How about bringing back real conservatives? Do you think we could?  Whose grave do we need to rob for the DNA? I vote for Thomas Paine. |

Do you think we could? Whose grave do we need to rob for the DNA? I will gladly be a donor. Sample could be rejected as being to the right of Genghis.  We'll be happy to accept you Ratty. Personally I have always thought there was a little "pinko" in Genghis's line. You and Thomas can debate the fine art of King baiting. |

Most people would have no idea how much practice it takes to play like that. |

Throughout the ages, humanity has been arrogant and self-centered enough to believe it had an effect on the earth’s climate.

This reminds me so much of a call from my wife I had to laugh. Any trip she makes to anywhere I get a call like that (and there is never anything wrong with the car). |

My wife came in, it was -7F so she wasn't happy anyways. YOUR pickup is IN the way! I can't get out and will get stuck if I try. I tried starting your pickup. It almost started but didn't. Honey, did you allow the intake heater to cycle? "I think so......it wouldn't start". (I had earlier offered to move it). Soooooooooo. I went out, surveyed the situation, hopped in the car and backed it out. (Does help to have studded snow tires on). She said a few choice words.......and left.

Have you ever wondered who first uttered the phrase "You've Gotta Be Kiddin' Me?"
Well, it just so happens to have originated through the Founding Father of USA, way back when
George Washington was crossing the Delaware River with his troops.
There were 33 in Washington's boat. It was extremely dark and storming furiously and the water was tossing them about.
Finally, Washington grabbed Corporal Cox and stationed him at the front of the boat with a lantern.
He ordered him to keep swinging it, so they could see where they were heading.
Corporal Cox, through driving rain and cold, continued swinging the lantern back and forth, back and forth.
Then a big gust of wind and a wave hit and threw Corporal Cox and his lantern into the Delaware.
Washington and his troops searched for nearly an hour trying to find Corporal Cox, but to no avail. All of them felt terrible, for the Corporal had been one of their favourites.
Sometime later, Washington and his troops landed on the other side, wet and totally exhausted.
He rallied the troops and told them that they must go on.
Another hour later, one of his men said "General, I see lights ahead".
They trudged toward the lights and came upon a huge house.
What they didn't know was that this was a house of ill repute, hidden in the forest to serve all who came.
General Washington pounded on the door, his men crowding around him. The door swung open, and much to his surprise stood a beautiful woman. A huge smile came across her face, to see so many men standing there.
Washington was the first to speak "Madam, I am General George Washington and these are my men. We are tired, wet, exhausted, and desperately need warmth and comfort".
Again, the Madam looked at all the men standing there, and with a broad smile on her face, said "Well, General, you have come to the right place. We can surely give you warmth and comfort. How many men do you have?"
Washington replied "Well, Madam, there are 32 of us without Cox".
And the Madam said "You gotta be kiddin' me!"

I immediately thought " I'll post that on FarceBook." Then I realised that few would appreciate it.

Whose grave do we need to rob for the DNA?
