History makes a difference, and I'm ignorant...
I guess if you had American Johnny B. Nice and Osama B. Notsonice sitting in a restaurant, and Osama says sumpthin' like "I guess that pitcher's plane was too small to do much damage", I can see how Johnny should punch him in the face. The comment, read literally, doesn't offend, but tie it to history and a speaker and it has a whole different meaning.

Since I have no memory of previous posts in this case, I don't see what others might. Even admitting that, though, I still continue to see the post as innocuous and its response as over the top. Should I add "eppie-Occhi" as a "do not interject myself" pairing?? -- default: yes.

so, I'll take off my Junior Patrolman hat, and badge, and flashlight/baton, and cuffs, and stun gun, and gas canister, and communication device, roger that, and bullets, and semi-automatic, and holster, and belt oops my pants fell down I'll just put the belt back on, thanks. Yes, that was Dora and it's very difficult to find her in this size... it's for traffic stops... uh, no I can't tell you any more about that.

You actually understood me correctly. It was just a ironic joke towards Occhi and had nothing to do with behaving according to company (army) policy (where I hadn't been thinking about at the moment I was writing this down.

Occhi and me had many discussions about Iraq, and finally now he told us why he wrote the things that he did.:D

For the same reason I'm always so positive about our royal family.
