Silly boy! A coward is either is a "yellow belly" or has a "yellow
stripe up his back," not on the belly. . . If you're gonna try
hurling
insults at the invictive Captain Neal try doing it right, at least.
Damned ignorant foreigners!

Foolish fellow, I didn't employ the term "Coward", you came up with
that
all by yourself. Perhaps you know something more about that and would
like to enlighten us?

Cheers

Churlish child! A rather anemic wiggle there. The hook is still firmly
implanted in your lower lip. . . One does not make references to yellow
or yellow stripes upon the human anatomy without implying cowardice.
