jceman 1 #1 July 29, 2006 Or A stupid question deserves an appropriate answer.... I was in Wal-Mart buying a large bag of Purina for my Labrador Retriever and was in line to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog. On impulse, I told her that no, I was starting The Purina Diet again, although I probably shouldn't because I'd ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms. I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry & that the food is nutritionally complete so I was going to try it again. I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line was by now enthralled with my story, particularly a tall guy behind her. Horrified, she asked if I'd been poisoned and was that why I was in the hospital. I said no.....I'd been sitting in the street licking my balls and a car hit me. I thought the tall guy was going to have to be carried out the door. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

Bolas 5 #12 July 29, 2006 Actually, some old people eat canned dog food to save money though. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLFKING 4 #13 July 29, 2006 That is too good. QuoteOr A stupid question deserves an appropriate answer.... I had just gotten off student status, and stopped by the grocery store on my way home from the DZ. The checkout guy looked at my skydiving t-shirt, and my grass-stained jeans, and asked "Do you jump?" I said, "Yes." He said, "How many jumps have you done?" I said, "About 35." He then asked "Do you enjoy it?" I thought for a second and said "No, not really. But a lot of my golfer friends started jumping, and now the only time I see them is when I visit them at the dropzone. I like riding in the plane with them, but every once in a while about 4 or 5 of them will jump me, pin me down, then strap a parachute on my back and throw me out of the plane." He had this horrified look on his face, until the checkout girl in the next aisle and the guy behind me busted out laughing. Don"When in doubt I whip it out, I got me a rock-and-roll band. It's a free-for-all." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
