Minnow?

Post by Innocent Bystander »

It says "minnow" on the very bottom of the Chiff & Fipple page.
I give up.

Why?

Edited to say: to be precise it says "(minnow)".

I saw that, too.

Maybe Dale's way of calling us "grasshopper" like the old Kung Fu show?

Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Perhaps it is supposed to be read backwards, in whch case it really says, "won nim", which may be significant if you are a Nim player ... or not.
