I came across this quote today and thought it applicable to this forum.
"I've always figured information transfer was inversely proportional to politically correct jargon, but I learned a jim-dandy phrase from an institutional training video. I now know how to answer when someone asks me why I go armed. 'Why, it's "to facilitate a positive outcome of lethal threat crisis management of a a close range interpersonal confrontation.'" -- Lyman Lyon

I dunno...I try not to annoy...I fail miserably most of the time...
I'll probably just stick to my tag-line below...
But I'll have the quote put on a card like Cosmo said and carry it with me just in case...I think thats good idea...

I already carry a couple of different cards - one more will not be a problem.

ah yes,
Obfuscation at its best.
I actually prefer the Chicken Little line "What we talking 'bout?"

If I said that word when I was a kid, I'd get my mouth washed out with soap!
