Slappie 9 #1 September 21, 2001 While visiting England, George Bush is invited to tea with the Queen. Heasks her what her leadership philosophy is. She says that it is to surroundherself with intelligent people.He asks how she knows if they're intelligent. "I do so by asking them theright questions," says the Queen. "Allow me to demonstrate."She phones Tony Blair and says, "Mr. Prime Minister. Please answer thisquestion: Your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and thischild is not your brother or sister. Who is it?" Tony Blair responds,"It's me, ma'am.""Correct. Thank you and good-bye, sir," says the Queen. She hangs up andsays, "Did you get that, Mr. Bush?" "Yes ma'am. Thanks a lot. I'lldefinitely be using that!"Upon returning to Washington, he decides he'd better put the Chairman ofthe Senate Foreign Relations Committee to the test. He summons Jesse Helmsto the White House and says, "Senator Helms, I wonder if you can answer aquestion for me.""Why, of course, sir. What's on your mind?" "Uhh, your mother has a child,and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or yoursister. Who is it?" Helms hems and haws and finally asks, "Can I thinkabout it and get back to you?" Bush agrees, and Helms leaves.Helms immediately calls a meeting of other senior Republican senators, andthey puzzle over the question for several hours, but nobody can come upwith an answer. Finally, in desperation, Helms calls Colin Powell at theState Department and explains his problem."Now lookee here, son, your mother has a child, and your father has achild, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?"Powell answers immediately, "It's me, of course, you dumb cracker."Much relieved, Helms rushes back to the White House and exclaims, "I knowthe answer, sir! I know who it is! It's Colin Powell!"And Bush replies in disgust, "Wrong, it's Tony Blair."My New Website with 24hr Chat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slappie 9 #3 September 21, 2001 A nun was sitting with her Mother Superior chatting. "I usedsome horrible language this week and feel absolutely terrible about it.""When did you use this awful language?" asks the elder."Well, I was golfing and hit an incredible drive that looked like it wasgoing to go over 280 yards, but it struck a phone line that is hanging overthe fairway and fell straight down to the ground after going only about 100yards.""Is that when you swore?" "No, Mother," says the nun. "After that, asquirrel ran out of the bushes and grabbed my ball in its mouth and beganto run away.""Is THAT when you swore?" asks the Mother Superior again."Well, no." says the nun. "You see, as the squirrel was running, an eaglecame down out of the sky, grabbed the squirrel in his talons and began tofly away!""Is THAT when you swore?" asks the amazed elder nun."No, not yet. As the eagle carried the squirrel away in its claws, it flewnear the green and the squirrel dropped my ball.""Did you swear THEN?" asked Mother Superior, becoming impatient."No, because the ball fell on a big rock, bounced over the sand trap,rolled onto the green, and stopped about six inches from the hole."The two nuns were silent for a moment. Then Mother Superior sighed andsaid, "You missed the FUCKING putt, didn't you!"My New Website with 24hr Chat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slappie 9 #6 September 21, 2001 Dear Tide,I'm writing to you to say what an excellent product you have. I've used itsince my college days, when my mom told me it was the best.In fact, about a month ago, while at my girlfriends house, I spilled somered wine on my new white shirt. She started to berate me about my drinkingproblem. One thing lead to another and I had a lot of her blood on my whiteshirt, as well. I tried to get the stain out using her bargain detergent,but it wouldn't come out.On my way home, I stopped and got a bottle of liquid Tide and all of thestains came out. So well, in fact, that the DNA tests where negative!!!!.I thank you, once again, for a great product. I now have to write a letterto the Hefty bag people.Yours truly,Gary ConditMy New Website with 24hr Chat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kris 0 #9 September 24, 2001 Quote Dear Tide, Which reminds me of the button I have affixed to my gear bag:"Commercials show you how detergents take out bloodstains. If you've got a t-shirt with bloodstains all over it, maybe laundry isn't your biggest problem..."Kris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
