I'm just torturing JD, F2T. His knowledge of language has amazed me today.

You've got to add the AR accent.

Acctually, being unfamiliar with the language, I looked it up. Evidently, "blimey"
is a Cockney expletive known since the 19th century, short for Gorblimey, which is from God blind me.

And that would be by adding a 'b' to the beginning of the word

I know, it was mentioned in a meeting years ago explaining why we should never say it. The meeting was in the US! No one here says it with any regularity.

ok, they may be smarter than the general population of men
about skinning a deer, shooting ducks, catching fish
and smashing beer cans on their foreheads...
and then we have Clinton,
that does not even know whether he had sexual relations with a woman or not.
But John Doe, I think you must be the ONLY exception.
I like who I am just find and who I aren't too!
