    I dialed the number, but for the life of me I couldn't tell whether the one who answered was Mr. Sinker or Mrs. Sinker. All the voice said was "Gotcha", then said Bwwwaaaahaaaaah and hung up.

    Nope. I am a gentleman, and I always esteem my Brethern more than myself. I would even be gracious enough to let you take the first punch. And then the second, third, fourth.............

    Hey, I thought THAT language was banned on here, and anyone who uses it, gets the axe, no questions asked. Yep, Brother Jeff, we're sure gonna miss seeing you around here....:laugh:


    FYI, you need to rub your fingertips in soap for typing THAT language on here. Your mom and dad would "switch" you for sure, if they knew what you typed. :wavey: :love2: :D

    I need to elaborate on why THIS board has zero tolerance for THAT language. Many, many years ago, a cryptic cult, that went by APPLES worshipped Apollyon. APPLES stood for Apollyon Please Perform Lethal Evils Stat(they were an evil cult, but about as bright as a burned out 20 watt lightbulb).When they would attempt to summon him, they used THAT language. So, whenever THIS board sees THAT language, they ban said offender(s) pronto. So, Brothers ktn4eg and Jeff, we're sure gonna miss you. LOL

    Well, that's good enough for me. I'll take a half-a-dozen.

    Oh, it's been so long since we discussed this. What am I buying?

    Scripture teaches all residents of West Virginia should be banned.

    Hezekiah 3:16 Behold, the West Virginia evil. When the moon is full, the moon shines brightly, and temptation is nigh, verily verily. KJVO

    Sounds like the punch may be spiked... be careful driving home.

    I would like to compliment all my brothers and sisters who are participating in this thread. This has been a most civil, gracious and intellectual conversation about this subject since I have been a member here. I have benefited from the wisdom and perspicacity of the contributors.

    We all owe Herald a debit of gratitude for his courage in broaching this sensitive matter.

    And his succinctness in stating his view is impressive.

    BTW, for those of you who are about to look up "perspicacity," I'll save you the time. The definition is:
    See, it has nothing to do with sweating.

    I knew if I search long enough and hard enough, I would find the interpretation of the OP.

    Many have interjected their fine opinions and outstanding theories of the meaning behind the code.

    Unfortunately, all those opinions and theories are wrong.

    The meaning of those dots is quite easy to break once a cryptological study is done. (or a google search on the historical background of dots) The acute roundness of the dots are the giveaway as to their origin. They originated in the last decade of the 18th Century AD, during the French Revolution.

    The enemy would send secret messages across enemy lines to undercover spies using these very dots that you see in the OP. It seems Herald has learned the code of the French Revolution spies.

    What do those particular dots really say?

    "What did I miss?"

    That's right, Herald was asking a simple question that only got complicated answers.

    Well Herald, I have the answer for your question...

    It all started just a little over 6,000 years ago when God decided He would create a universe full of life and wonder. First He spoke the world into existence, you missed that one. He continued speaking and next thing you know this world and all that is in it existed.

    People began talking with snakes, donkeys, and who knows what else.

    You really did miss quite a show.

    But in the fine print it states that anyone who has lived at least half of their days in KY, would be granted immunity. I lived in KY until I was 34. Guess you're stuck with me, Bub...:tongue3: :D

    That, and vacuum under the pews, take out the garbage, clean the rest rooms, hand out the programs, change the light bulbs, wipe the windows, and clean around the pulpit. You have to have this done in under 15 minutes, or else........bwaaahhaaaahaaaaa
