Dan Awesome's Rage Maker

[AdamSmith]

So I am always the last to know, it seems.

http://ragemaker.net/ is the site that lets you (or your grandmother, or anyone ) generate cartoons like the one below that I discovered & posted a while back.

Should you be of such mind.

[MsGuy]

This is so cool.

I've noticed that a lot of Derp cartoons were floating around on the net. This kind of explains why.

Thanks for posting this, AS.

Thanks for posting this, AS.

We await in fear & trembling.

[RA1]

Should that be trembling in fear? Just curious.

Best regards,

[AdamSmith]

Should that be trembling in fear?

Doesn't quite capture my existential dread of certain preparations likely being made even now...

...somewhere on that Natchez Trace.

[RA1]

Yes, MsGuy is to be feared, etc. I would love to hear how our posters pronounce Natchez.

Best regards,

RA1

From my Cajun ex & in-laws, I learned not to even hazard a guess on pronunciation of place names in either Louisiana or Mississippi without waiting to hear them say it first. Natchez was one of many such.

[MsGuy]

Nat chess...emphasis on the first syllable.

[AdamSmith]

Not sylLABle.

In fact those Cajuns taught me at least 3 useful things: how to say Biloxi and Natchez (have no idea why it came up), and how to make gumbo.

Oh, and to always suck the good stuff out of crawfish heads.

[AdamSmith]

They also taught that one should speed across Mississippi as fast as possible if constrained to drive through it on the way to anywhere.

[RA1]

Ha, ha. OK, I agree there are many pronunciations. Hereabouts, we seem to prefer Nat chis. Yes, emphasis on the first syllable

Best regards,
