  1. I like the "ambulamps". It is similar to when somebody "axed" a question; and other gems of the Ebonics language.
    Why do our heavily pigmented comrades work so hard to erase any knowledge of proper English they may have received in the U.S. educational system?
    Well, that is another can of worms: the U.S. school system, oy vey.

    1. I though it was ampalamps... Maybe Ebonics has regional dialects?

    1. 9mm fmj or .380 of the same flavor. Nothing happens unless a hit is made on a vital.

  3. Burning question: Is he insured by his employer under Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield or Cigna?
