From an email... Once upon a time in a nice little forest, there lived an orphaned bunny and an orphaned snake. By a surprising coincidence, both were blind from birth. One day, the bunny was hopping through the forest, and the snake was slithering through the forest, when the bunny tripped over the snake and fell down. This, of course, knocked the snake about quite a bit. "Oh, my," said the bunny, "I'm terribly sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I've been blind since birth, so I can't see where I'm going. In fact, since I'm also an orphan, I don't even know what I am." "It's quite OK," replied the snake. "Actually, my story is much the same as yours. I, too, have been blind since birth, and also never knew my mother. Tell you what, maybe I could slither all over you, and work out what you are, so at least you'll have that going for you." "Oh, that would be wonderful" replied the bunny. So the snake slithered all over the bunny, and said, "Well, you're covered with soft fur, you have really long ears, your nose twitches, and you have a soft cottony tail. I'd say that you must be a bunny rabbit." "Oh, thank you! Thank you," cried the bunny, in obvious excitement. The bunny suggested to the snake, "Maybe I could feel you all over with my paw, and help you the same way that you've helped me." So the bunny felt the snake all over, and remarked, "Well, you're smooth and slippery, and you have a forked tongue, no backbone, and no balls. I'd say you must be French".
I skipped the entire story, looked at the last line, saw the word French and then quickly proceeded to do this.
Man, I know the French were spinless and nutless when they made sure we were a free country from the British.
Tell me about it. Back then, when I nailed notes on ye old ClutchHamlet message baord, I always had to remind people that the French would come, they were just running late. After the war, it was all good and my buddy T_J, Thomas Jefferson visited and brought back freedom fries. Apparantly, B-Frank, or Ben Franklin, told him about how good they were when he went over there to ask for their help.
Awesome!!!! B-Bob-- Thanks for the thoughts. The only drawback is that my ppd average is taking a beating.
Ref: If you'd be making up the ppd with more lame French jokes, it's just fine that you're posting less. That was pretty weak. Seriously, you're missed around here when you don't post. But big congratulations on the job. Settle in at work and post more if only to remind us that not all conservatives are Trader_Jorge.
