That's why I love guns net... because I don't know any people who shoot who are PC.. then again.. the people I hang around with who don't shoot aren't PC...

I think it's so dumb.... but I'm sure i'm preaching to the choir.

LMAO, it was m1911.com.

saltysquid, I realize this isn't the issue, but you did mean m1911.org right, not .com. When you do the former, it is just a catch all type site.
No big deal, just wanted to be sure I knew what you meant.

In an aside, if you write 1911.com and click it, it actually takes you to the AR15 forum. Can any of you computer people explain that one to me, as that just puzzled me.

I have to agree with the comments made about that site tho.

Retired, you are right. I messed up and wasn't thinking when I put .com there. I did not mean to give the wrong address and give the impression it was someone else. I know you caught it but someone else might nog have, I appreciate you bringing it to my attention.

The actual owner is in greece, but most mods and users are here in the US.

You know maybe I am wierd but I think crappy is a perfectly appropriate for any of my 6 little grandkids to use. I live in the bible belt and they use the word.

No biggie, just a fyi.

You should have just told them, "The remains of that crappy fart still stink."

Why they didn't just throw the crap overboard is beyond me ... but that's where I heard the word **** came from. Maybe this explanation is a bunch of crap but that's what I've been told.

You have part of the story...
The "crap" was dried dung, used for fertilizer. When it got wet, it produced methane gas, which could ignite and blow the vessel to kingdom come. Packages of dung were labeled "****", which meant "Store High In Transit", to prevent the dung from getting wet.

I'm a mod on a family friendly food forum where pretty much the only word banned is the F word. We change it or delete it in any used form, including WTF.

As to Santa, I did that professionally for 12 years. I would have quit if I'd been told no Ho-ho-ho'ing.

saltysquid · 11-18-2007, 07:33 PM

That's why I just don't get it, I have never thought of crappy as a bad word at all.

Poop.
