Never too old to learn, eh???

I thought you meant with the title the new hittite grammar in pre-pub.

Peace, Niki! *smile* I've actually considered that pre-pub ........... However, I don't think my language skills permit me to get full value out of the offering, and likely there are not enough years of my life left for me to be able to accomplish better language skills in the time permitted me.

My Greek is not too bad; my Hebrew is -- at the most -- adequate! But, I'd love to read about the Hittites!

I remember a few years ago when we couldn't tell so-called ethnic jokes any long; so we told "Hittite" jokes because they were extinct and couldn't complain anymore. *smile*

Are you that slow of a learner? I fully expect at least 25 more years—but then, you are older than I am [:D]

Thanks for the link http://blog.logos.com/2007/12/meet_dave_kaplan/ That was very entertaining

Jack, My Friend! *smile* I truly would rejoice at 25 more years since I have enough "studies" of various kinds lined up to fill those years!

And .......... I (and I'm confident you, too, Jack!!!) am excited and challenged by my daily living ...

"am gonna give that to the Lord, eh???

I still ride, Jack! *smile*

Good weather to ride too right now in Ontario!

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/487634#Comment_487634

It certainly is, Geo! *smile* Had a short ride yesterday, needed a new battery, so am now ready to go!

I didn't realise that you lived in Ontario ,, along with me and Bruce Dunning and Sleiman and others, of course .......... I'm in Oshawa (for my American Friends - on the North Shore of Lake Ontario across from upstate New York) East of Toronto.

Edit: I'm not sure where upstate New York ends and Western New York begins ... *smile*

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/487642#Comment_487642

I am close enough... in Mississauga (west of Toronto)!

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/487642#Comment_487642

Perhaps it is time for an Ontario Logos Users Group!

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/487647#Comment_487647

Geo ... *smile*

Let me tell you what happens when you get old .......

You have what are called, "Seniors' Moments" ........... temporary amnesia, it's on the "tip of my tongue," or whatever .........

because I actually knew you were my neighbour in Mississauga and just plum forgot, eh??? *smile*

Perhaps it is time for an Ontario Logos Users Group!

Perhaps this Fall it might be nice to have a single meeting to "test the waters" ....

Actually, I'm not too interested in a on-going group, but it would be nice to meet once ...

Steve is over near Chatham, and I'd love to meet him once ....

I ruefully discover that I'm still making lots of mistakes in life, some of which are even sinful!

Here I am a fairly young man about to turn 39 on my next birthday [;)] and I can claim that I don't make mistreaks. [:D] (Anyone want a bridge?)

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/487652#Comment_487652

Peace, George! *smile*

Tell me about the bridge, someday, eh???

Maybe once a year we should meet at a Timmies and split a few double-doubles and donuts!

I still ride, Jack! *smile*

I'm from the South (US, that is). My ride is a Silverado—That's a pickup truck for the uninformed.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/487670#Comment_487670

Sounds great, Jack! We'll put my Suzuki Burgman in the back of your Silverado, and off we go for coffee! *smile*

Working my way through school one job I had was on the assembly line, putting axles on pickups ... good memories ....

My uncle raised those when I was a teen, and my father tried that for a year or so. Don't believe I need one [:D]

If you don't want a hog, you could get a rice burner.

Milford, do you see what you started? With apologies to our Asian friends, I only want North-American-built vehicles by a North-American-owned company.

*smile* Jack! I truly respect you as a true-blue loyal American! A truly honourable man indeed!

No fooling, Jack! You DO Walk Tall in my eyes!

If only I'd known what I was starting .......

But ... right now I can't ponder "what might have been...." ........... because ...

right now!

our friend George is trying to sell me -- for my investments portfolio -- a bridge ... he offers very favourable terms ....

what do you think? Is George on the "up and up"??? Would this bridge benefit me?

Definitely ! Would you need a bridge loan? [:D] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_loan

[^o)]Hmmmmmmm![^o)] Ask me no questions, and I will tell you no lies [:D]

I truly respect you as a true-blue loyal American!

I am fully aware that Canada is a North American country [H]

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/487921#Comment_487921

George! I truly appreciate your humour! *smile*

I'm going to postpone my "bridge decision" until after I receive my income tax refund from the Canadian Government! Thanks for helping me with the "bridge loan"! Very funny indeed!

They've hung on to my money now for several months; and I want it back!!!

Jack, that brings up an interesting change in my mind and my way of thinkiing! *smile*

For many years I've been a bit unhappy that the People of the United States have referred to themselves as Americans! Because, as you have mentioned my country is in North American also.

Now! Interestingly enough, eh??? I don't mind that at all! Not at all! Also, I myself refer to the people living South of the Southern Canadian Border as Americans! I don't know why my attitude has changed; however changed it has!!!

So you, Jack, and George are Americans; and this Canadian respects those who are loyal to their country! To me that is proper and honourable!
