Mikolbe Is A Cretin (Usually)

[4588686]

So, as most of you know MIKolbe is a cretinous, vulgar jerk. But I would like to note that although MIKolbe is a monster he has, perhaps for the very first time in his life, done a very good deed. As some of you know I am working with some other students to help start a workshop/summer camp in Bosnia. I asked MIKolbe if he could, for the first time in his depraved existence, do some good and give me some advice about corporate philanthropy. He informed me that he had no advice to offer (no surprise there) but asked if he could personally help at all. Specifically he asked if we were looking for, for example, water bottles. As it happened our group did need 50 water bottles for the kids and the mentors we are training. When MIKolbe asked for my information I thought that maybe he'd be able to get us some bulk purchase discount. Instead he somehow, probably using the mob, got us 50 FREE water bottles that are not only totally free but also personalized for our group, and on top of that got his company to cover shipping. Which was amazing and incredibly helpful.

So we now have about $100 extra to devote to the project.

So, I guess my point is that rumors of MIKolbe's total moral bankruptcy may be (slightly) exaggerated and that I would like to use this to publicly thank him.


Also, once the world is at my feet, he may serve as my Governor of Italy. :yes:

As long as we're admitting that I'm the man in the relationship.

[MIKolbe]

between the 2 of you, 'man' is pretty loosely defined....

I hate to break this to you, but it's spelled Cretan, since that word means you are from Crete, and they spell it with an A, not an I.

I just felt I would share this with you since you called Rush Limbaugh a "Cretin", and now you are calling MIkolbe one. If it hadn't been for the fact that there is no such thing as a Cretin, I might have been offended at that statement.

I was not accusing MIKolbe of being an inhabitant of Crete, I was (jokingly) accuring him of being a cretin.

I know you were joking. I was referring to the Limbaugh statement.

If you're an historian or historian buff, it's Cretan.

Cretin. I love French.
