And so, Forty Rod went on a posting spree last night, taking out his elipses and scattering them hither and yon. Just what do those three dots mean? Is it a mystery for the ages?
Here's my interpretation of them:
"..." means "I am still interested in this subject but don't have anything to add at the moment. In hopes that someone else will continue this subject, I am sending it back to the top so more people will see it."
Anyone else have an interpretation for them?
AnnieLee, gonna start calling Forty Fonzai Forty Dotdotdot. :D
-
He's trying to be "period" correct? ;D
Slim

Thank you for your interpretation Annie Lee. I was wondering about them little dots myself and was hoping they were a postive gesture. ???

Dang, are there people who get paid for being a psycho? That'd be a cool job. "Hey, lookit me, I'm a professional bozo on the bus!
I'll happily add another guess, Forty Dotdotdot: you were bored out of your gourd? Okie, but why some posts and not others?
:D

He's on his period? Or maybe he's at a loss for words, Writer's Block so to speak..........Buck 8) ::) :-\
-
I bet he's like me, does stuff that means nothin' but drives folks crazy tryin' to find a hidden meaning.
-
It true, that would not surprise me one bit, Del!

Yer just gettin' too opinionated, Forty........Buck 8) ::) :o
-
An opinion is what a person believes to be so.
I'm NOT opinionated.
I'm 100% right every time.
Not an opinion, a fact!

No most sick-cy-a-trysts are crazier than we are. We also get better th-air-a-pee here and it costs less. :o ::) ;D ;)
-
As I look for my Boy Scout manuel to refreshing my Morris code skills, answer this for me. Does anyone commerically use morse code these days?
-
I think it is still used some in the so called 3rd world countries. Also as a side note the code used by RR's and Western Union is slightly different than what was used by rodio operators.
I believe the correct term for the telagraph code is Morse code and the term for the other is International Morse Code.
-
Delmonico you again are right it is Morse not Morris....It's been years sence I've seen much more than a shot on an old Western, using it. I believe theRR's now use Motorola's(Sp?)
-
The reason Amatur Radio opperators are/were required to learn code was that in case of evergency it it easier to jury rig a code trasmitter than a voice one. Also it is easier to read code than voice if the signal is weak.

scratchin my head in wonder....why is this thread called Interpreting Forty Rod
-
It's 'cause a few weeks ago he went all over the place and posted: "..." Miss Annie was just trying to interpret his actions and, like everything else in Tall Tales, it took off from there. ;D ;D ;D
-
Forty Fonzai is mystical, he is the enigmatic Sphinx of Tall Tales. Attempting to interpret him is worthy of serious study.
:D

Well, I've gotten as far as knowing he's cracked, but that's about it.
