... "It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt."--unknown

And I'm living proof of that one!

Quote is not unknown at all. Its by Mark Twain.

By the way - its also very appropriate. I wonder if it can be translated to the language spoken in Koala Lampur.

Normah.....did you mean Carl "Zinfella" Stone?

He's trolling from woodnet.

[Joe Marshall]

Where are you trolling from NOR_MUH?

[Dennis Peacock]

OK....let's go "easy" here folks. There's been plenty said about trolling. Let's get back to more normal things in life and woodworking. That's what this is all about any way.

Hey CJ Conrad!
I like the quote you posted...

"It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt."--unknown

I have just begun opening my mouth here and I wish I had read that advice sooner!

Other words also come to mind:

"It is better not to begin, but if you begin it is better to finish."

I thought we were going to keep my multiple personalities between ourselves here?

I have never read the "rules" of SMC. I guess I better do that. Okay back from reading the rules. Stepford Wives? (Wait while I go look that one up)...Okay I am back. Nope, I don't think that SMC requires people to be perfect to post. My wife will assure that I am far from perfect, and I still post here. Try to do the best I can, and use common sense when I post. Although I have not done a formal intro yet. I am meaning to do that.

I just have to ask this though. Why is it an issue if someone just wants to "lurk", reading the posts and such? And I am not a "contributing member" in the sense I have not donated any money yet. I will. But it really shouldn't matter if someone wants to "just hang out" and enjoy the friendly banter and occassional tool talk that goes on here. I like this place very much. I like the people, especially the ones who like to try their hand at comedy. That's been a little lacking lately though. I have visited various woodworking forums, and this is the most civil, knowledgeable one out there. Thanks Guys.

See----I put up a post and the truth of my words (or that Twain guy's words) is immediately proven true!
