I remember reading about a balloonist in the 80’s who was trying to circumnavigate the world.
He crossed into soviet airspace over Romania accidentally and was shot down.
But that wasn’t the best part lol… the pilots who shot him down recieved medals for “bravery in the face of extreme danger”
L O L !
Another case where a balloon was mistaken as an “UFO”. Lol
Well Garg, those pilots WERE flying Soviet aircraft. Pretty brave if you ask me.
Do you take offense when 'Gargantua' Graces your thread?

Between the Always, Nevers, No English’s, and encouragbles, we almost have a dead heat!

I say the kids ask for it.

No comprende, I’m a French Canadian! :p
-
I’m basically lazy so I let others say the witty remarks that I intend to convey. Only when it’s important to have the perfect thing said do I then feel the need to weigh in……wry grin
-
I am basically an awful typist, so I get annoyed when someone else gets in there first.
Especially when it’s that youngster, Garg! -
Ahh… fame. :)

To the cheering crowds
Thank you! Thank you… !

“Garg”,
I would like to vote for ALL OF THE ABOVE.
Sort of a "Always/Never in my back yard,…Senor~"
And I suppose it’s probably better(safer?) to have “Garg” to laugh at rather than trying to get rid of him(Grin)!
“Tall Paul”

Jajaja! Claro que no hablas castellano. Que mono!
-
I encourage Gargantua to ‘Grace’ threads - Because I can, and the suffering of others makes me laugh.
LOL So many epic threads/quotes/polls on this site, the fact that 6 people actually voted this option into an “almost tie” with first place contender has made my day today. LOL.
-
I had to chuckle at the first one knowing it was Garg who created that option! I had to vote that way……
-
What I like about Gargantua is that he is very funny at times and very serious at times. I can’t handle people that just post dissertation posts-it’s just me. I assume that most of us on this site are very educated and smart. It probably helps that I find Gargantua funny and agree with him on lots of things. I admit it.
That’s the first sign of the fact you are clearly engaged in a conspiracy against me! :P
-
I agree with Crom - for the most part.
-
Garg is a first class guy. He makes me laugh just about every day.
-
I must confess I cried myself to sleep many a night when he was too busy with work to grace us with his presence. May it never happen again!
