Re: operation clinton cleanup's "Fer shizzle my nizzle"

That's the kind of language you'd expect from someone hip deep in cleaning up after the First Felon and Her Ankleship!

I think "ok" qualifies as the most popular slang of all time. It even has been borrowed by dozens of other languages. "Cool" would have to be second to "ok".

ARRRGGGHHHH!

That one REALLY hit home! A Tom and Jerry cartoon. "The Zoot Suit Cat", damn near had that same sentence in it. Just too cool. :-)

God bless our troops wherever they may be.

Glad all of you enjoyed it. Just wanted a post we could all agree on and did no harm to anyone. :-)

God bless our troops wherever they may be.

My dear old Mother who never uttered a bad word in her life once got angry at a woman.

Mother kept trying to say something bad about her but couldn't think of anything. Finally she blurted out "that Flapper!"
