"Sea Creatures Rule! WA-ter! WA-ter!"

Reminds me of a home schooler's joke.

We've solved the socialization problem. Every day I take my kid into the bathroom and beat him up and try to sell him drugs.

Shalom.

The popularity of all-you-can eat buffets is a strike against your theory.

WE know. We're a cautious lot. Glad to have ya. You will find it more fun than a :

It was originally done by Bud Abbot and Lou Costello. You can see the entire bit in "The Naughty Nineties" which either Blockbuster or Hollywood Video has carried in the very recent past. I do it with Toby and Mr. Bates because those were the two characters in the Toby Show in Branson, Mo. where I used to see it done.

Toby: (suspicious look)You're the manager?
Mr. Bates: That's right.
Toby: You know the fella's names?
Mr. Bates: Well, I should.
Toby: Then Who's on first?
Mr. Bates: Yes.
Toby: I mean the fella's name.
Mr. Bates: Who!
Toby: (frustrated) The first baseman!
Mr. Bates: Who!
Toby: (angrily) The guy playing first base!
Mr. Bates: Who's on first!
Toby: Look, What's the name of the first baseman!
Mr. Bates: No, What's the name of the second baseman!
Toby: I Don't Know!
Mr. Bates: He's on third. We weren't talking about him!
Toby: (screaming) How'd I get on third base?

Shalom.

Depends.

Hey, Buddy. Vinnie, here, says that's all you can eat.

Shalom.

[Auntbee]

Will you put me on the Friday Silliness ping list. Please.

New tagline. ;^)

[Miss Behave]

"Oh, do behave! : }"

I do, unless when faced with suck emergencies. :-)

[Fierce Allegiance]

IIRC, it was "suck emergencies"

[EllaMinnow]

[TheBigB]

Hmmmm. Witty yet sarcastic remarks are rendered less effective when the one trying to write them SCREWS 'EM UP!

Like me.

[ArGee]

Ask Fierce Allegiance about his suck parties!

I thought it was suck emergencies.

Like when the vacuum cleaner breaks down or ...

Oh, MY!

Nevermind.

Shalom.

>> I'm shopping for beer and vodka. <<

A FReeper after my own heart. We were suppose to get some snow last weekend. I brought a LARGE bottle of tequila, a case of beer, and a carton of smokes. Priorities! Priorities! Priorities!

My mother-in-law was visiting a couple summers when a neighbor friend had come over to help me with some landscape stuff. (see how I do landscaping on my about page) He dug up the clematis and my MIL was finding a new spot in the new garden.

After a while Jim, my neighbor yell over "How's that clematis of yours, Nana?"

My wife turned beet red, I dropped my beer, my neighbor started rolling in laughter and my Nana, who doesn't drink, decided it was time for a glass of wine.

The joke has been running for years now. Last summer, Jim gave Nana a nice potted clematis as a gift.

[Fierce Allegiance]

I've never hosted a party that sucked, although I have seen... Never mind, you had to be there.
