You can either hit the "Quote" button on the upper right of the post to quote the whole post, or you can cut and paste, highlight the quote, and then hit the 'quote' button on the 'post a reply' page.

Or you can just pretend, like I do...

I was totally impressed by the fact that Lee, a virgin, travelled all the way from Scottland by himself for burning man. Not only that, he did it very well.

you know, I have a scottish customer here... whenever he comes into the store, I tell him that he could just talk to me for hours, and I would never become bored. I ADORE that accent.

*swoon*

50% of my co-workers are either from Ireland or Scottland. I find myself pronouncing certain words with an accent on occasion.

Hey, if someone could find that picture on the queen sitting among a group of bekilted men, the one next to her has his legs too far apart for a clear look up the kilt to see woodrow's cousin and all and post it here, I'd be really, really impressed.

Isn't Rod (mercifully) dead. I can see why he's your favorite, woodrow. . . Definately the name.

The Big Guy hates him, but I like his stuff, especially "Seasons in the Sun"... it's soooo moving, especially when sung by Terry Jacks...

One trick to learning the codes on this board is to hit the quote button on someone who's done what you'd like to learn and then see how he or she did it. That's how I eventually learned to link with a different word rather than the url--which at least saves me having to scroll all the way to the end of the bar.

If you have any fillings in your teeth you might not have any left after eating those things!

Seasons in the Sun is a genre unto itself. It is directly responcible for the creation of many cacaphonists who spend too much of thier childhoods trying to make sense out of it and end up with permanently bent brains.
