Alan,

Actually, Newt is a Reb!.

Alan - over here (and left over from our civil war)

 

Yank = Yankee = anyone who lives in the Northern section of the US (above a line called the Mason-Dixon Line that pretty much extends from just above Virginia to the west).

 

Reb = Rebel = Southerner ('cause those idiots up north think we were just rebelling rather than trying to start ourselves a nice, new, proper country).

 

And if it helps, the proper term in my part of the country (the South) is "The War of Northern Aggression" rather than "The American Civil War".

Yankees 1 Rebels 0

 

Truth is most Rebs think it is just half-time:D

I`m proud to be a YANK, and don`t find it in the least offensive...

 

That`s funny, in my part, of course it`s still halftime...

 

REBS find it unconfortable that we also take the aggressive role when provoked...>LMAO

History we may have, my diplomatic friend, but there's a fair chance that it would have changed drastically around the mid-1940's, had our U.S. allies not given their lives to help us in our hour of need.

 

Fishing is about enjoyment, fellowship and the appreciation of all that surrounds us - so lighten up, do some appreciatin', and don't be so rude to the good folks from across the pond.

 

(You 'mercans still drive on the wrong side of the road, though. )

You are well out of order Dragonbat, this is also about FRIENDS and FELLOW ANGLERS, no matter where they are from, having a bit of a laugh.

We do tend to digress now and again and it attracts others to the original topic. :cool:

 

When you have been one here a bit longer or do a search under peoples registered number you will see what I mean.

 

If your comments were meant tounge in cheek, why not use the icon/gremlins

LOL - Dragonbat, may I suggest you have a look at http://www.dale-carnegie.co.uk/ . They offer training in "How to Win Friends and Influence People".

 

You will notice I posted a UK link. Afraid a US one might not sit too well with you.

Dragonbat, your comments were down right rude at best.

We have many overseas members on this forum and we welcome their contributions and friendship.

 

As a relatively new poster you will probably get the benefit of the doubt ,this time.
