    This is sooooo news worthy.

    Bruce (BWS550) typed in SMALL LETTERS!!!!! Yes at first I thought I was seeing things but it actually happend. The curse of the "all caps" button has been lifted on Bruce's keyboard. Here see for yourself.

    This is a special day in FerrariChat history. :D It did happen a while back, but sometimes the rare bird in the forest just flys by unknoticed.

    Bruce has glacoma and uses the caps to see the letters. not something i would tease him about if i were you.

    Put down the crack pipe ernie, Bruce was quoting something said by ferrarifixer earlier in the thread. He probably copy/pasted.

    It was a cut and paste. He does it all the time.

    I don't think so. Ol Brucie has been pulling a fast one on us.

    To this I am very sympathetic. However, I never have understood why seeing his own message typed normally and not in all caps was any harder than reading all the rest of the many threads on FerrariChat.

    Because the board software won't let you adjust font size when you type or read. Try it. Then STFU. I typed that large for you in Bruce's honor :)

    My friend, to see if there's been any change, I'll test the [ size= ] [/ size ] feature - just in case Brother Bruce's ALL (which I consider to be a highlight to any day) CAP key ever breaks, he'll have some recourse.

    [size=-4]-4[/size]
    [size=-3]-3[/size]
    [size=-2]-2[/size]

    Whoa, that one sure backfired... But hey, here's a suggestion that might help Bruce see the lettering better, and not just on FChat.

    In Internet Explorer, go to VIEW > TEXT SIZE > INCREASE and keep increasing until you are happy. :)

    Hope this helps,

    Ammz.

    Under assumption he already does that, I type in lowercase on his threads, too.

    But, he has to keep ALL CAPS on F-Chat. It's the LAW.

    As I said, IT DOESN"T WORK ON THIS BOARD. I tried it, it doesn't. Works on websites, not on VB boards, evidently.

    Has anyone noticed that Bruce has a twin, who is a polar opposite?

    Oh yeah well how about this one.

    Either someone has hacked into Bruce's computer or his evil twin (steve f) as clubbed him over the head. LOL :D

    ERNIE, I SUFFER FROM DIABETES AND HAVE HALF VISION IN MY LEFT EYE..

    TO TYPE IN CAPS (NOT SHOUTING AT ANYONE) IT ENABLES ME TO SEE A LITTLE BETTER AND TO TYPE A LITTLE BETTER..I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR ALL MY YEARS ON FCHAT..

    I TYPED IN SMALL LETTER JUST TO JOKE WITH YOU, BUT IT SEEMS YOU THINK IM PULLING YOUR LEG............

    AS FARMER DAVE AND OTHERS SAID, I COPYIED AND PASTED THE QUOTE...


    IF YOU THINK I AM STILL LYING, THATS YOUR ****IIN PROBLEM...

    SO FOR NOW ON, THINK BEFORE YOU ACT BEFORE YOU MAKE YOURSELF LOOK LIKE A JERK OFF....


    BRUCE.

    Yes I did get that.

    I also sent you a PM telling you that I was just teasing, and hoped you realized that. But maybe you didn't, and maybe the others didn't see all the smiles faces I put at the end of my post's.

    I was just having some fun cause it was the first time in years I had seen you use small caps thats all.

    So everyone just cool down.
