would you lick the person above you on the forehead?

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack.

"Miss Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday."

Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager.

Patty explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral.

The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.

Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and disappears into a back office.

She finds the manager and says, "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000, and he wants to use this as collateral."

She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what in the world is this?"

The bank manager looks back at her and says...

"It's a knickknack, Patty Whack. Give the frog a loan, His old man's a Rolling Stone."

oh , i saw your profile and photos & your beautiful children

I have kids close in age to you & from a Mom's perspective

i just wanted to say "i love you" even though i don't know you

No one should have to go for long without hearing " i love you "



Lots of Love for all those who feel lonely, sad & feeling < kind of left out >

you dont beat a dead horse, you make glue and dog food with it

I have a better idea, lets defend the mans right to smoke and fly the flag whatever way he chooses. I know this guy that right now has a flag as a couch cover, and some of his friends have suggested it disrespectful to sit or lay down on the flag, but they didn't call the cops.

He told them that it was a free country and he didn't see it that way. He loves the flag an likes having it where it is.

I am just an aquaintence, but I didn't have a problem with it, but did notice it, hard not to, you don't often see it used that way.

It seems if you are going to fight for freedom of expression you fight for everyone's expression not just one's own. no?

I have an idea!

Let's defend to the death another person's right to fly the flag upside-down, but let's ban him from smoking a cigarette.

Just or the record, i think there are MANY, MANY intelligent men and women on here. Whether they promote that in themselves is quite another thing.

I am sure you didn't mean to suggest that people that smoke are stupid? I am educated and I smoke, and I am fully aware of the risks. I know the risks of living too, and I still choose to live.

I find it a bit ironic that soldiers face an immediate enemy, risking their lives, yet can't smoke to relieve the stress?

Oh well the military is all about control, so I guess it fits the profile to control that too.

maybe Obama should just end the dam war,.

I found this recipe in the archives of "Gourmet" It shows how things change over time.

Begin Quote:

After skinning the lizard, dress and cut up the meat. Marinate it in sour orange juice, or in sweet orange juice acidulated with lemon juice. Add 1 teaspoon whole peppers and a dash nutmeg. After 3 hours, drain and wipe the meat dry. Season with salt, dip in beaten egg and in fine bread crumbs, and fry in deep, hot fat. Or it may be sautéed butter until it is brown and tender.


This exclusive recipe is pulled directly from Gourmet's archive. It has not been re-tested by our food editors since it was published in the magazine, but it's a pretty good indication of the kinds of things we once cooked—and ate—with great pleasure.

Nirvana?
