Okay, I promise to make this my final post to this thread, but for some bizarre reason this sure has been fun.
However, I'm beginning to suspect that Arlyn has intentionally let us continue our little game, of which even I'm beginning to tire.
So, here's my final thought: Won't it be fun when Arlyn finally fixes his Bloopers Page and Newbies get stuck in an endless loop looking for the Blooper? Oh, ding dag nabit. I just spoiled it, didn't I? <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
Page 2? Oh, man. That's like Dad saying, "If I have to stop this car..."

I guess we'll never know whether Arlyn figured it out... until he does it again! <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle> Oh well, as the motto goes, "Racing, cruising, good times!" --occasionally at somebody's expense! <img src=icon_smile_blush.gif border=0 align=middle> Actually, we're just trying to get Arlyn promoted to Consultant--marine type, not grammatical type.
Over and out...

Wow... the opportunity to reload my double barreled scatter gun came along today with the post on the Trailer Sailor BBS by my friend Ben Allen.

I know I am a pretty big offender of spelling and homonym(homophone) abuse, (that sounds bad doesn't it), but Fhopper had the following blooper posted yesterday. Although similar, it might be a better Winch v Wench than the one posted on Arlyn's site. I added the elipses to remove extraneous information and found that it even reads a bit better (read more perverse) without a few phrases.
