An apology to Fish_Whisperer

[ItsBruce]

Since it's (a) Friday afternoon; and (b) this thread has already been hijacked; and (c) I was so bored -- err, ahead of my work schedule -- that I read the whole thing; then I'll chime in that tequila is the only liquor which takes much longer to grow the original plant (agave cactus isn't ready for 8-10 years) than it does to age the booze itself (the oldest tequila you'll ever need is no more than two or three years old).

I'd also like to claim today's prize for longest, run-on sentence.

Somehow this managed to score a 73.3 on the Flesch Readability Test. I have to work on a sentence for 0.15 to 0.20 hours just to get it over 60 and I can't come close to saying that much. (Recall higher means more readable.) I'm impressed. If you're ever in the neighborhood, I'll buy the fiirst round.

Or, you can separate the two independent clauses with a comma, provided there is a conjuction.

yawhol!

properly known as a coordinating conjuction, of which there are seven
(count them, seven) in the English langauge.

can you name all seven?

Excuse me, is this the fish bashing thread?

...If you're ever in the neighborhood, I'll buy the fiirst round.

I can arrange to be in your neighborhood, considering that (a) if I conned you into buying the first round, I should be able to con you into buying the second round; and (b) you're buying.

If you identify this as a circular argument, then you also owe me a round.

Excuse me, is this the fish bashing thread?

No, dude, the Fish_Whisperer-bashing thread line is on the left. No sweat, though. Also, no parking validation. Sorry.

No, but I can (a) spell "conjunction" (which error has rippled through this thread); and (b) name the three ages of tequila.

I've been gone, but I clearly haven't missed a thing
