I guess you can gift gifts if you want. I won’t be party to such nonsense. The ultimate though is this particular gem that has been offending my ears with alarming frequency lately: dethaw. What!?

Capestick? I was a big fan of Skeeter Skelton. I had a conversation with Bill Jordan once. We both thought that Skeeter Skelton could have written the proverbial great American novel.
“ Touch Base” Excuse me but I don’t want your base to touch mine, I gifted it to you so you can have your own.
Don't ask me how I know this. I just do. But this seems relevant here. It has to do with the flatness of Earth, and the fact that it's not level. Or something ... This guy looks so familiar from this forum. Who is he?
At around 2 today I tried to reach out to a friend, just to touch base, whilst sharpening my knifes and listening to Nickleback. Flexx gifted the music to me, but that is irregardless to this post, and I’m sure you could care less.
