Well, since it HAS to be southern... "Ah guess ah is goin" would be my interpretation.

Heard of him?? : ) I have about 300 Redneck jokes that I made up that are based on his format. His Christmas song & the song he came out w/for the '96 Olympics in Atlanta. Believe every Southerner knows about him.

Southern Canada? A land where those polar bear Coke commercials REALLY take place. : ) And people have pet polar bears named Fido. @ least being a drake, you'd be able to hunt down things to feed a pet like that. Same point I make for when I get a pet panther. People say you can't do that!! I'd like to prove them wrong. If you get one young & raise it to be a "house cat" and take care of it & feed it, I don't see why it would attack you. Maybe they're misunderstood like us dragons. Everybody thinks dragons go around attacking everybody, & well I don't find that to be true. Of course, we don't put up w/a whole lot, that's for sure. : ) You can't play w/a drake's emotions & escape unscathed!!
> What is the AGAIG stand for?
You must be talking about my quote: "Sell crazy someplace else, we're all stocked up here" Nicholson,AGAIG. It's As Good As It Gets. Jack Nicholson says this in the movie to this lady & shuts the door in her face. If you didn't see the movie, you should, it won a lot of awards for '97. I found it to be pretty funny myself.
Seeing that this is all-out war now, I announce "This is war!!!! ¡¡¡¡Este es guerra!!!!" as I pick up the word "anvil" and throw it @ BlueDragon. This holographic anvil goes flying @ BlueDragon, but it looks real. hehehehehehehe!! As soon as the anvil leaves my paws, I go rolling on the ground in laughter. Even more hehehehehe!! *evil grins* the whole time.

Maybe even possibly YWSWT: You want Spam with that. YTAV8WFIT: You think a V-8 will fit in there.
The possibilities are endless. And just think it's all gonna start with these posts & spread from there. I can see it now, high tech Rednecks as displayed in the Houston Chronicle:
1·17·99--The net has become flooded with new initials like YTAV8WFIT and DLTDHYOTWO in the last 3 weeks. They are being called the work of the South, says one internet user who wouldn't give us any identity. In order to accompany all the new initials, a 1500 page book will be published, VERY soon we hope. Noone can keep up w/the demand for new FAQs. Many, who don't understand these new expressions are like "WATPADTA!!" (What Are These People And Dragons Talking About!!). The rest are replying w/the usual "Huh?". The CIA, FBI, and the NIP (National Internet Police) are saying "We need to NIP (NPI [no pun intended]) this thing in the bud" as so elequently put by Mr. Fife so many years ago. Their investigations so far, only indicate that someone in AFD is responsible, but apparently they are all protecting each other, because none will say who's doing what; and well, needless to say a handful of talons can be rather persuasive, to say the least. : ) The dragons are again trying to rule the internet as they did the contryside some 300 years ago. This madness must end!!! It could lead to a hysteria that might help CAUSE a Y1999 bug before the Y2K bug is even caught. Is it too late to save internet sanity? In a recent poll 94% said YES, since the 1st day this all started, 1% said NO, and the other 5% said "What's the internet?" Jeff Foxworthy's popularity up 10% says People magazine. Bill Clinton popularity down 745% says "the word on the street".
Imagine That!!! This is a loco mundo we live in drakes, so know that AIP (anything is possible)! =<KEYSTONE>=

As an X-Filer, I know what obfuscation is & that about it in that statement.
I'd start calling people Blue again, but then there's like 15 of 'em so I guess maybe it could get narrowed down to 5 or so. : ) Good thing I didn't say Green, because there's a lot of us greens out there too. Just for the record, I'm not green, I'm dark jade!!! : ) I'm ademate (or however you spell it) about clarifying that for some crazy reason, even though nobody's ever debated it.
A note of caution: lava is hot, don't touch it. That is unless you're a lava-based creature of some sort. Abominable lava-man if you will. I don't think we have any of those on THIS planet @ least I've never seen 'em & they haven't been on TV or movies, so I doubt it.

He had a tv show a while back but I didn't find it that funny. I don't know, I guess he's more of a vocal comedian than an acting comedian...

A panther? Why not a tiger or something cute...B=8) Anyways I think it's illegal to keep any large cat as a pet.

Hmmm. Well, if you want to get technical about things, 'crwth' DOES have a vowel. One. At the time the word was invented 'w' could serve in either position, literally being double-u when used as a vowel. ]:>

I wouldn't worry about that, since I'm not sure the word exists outside of my deranged imagination. You may not be the only one who has no idea what I'm talking about.
I mean, even _I_ don't know what I'm talking about most of the time! ;=8)
>"And besides y's y a vowel anyway, when it's not?"
*grin* Both 'w' and 'y' could be considered vowels in some circumstances, since they produce vowel-like sounds in a few words. But not being a linguist, I really couldn't tell you if that makes them anything other than consonants.
*pause*
That actually didn't make it any clearer at all, did it? ;=8) -- _________________________________________________________ \^\^// ,^ ( ..) ~~ Samurai ~~ | \ \ DC.D f+s+h--CK^K a $-m-d++WL++Fr L12m BW e++g--i--! \ `^--^ \ \ \ Please note Reply-To: header now set.

It depends on where you live, & then even in legal areas, you need a license. Another words, you can't live in the suburbs & have 1. : ) Just because it's illegal, doesn't make it a bad idea. Panthers are good because they can hide in the dark. Take this scenario for instance: You have a panther (tamed one) on the front porch, it's dark outside. Someone comes to the front door & knocks. All the sudden they hear this growling. Once they realize what it is, they go running for the car, all the while you're looking out the window laughing your butt off. Hahahaha!!! Then you walk out to their car (if they're not scared of dragons more than panthers, they'll usually stay in the driveway) and say, what you're scared of my cat? Then make them get out of the car & pet the cat so he/she'll get to know them better or you threaten them w/your talons. They'll be scared to death, it's great fun. Great deterrent for those door-2-door salespeople.

ahhhhhhh, BD, make the feathers stop. hehehehe. torture. hehehehe. help hehehehe. I, oh, a pie hehehehe apple pie heheheh yum yum yum heheheh. Trying to get all the pie and eat it hehehehehehe yum yum. There's still more on me, but the feathers, I can't reach it all. hehehehehehehehe. *starts shaking to shake off the rest of the pie I couldn't reach and to try to avoid the feathers* Why ostrich feathers BD, why? hehehehehe. Then, midst all the chaos, a strange sensation comes over BD. Suddenly, w/the words "hehe Gravity heheheheh Ice hehehe" BD is lifted off the ground and turned upside down, w/his head 2' off the ground. The ice he's standing on in the air is extremely slick, yet doesn't feel cold to the feet. To make things more interesting, as I point to a banana peel on the ground nearby, banana peels start appearing on the already slick icy surface. "hehe what'cha hehe gonna do now hehehehehehe BD?" A delicious pine-apple upsidedown cake, right side up for BD right now : ), appears on the ground above BD's head. Oddly enough, it just mamages to stay out of talon's reach. "Turn heheheh these feathers hehehehehe off hehehehehehehehehehe"

Generally the farther you get from habitation the more stuff becomes legal...In most midwestern states it is legal to own them ouside of the city limit, same here in California too.
A few months ago someone 4 miles from my house had an alligator secretly in their yard, and it escaped, and city confiscated the alligator since it was illegal to have it within the city limits...
