I know there are a lot of people at RHP who despise me for what I believe in and stand for, and I retract not one inch from my standpoint(s), however, I want to wish all those who I may have offended with my brusque way of responding to certain posts an apology and a Merry Christmas or a Happy whatever you believe in, whether God or Science. I will probably offend you in the future, and like wise, you will probably offend me, but that's what make dialouge here at RHP so interesting and not for the "faint of heart". It's what makes me head for the computer the minute after I kiss my wife from returning from a long day at school, ready to do battle from my standpoint. Anyway, I'm looking for blood and tears in the coming New Year, but for today, as the German and British soldiers sang "Silent Night" in the trenches of WW1, I bid all a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year....Chancre-fixer-upper

You see, we all know that deep down you really are a wee socialist at heart.

Have a good one!

You know sometimes we agree and sometimes we disagree, but you are definately one of those I'd sit down and have a beer with (and I'd pay for mine, and leave a tip (i know how much that bothers you)) - I hope you too have a good Xmas and a horribly drunken New Year!
I'll look forward to some 'vigourous' debates over the next 12 months,

Originally posted by scottishinnzHey, I appreciate that. I'm half Scots by the way. I went to Scotland while in the Navy thnking that I was Irish, but I met a guy that convinced me that my name was Scottish; he even showed me my family's Tarten (kilt colors?) I did some further research, and determined that my family DID emigrate from Ireland to the U.S. in the early 1800s, maybe some even came with James Oglethorpe, the founder of Georgia, in the 1700s as white-trash and criminals. My "Irish" immigrants were in fact Scottish immigrants by way of Ireland....The first three letters of my last name was once MAC but is now McC....do you agree that it is Scottish in origin?

By the way, I'm a damn good tipper....10-25%...depending on service; where did you ever think that I wasn't?

Merry Christmas 😉
Originally posted by Remora91Well, let's not put it in that context...😛...I am a medic, and one of my main jobs is treating folks who come to me in private stating "Doc, my pee-pee is dripping non-stop pus, and it burns when I pee, and there's thus ugly painless "scab" (chancre) on my foreskin (or vulva, if female)....pleeeeeze, help me! So, I take a culture of said "drip" and take some blood from the person with the chancre case and either microscopically or serologically determine if they are indeed infected with an STD. Chancer mechanic is like "car-mechanic'...I fix chancres, or better, make them go away with medicines, so I am a chancremechanic...is that more understandable? By the way, if you are unaware of the hows and whys people get STDs, and before you get seriously intimate with another person, you would be wise to get educated because there are a myriad of nasty critters out there, some of them deadly....
You named yourself after an STD? 😕
Originally posted by geniusTrue, but my surname is all that I have left as evidence of Scotland....I could have any ethnicity in my genes...
to be fair, having family who emigrated from Scotland 200 years ago doesn't quite make you half Scottish...😛
and yeah, every clan (family group) has a tartan, and kilts are made out of these tartans.
