Merde,Scheiße,merda,mierda. Can any of these be used?

TTYL
lrv..
P.S.
Hip was replaced by cool in the 60's and awesome in the 70's. which in N.E. is now "wicked" or "wicked awesome".
 
I wonder if celluloid fumes can affect your mind after years of using it for knife handles or playing ping pong, like there are "mad hatters" there may be "mad knife makers" and "mad ping pong players".

I just noticed that my link to Acronym Finder has disappeared from the right button menu, probably erased by SPYBOT, computers are getting more complicated all the time.

There is a simple trick to get through the **** filter, using character format tags inside the word can fool the filter but won´t affect the look of the characters, it´s explained in some thread somewhere, Whine and Cheese maybe. Of course you can get around it by coursing in Spanish (or French, German, Portuguese, etc.).

I spent some time in Red China during Mao´s time, about 20 days in 1972, there wasn´t much to laugh about and the Chinese guys just didn´t get our jokes, then we met a group of Cubans in Shanghai and spent a couple of evenings telling dirty jokes, Cubans and Mexicans laughing while the Chinese guides sat down with a surprised look thinking we were crazy.

Hip, then cool, then awesome, then wicked, that´s groovy...

Please, guys, always remember to LOG OUT OF THE SITE when you are done visiting. You just never know who might slip into your home as you sleep (dreaming of those lovely Ellenville Maidens) and get here to this site AND MAKE AN OUTRAGEOUS POST IN YOUR NAME!

More seriously... Bill thought I ought to share something with you. A few months ago, I was surfing the forum here and noted a thread. I answered it, as I had a beautiful old spike horn Elk rack (each of the single tines two feet long) that I'd found somewhere in my travels.

Elk antler

The knifemaker wanted to pay me.. no dice, said I. It's yours. This little elk never should had been shot in the first place. Let's make him live forever as a work of working art.

The other day he sent me a photo. Here is another from his website. Two actually, one showing the construction, the other the finished product.

Thanks for sharing the story, Phil. It is a great knife.

By the way, it was a d.a.m.n. (thanks lrv) shame that not one person bid on that very collectable heartbeak.....er, heartbrake, was it? No, no,
" heartbeark" of yours. :(

Certainly the reserve wasn't too tall for a once in a lifetime example of your work?

Maybe next time around. He probably just needs one of those "Ellenville Hotties" to model with it. :D

Adios.
