The South Asian mafia (Tong??) is tightening its grip. We will have to discover a Visayan Dha to keep them happy

As a test of your sagacity, I would like you to consider a proposal to change the spelling of Darb to Dahb: sounds more Bostonian.

Welcome, gentlemen!

Welcome, gentlemen!

Why would you have to change the spelling? That's the correct way to pronounce "darb," after all.

Thanks for the welcome(s), everyone. I need to get indoctrinated ... I mean trained, then I will be ready to uphold the admirable standard of vigorous, iron-fisted oppression set by my esteemed predecessors. Hm. I mean cafeful evaluation followed by strict, but fair, enforcement of the rules. Ahem.

Yes, and any post not referring to SEA swords will be locked.

Thanks for talking this on......

Ian · 14th April 2005, 02:42 AM

Thanks for the kind welcome to the two new kids.

Mark and I drew straws and he gets to be the "good cop." You can guess where that leaves me. I'm dustin' off the zapper that leaves no trace of any transgresser on this site and erases all memory of them ever having been here!!! Rick passed it on and promised it was almost painless -- just bend over for a moment ...

RSWORD · 14th April 2005, 02:51 AM

Let me, dha, offer, dha, my congratulations to our newest, dha, moderators. It is a dharn fabulous thing and well deserved. All dha best!

Damn straight, Ariel.

Thank you for all the nice comments and the clever puns. I am now going to flex my muscle, because if I hear one more "dha" pun my head is going to implode.

PS: Dha "dha" rules, and everything else drools. Or they would if they could. So there.
