Hi Daryl!
BM> (That makes more sense when one remembers you don't get your mail delivered
BM> to the house but to a Post Office Box.) IMO most mail isn't that urgent
BM> and can wait a day or two. Checks (the proper and correct kind!) are nice
BM> to get sooner than later, but still have to deposit
BM> them to be any value.
DS> I saw one today "For parents and grandparents...Life Insurance
DS> for your child". Well, I never had children or grandchildren (I'm
DS> still trying to figure out how to have grandchildren without
DS> children), so it goes straight to the trashcan.
I remember that ad from almost the black-and-white days! Gerber used to
be the 'agent' or at least seemed like the Gerber Baby was predominantly
displayed, and I think at the time it was almost if you're not feeding
your baby Gerber baby food your were feeding it garbage. Anyway, back
to the insurance offer, yes, it has nothing to offer you so may as well
toss it into recycle it so someone else can get the offer on the
recycled paper.
The grandparent step is easy: without children you're not a parent and
so no grandchildren - directly. You forgot about the possibility of
marriage to someone with children, so now you suddenly have children!
BM> So give the guy sitting on the other side of the confessional
BM> nightmares!
DS> Or where the parishoner tells the priest "Forgive me father,
DS> for I have sinned. I murdered several members of Congress".
DS> The priest said "I asked for confession of your sins...not of
DS> your public service". <G>
Now that's a good one!
BM> Gone with the wind!
DS> Frankly, Miss Piggy...I don't give a hoot. - Kermit
BM> Heh. :)
DS> I think it was in The Muppet Movie, where "Doctor Teeth And His
DS> Electric Mayhem" were driving the bus, and they were being pulled
DS> over by a motorcycle cop. The "Doctor" starts using all the
DS> cliches for a police officer (cop, fuzz, man in blue,
DS> constabulary, etc.), and starts spelling out the derogatory term
DS> (pig), and Miss Piggy practically has a cow, screaming "Don't Say
DS> It!!"...and he meekly says "I wasn't going to...". :P
I wonder if Elsie and Elmer ever had a pig?
DS> And, I've never visited the Netherlands. <G>
BM> Proctology isn't for you. :)
DS> That's like the joke at the funeral of a long time, beloved cardiologist.
DS> There is a huge heart behind the casket. After the
DS> funeral is done, the heart opens up, the coffin rolls inside,
DS> and the heart closes, entombing the casket inside forever.
DS> Suddenly, one of the physicians busts out laughing. Everyone
DS> looks at him with scorn for his rudeness with his outburst. He
DS> apologizes, saying "I'm sorry. I was just thinking of my own
DS> funeral. I'm a gynecologist".
DS> The proctologist fainted dead away. <G>
Oh sure! Where was that one yesterday when I had my colonoscopy?!
