    And here I thought it was pronounced more like the sound of tur .. uh, that which leaves the body through a lower extremity. See, that doesn't rhyme.

    'Urqh' does of course rhyme with 'berk'...as I'm sure any former WWII British soldier would know !

    I too, have missed his dulcet tones around here...............

    We have here a member named Urqh
    Who has the occasional quirk.
    When Biak announced
    Urqh's absence pronounced,
    I thought, "How I miss that old jerk."


    (My apologies, Urqh. There are only so many words that rhyme with Urqh.)

    screw it, I'm just going to call him Tom.

    I was thinking. I know, not a good idea. But isn't it curious that "Tom" disappears just before this stuff in Scotland takes root? I mean, here he says he is going to stand on a hill, wearing a Kilt no less, do some kind of "hand fest" Pagan ceremony and the next thing we hear is Scotland is voting for Independence???? Coincidence?
    Or maybe his past covert operations has caught up with him?
    Hey I'm grasping for straws here. He not only owes A-58 money, he said he'd send me a couple of magazines relating to WW2 that I'm still waiting on!

    It's hard to guess where a man like Urqh is. He knows 174 ways to kill a man with common objects found in his pockets. He is even a master of Di Hun Pa Tsieng - the Tibetan art of death by drawing the brain out of the nose with a secret twist of the victim's nose hairs. Only three men have ever mastered that art and Urgh killed the other two. With a shotgun.
    He speaks all 17 dialects of Pashtun fluently and some say he has fled into the hills of Afghanistan with a herd of killer sheep and an SMLE. Others say he is in Nigeria silently killing the members of Procol Harum one by one with injections of Gaboon Viper venom.

    Or maybe he spilled whiskey on his computer?

    I'm afraid, my fellow Rogues, that we must consider the inconceivable: Urqh may have left us for another a woman. :eek:

    I'm sure they are, but we are talking about our urqh, a tribe of one.

    I am a little worried that someone here who shall remain unmentioned showed him a newly noticed type of sheep he and others of this forum may take up "herding" .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhqfcp8jVTU please tell me it isn't so.

    I had always thought he was from the Clan Urquhart and just dropped the second U and got lazy after the H . Actually since he's not paying any attention to us we can make up all kinds of theories.

    He killed a man in Reno, just to watch him die.
    Now, he's stuck in Folsom prison with no WiFi...

    This is probably the most likely scenario knowing urqh.

    I would have thought the name 'Urqh' is pronounced the same as 'erk' which is RAF slang for technical persons. Wasn't he just that?

    He certainly knew a thing or two, especially about the extreme importance of air superiority.
