OK INTREPID LIGHTFOOT LYRICS AND LEGEND-STEEPED LOGICIANS OF ETYMOLOGICAL LEGERDEMAINE. Q's 133 - 138 !! GAME ON !

NOTE: TO PROCEED IMMEDIATELY TO Q's 133 - 138, GO TO YELLOW MARKER ON LEFT BELOW MARKED "LET THE PLAY CONTINUE" . !!!

THE FOLLOWING HOAKUM WAS FOUND WHILE LOOKING UP THE WORD LEGERDEMAINE, TO BE SURE OF ITS MEANING. IN TURN, I FOUND THIS TEXT OF HILARIOUS SUPPOSEDLY ANCIENT WISDOM FROM THE 1600'S.
THE AUTHOR OF THIS OSTENSIBLY 400-ODD YEAR-OLD DOCUMENT IS DESCRIBED BY THIS BRITISH FELLOW BELOW WHO IS CLEARLY DIS-POSESSED OF HIS (SUPER)NATURAL-BORN SENSES, A BRIEF AMUSEMENT ONLY, FOR THE PERSON WHO ENJOYS READING WHAT APPEARS TO BE PSEUDO-ANCIENT HOAKUM..

IT IS THEN, IN KEEPING WITH THE EMBEDDED (WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE HUMOUR ON SOMEONE'S PART), FOLLOWED BY MY NEO-MEDIEVIL LEGAL HOAKUM DISCLAIMER FOR AMUSMENT PURPOSES ONLY AS WELL LOL.... YOU MIGHT ENJOY IT IF YOU READ CAREFULLY, AND READ WORDS WITHIN WORDS.... AS THE ANCIENT OCCIDENTAL NAME 'YURASSIS DRAGON' - IF YOU APPRECIATE AND LIKE THE IMBEDDED WORDS-WITHIN WORDS HUMOUR INTRINSIC TO THAT NAME, YOU MAY LIKE THE NEO-LEGAL DISCLAIMER DOCUMENT IN PARTICULAR BELOW THE FOLLOWING OSTENSIBLY HISTORICALLY RECORDED DOCUMENT TEXT IMMEDIATELY BELOW.

SO, AGAIN; FIRST: THE SUPPOSEDLY REAL 1600'S-ERA TEXT, THEN MY IMBEDDED WORD(S) WITHIN WORD(S) 'LEGAL DISCLAIMER' - ALL OF WHICH IS FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY AND NOT OF REMOTELY REAL FUNCTION, FORM, OR INTENT. LOL'eth.

Rid, Samuel, The art of iugling or legerdemaine: wherein is deciphered, all the conueyances of legerdemaine and iugling, how they are effected, and wherein they chiefly consist: cautions to beware of cheating at cardes and dice: the detection of the beggerly art of alcumistry: and, the foppery of foolish cousoning charmes: all tending to mirth and recreation, especially for those that desire to haue the insight and priuate practise thereof (1614). 48pp

Humour-only legal dis-and-dat-claimer:

Note: The following fine print by geo-steve is for amusement only, and not game related. It may lighten your stress load a little today if you readaethit caerfaelly, and so on. It all came from looking up the definitions and visual thesaurus links from the word "Empiric", of Empirical common usage. That lead to charlatan, the legerdemaine, aka ancient medieval "juglurs" - "lugglers" and in turn this following

Note: the content of this post and any statements pertaining to wagering or the artsof legerdemaine do not necessarily reflect that of Corfid, its membership as an entity and/or legal person(s), and "geo-steve Enterprises, lolLLC, as per the state of Colorado or state of confusion, whichever the offending party is in at the time of befuddlement; be it known that geo-steve Enterprises, lolLLC, holds all parties, corporeal and incorporeal- hereditaments, chattels thereto as typically mishandled plunder,limited lieabiliy statement is limited to geo-steve's lieability, or ability-to-lie, which is as close to zero as is possible per Avegadros's law of diminish molecular constituency to the point of charlatanism, because when geo steve tries to lieum, he turns redduaem and cannudooem. Ayeeshtoem.

That molecular consituency reduction, limited by and oddly enabled by Avegadro's number, is hereby re-defined in terms of quackery, the Webster's definition of an Empiric, from the word Empirical, or 'by observation' upon which so many medical studies are base it would appear. The following brief treatise is meant to partly explain the humourous and/or fictitous origins of the motivations behind these medical and related practises, performed by 'other-than legitimate and real' medical practices, which the following has no bearing upon, being a fictitious act of humour ANYWAY.

- End of humour interlude- - Meanwhile, back at the Game Ranch-

"LET THE PLAY CONTINUE" . !!!

OK , Mindful of the fact that B1 & B2 are outstanding, and it seems likely that none of the active players currently in the game own these; (I did not until a week or do ago, as a gift), and the fact that they are rarities, make me think the fair shot if you guys WANT to pursue them further, of course you may not, and may wish to stay in the UA/Waner/Rhino/Linus std. 20 (?) albums, is to simply supply enough clues that "I" could find them on the Internet with the clues. Lemme know, or if there are any other alternate Q formats/sources you want in lieu of, here and there.

So, Q's 133 - 138 !!

Q133 ....take it away
Q134 ....remind you....
Q135 ....the shade
Q136 ....profusion....
Q137 ....Kinsale (beware proper nouns, they are capped like'K' no matter
where they are positionally in the verse, the dots rule.)
Q138 ....lark

B1 2nd clue - "speedy", and "cargo"
B2 2nd clue - "CANATAL" , and/or "very little light"

HAVE FUN !
