Wait... I thought it was a Royal Marine that had the string of ears in his bergen? Got stripped of a whole bunch of decorations and dishonourably discharged...

 

[David Anla Shok']

Well Ted was discharged under less than normal/ideal/honourable circumstances.

I'll say no more, others know more of the story than I do, but I believe Argentinian appendages were being collected.

Well, we all have our hobbys....

You can always try asking Old BEar, he knows Ted better than anyone else I know, I'm sure he'll stop by here if you ask nicely, Old BEar I mean, not Ted.

Mind you, Ted might stop by, if he does, be respectful.

Respectful? If the man's a Gurkha, you're not respectful, you're worshipful. Those guys aren't human, they're bloody ghosts... :shock:

Ahh, but Ted really hates suckups!

Careful, you know ghosts... the come when you speak their name

That's the Devil you're thinking of...

While I did read the 'final' ruling concerning the question being discussed on this thread, I genuinely believe that a few more lines in the description of the rule concerning Blue Star HJ's might have avoided this whole back and forth.


Sorry, but I merely wished to drop my two cents into this. [seeing that I would have interpreted the ruling in the same manner as Norm did... and I still do...]

 

[lastbesthope]

I see... best to avoid him, then...

Unless he interprets your avoidance as a sign of disrespect....

It's not easy to get on or stay on Ted's good side.

Lord knows how I managed it! :lol:
