Kissing her feet might be a shibboleth for a teacher who needs suing. A+++

They're persistent, and thus predictable.Just one more legacy of the 70's. Unfortunately, there are also these legacies:

Best and worst of the 70's

70's slang.

(Happy Bday, GWMoore!)


Would Ann Coulter devise a shibboleth in order to talk to a liberal (if we must)?

I'm sure none of the lovely ladies in our class would ever experience the following:

Have you ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, surely "I can't look that old?" well... You'll love this one!

I was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist. I noticed his DDS diploma, which bore his full name. Suddenly, I remembered a tall, handsome, dark-haired boy with the same name had been in my high school class some 40-odd years ago. Could he be the same guy that I had a secret crush on, way back then? Upon seeing him, however, I quickly discarded any such thought. This balding gray-haired man with the deeply lined face was way too old to have been my classmate; or could he?

After he examined my teeth, I asked him if he had attended Morgan Park High school.
"Yes. Yes, I did. I'm a Mustang," he gleamed with pride.
"When did you graduate?" I asked.
He answered, "In 1959. Why do you ask?"
"You were in my class!" I exclaimed.
He looked at me closely. Then, that ugly, old, wrinkled son-of-a-b**ch asked: "What did you teach?"

Hey, G'Morning ALL!!

Thanks for all the HB wishes and the eye candy (nice to get the ol prurient interests going this early in the morning LOL).....

xs, tnx for the cake...now, maybe you and patton, etal, can lobby the FAA to "Show me my medical" and lemme sit in the pointy end of things that go very fast, and gw will be very, very, happy

"Ladies and Gentlemen,This is your captain gw speaking, welcome to your G3 special charter to beautiful Miami, Florida, we will be departing in a few minutes, and ATC has cleared us direct. So, please disregard some erratic movements of the aircraft, and please notify the flight attendant, so that they many notify the captain to take his vertigo medication. If you see some flares or a fighter or two off the wing, also let the flight attendant know, because the captain would like to engage in some ACM, as it is his belief that a G3 can outfly an F-16 given the right pilot mindset. No your captain is not a terrorist, although, however, he would like to shoot one down, save the County, and be vilified by the MSM. He simply has been grounded for some years because of a closed head injury and some spinal surgeries, and takes some rather heavy doses of medication to control his symptoms. Other than that, he's fine. We will be flying at a cruising altitude of 32,000 feet, so if sudden cabin depress occurs, get on that O2 quick and keep your seatbelts fastened, because the next couple of minutes are going to be very,very interesting. as we are going to be exploring the limits of the G3 envelope. You are going to find your what "Pulling G in multiple axes" really means, and why what you see in movies just "ain't happening". Again, welcome aboard, Relax and enjoy your experience."

Thus has been broken (totally blown away) the shibboleth of why persona with head injuries,post concussion syndrome, a small frontal lobe bleed, blown vertebrae and are heavily medicated shouldn't have FAA commercial medicals. Right????

Anyhow, thanks much for the wonderful HB wishes, and it's really great being alive another year and still FReeping......

Thanks, guys...

Greg
