I was about to post the link over here but hitted "Buy" instead :palm: --- End quote --- No worries. I already have 2 of them plus a junk unit. I think 4 total would be overkill. :-DD Edit.....although I do have 3 Type 547's. ;D |

I always heard that said "bought the farm", as in past tense, already dead. Though there is some irony in there; like the song goes: "There ain't nothin' but the dead and dyin' back in my little town..." :o --- End quote --- --- Quote from: Saskia on July 20, 2022, 01:26:39 pm ---Nope. present tense as used in various USAF training videos as for when to eject and making sure you do it early enough to avoid becoming a farmland owner ... --- End quote --- It is my understanding that "bought" or "buy" are both valid - but what is distinctive is the use of the definite article: "the" - not the indefinite article: "a". I.E. "Buy the farm" or "Bought the farm" are indicative of a fatal outcome. "Buy a farm" or "Bought a farm" are indicative of a real estate purchase. At least, that's how I understand it. |
