Got wood?

[Roy]

I brought up the Royal Navy because ship masts required the same old growth type wood used in cathedral beams. An interesting aside is that, prior to the Revolution, the British were not only buying our timber, but our finished ships, as well. Some of our naval architects and ship builders were that good.

Again, there's nothing wrong with American labor. Just look at the kinds of things done by the members of this forum. None of us can afford to live on a bag of leaves and bugs, and the occasional pat on the head, like our future automotive worker here:



He'll supervise all the robots building the cars. He might also put his autograph on the dash, to give the car that craftslemur-built cachet.

I always wondered why we felt we had - or had the right - to do that to such a tree.

Well we do cut them down and use them for construction. I thought we just went through this about France using up all the old growth oak that was used in the construction of Notre Dame.....

And? So? Your point is?

Does mean you slipped and fell, face first, into an open can of green paint, and that, furthermore, you are amused by this happenstance?

Oh. I thought it meant you enjoyed good pot.

If you're referring to holding your breath, wouldn't the emoticon be blue?

On MTJ the is shown as Mr Green. On other forums it is listed as a big grin.

I use the Mr Green icon as a tongue in cheek big grin. As in just having fun, Not really serious.

It can also be used as a sarcasm identifier.

That's how I use it.

So, using sarcasm turns your face green, and gives you a shit-eating grin. This is news, to me.

This emoji is holding his breath, as if to absorb THC into his blood, while gesturing that someone, or something, is crazy. Even I can see that.

Holding his breath to avoid breathing toxic fumes............

Right. Essentially, an individual intaking insufficient oxygen, for whatever reason. This is a meme I can deal with. Someone, please take Mr. Green out back, and blast his green head clean off, with a .44 Magnum.

Somebody has an infatuation with the .44 Magnum.

You're thinking “did he fire six shots or only five?” Now to tell you the truth I forgot myself in all this excitement. But being this is a.44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world and will blow you head clean off, you've gotta ask yourself a question: “Do I feel lucky?” Well, do ya, punk?

What's not to like, about having your head blasted clean off while you're doing a favorite building task on a train, watching a good movie, or reading something interesting? Here one moment, then gone. No time for fear, worry, pain, or distress. I know that there are other good ways to go, too. I can't tell you how many people and animals I wish could've had better life endings.
