Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here is my example with WFTD:

In the span of one week, Two men died. The First Lester Maddox, was one of the names that became synonomous with Racism in the 60s, but to read his obit in the NYTimes, you would not know it. OF course it took half of the Obit to get around to the fact that he was of course a Democrat.

In contrast, Americas longest serving Senator Died Last night, A man of many accomplishments he lived to be 100, Stormed the Beach at Normandy taking Nazis prisoner at the point of the Pistol, winning the Bronze star, and fathering children IN HIS Seventies.

What did the headline in the Times read..."Strom Thurmond Foe of Integration Dies at 100

The author????? Adam the clymer Clymer.

Giving Credence to the credibilty of The President and the Vice President, the manis truly a major league @$$hole.

Again? She's such a clymer...

:^)

[Argh]

HAHAHAHA!!! Good for them, especially Jay, who seems occasionally to hide the fact he's a Democrat.

[Gabz]

A likely story.......................

[hobbes1]

Don't you start....I am still not over this whole Maddoxrehab/ThurmondSmear thing....

[Slip18]

What the heck are you doing coming in first, ya Clymer (pronounced lik&rish)?

[Hegewisch Dupa]

Thanks for the ping, Hobbes

I hope every media clymer does as good of a job remembering Sen. Kennedy's "issues" once that pig finally pickles himself to death

From the article Teenager paid £7 an hour to catch cow dung:

Svein Tore Hauge, 14, has to follow cattle around with a pan waiting for them to defecate, reports Aftenposten.

Q: You know the difference between his job and the position of hillary's press secretary?
A: The pan.

[Slip18]

Congratulations, camle! Is that really you?

[hobbes1]

Clymer (pronounced lik&rish)?

I have been waiting since I hit post, for someone to catch that...

[camle]

yep. thet's me. now i'm famous i promise i won't forget all the little people....:-)

thanx for noticing. I have another submission, but I found out later that other people had the same idea, so they probably won't print it.

[Gabz]

HUH?????

Don't mind me - I'm not really awake - I stayed up WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too late last night and have not had enough sleep.

[Slip18]

What pic? Did you bring in a pic, and I missed it?

[Conspiracy Guy]

ROTFLMAO

[NeoCaveman]

What the heck are you doing coming in first, ya Clymer

That's major league Clymer, Big Time to you....

:-P

[hobbes1]

You are aware of Course, that Senator Thurmond has shuffled off this mortal coil....

Well contrast the Lester Maddox Treatment

To the NYTimes mentioned Headline (see beg. of thread) for Senator Thurmond.

[hobbes1]

The national telemarketer DO NOT CALL registry is up and running (though a bit slowly...)

[camle]

the pic in the article. they didn't ask for a pic, and they put Sandra Oconnor's pic. reckon I ain't that famous that I can put my own mug on my own ramblings...:-)

[camle]

no it ain't

[Argh]

Well, it was bound to happen eventually. Some British Columbia clymer has sickly brooded on his fetish to the point of announcing that Stonehenge is actually a representation of a certain part of the female anatomy. Gaia and all that crap, I guess.

[camle]

sounds like another crack pot to me. we all know stonehenge is to guide alien spacecraft...
