Never mind, Steve....and Webb....

Unfortunately, it sometimes happens. Don't give up.... ;) ..!

It encouraged me to Google "Magna Carta" again....and refresh my memory again from my School Days!

Hahahaha. Yeah. You mad.

Now, we've been over this before, but in light of your early onset dementia, I'll repeat myself, seeing as you're too senile to remember:

I eat gruff old billy goats. If you think that makes me a troll, so be it. Being one who deals in reciprocity, that's exactly what I think of you and that wrinkly old proto-fascist Webb. I'll add that if you took the attitude with me in person that you've taken here, your discount dentures would get knocked out of your mouth so hard you wouldn't get them to go back in correctly. True story. Why don't you cry about that one for a while, grandpa, after you get thru grieving that you're an ex-pat to a place that doesn't exist anymore and no one but you and your White Citizens Council cohorts are sad to see it go, and before you start grieving about the 8 years of HRC as POTUS you have to look forward to.

There's your troll, bitch.


Now if you'll excuse me, I got a bridge to attend to.

I appreciate it. I would've let the anniversary slip right by unnoticed. I won't be going to London to see the copies on display, but maybe they'll bring them here sometime and let them tour. They used to have Wonders of the World Exhibits in Memphis, TN. I saw Ramases II, China, the Etruscans, Napolean, the Titanic, and Catherine the Great. I don't know why they stopped doing them there. Now to see anything good like that we have to go all the way to Chicago or Charlotte.

..........don't feed the ......doh, too late.


A lost copy of the Magna Carta was found a little while ago. It was stashed in a local authority archive......Worth about 10 million they reckon.
