There are some pretty cool, encouraging and caring people here. And for some reason they have reached out to me and befriended me.

Thank you!

What about the tin man what does that mean. Or is it the strawman.

Because I'm sure I've read some tinman arguments where the poster betrays a complete lack of compassion towards others as they have no heart. Rare for CC but there has been some shockers.

Taught me that "hyper grace" isn't about a one second prayer before meal time.

We also dropped the "u" out of neighbor. We have to remember to put it back in to search in KJV. View attachment 205320

My goodness no wonder I have such a difficult time spelling neighbor. In my mind I see the u in there somewhere but im just not sure where to put it. hahahahahaha

You would think that someone who was reading at a collegiate level in 5th grade would be a superb spellerer.

nope.

It's just american efficiency, we're eliminating the redundant letter.

And you also disregard some letters by not pronouncing them. Why do americans do that? Is it because of laziness disguised as efficiency? The the letter n and t are the most neglected, like in "center" "handbag" etc.

I’m here cause this world is crazy and it’s good to fellowship with like minded people. I’ve learned there are lots of caring encouraging folks here who will equip you with Bible verses and share Gods love. Nothing else truly matters but Jesus and thankful for the valuable input our Brothers and Sisters in Christ have contributed to this site. Love you all with the Love of the Lord!

Why I'd be tender, I'd be gentle
and awful sentimental
regarding love and art.
I'd be friends with all the sparrows,
and the boy who shoots the arrows
if I only had a heart.....

Hey now, don't y'all furriners go lumpin' all us americans in one heap now, y'hear?

I pronounce the t in center and the d in handbag, thank you. I know some who somewhat elide the d in handbag, but everybody I know pronounces "center" as it is spelled.

And we in the Sowth, where the aksint is the thickest. So if we can talk right with them there words, ev'body oughta be able to sho nuff.

Sorry I messed up. But you are still guilty of not only not pronouncing the "g" but dropping it altogether in lumpin'. It is not even a redundant letter. How dare you do that! I feel sorry for the letter "g".

I have not seen that many typos in a single post (of an erudite) :eek:

So divergents have found their way to CC world. I confess, I am a "dauntless" myself.

Those aren't typos those are dialect. Kind of like Robert Burns poems (only southern instead of Scottish)
