Cultures & Groups - 16 December 2007

An Englishwoman and her young son were travelling in a taxi in New York. As they were driving through a rather seedy looking part of town, the boy became fascinated by the garishly made up women in short skirts and high heels who seemed to be accosting some of the men passing by.

"Mummy" the boy asked, "what are those ladies doing?"

The mother, clearly embarassed by the question, replied: "I expect they're lost and are asking people for directions"

The taxi driver overhead this and interrupted: "why not tell me boy the truth, those women are prostitutes."

The mother blushed more brightly at this remark but the boy wouldn't let it go:

"What are prostitutes Mummy, are they like other women, do they have children too?"

"Of course" the mother replied, "that's where New York taxi drivers come from."

The 3 spirits you have contact with are gin, vodka and bourbon.
Christmas Dinner is Reindeer meat, a six pack of beer and a cheese log.
You climb on the roof and shoot carolers in the butt with a BB gun.
Your fireplace has a bear trap in it. You're sitting in the recliner eating milk and cookies...waiting.
The Christmas trees from the corner lot have disappeared. You have a new huge wood pile out back and a nice fire burning in the fireplace.
Your standard response is "And Happy Holidays to you too, you jerk."
Two Words: Tinsel Rash.
You catch yourself humming "All I Want For Christmas is Your 2 Front Teeth."
A child comes to your door collecting for charity. You tell him to get a real job, hand him a smoke and shut the door.
You're busted for running through town wearing nothing but mistletoe.

Then people in wheelchairs wouldn't need special ramps and such to reach the sink or the top of the stove? Wouldn't it be more practical?

It doesn't watch anything? It doesn't tell time? And it really isn't a cap at all, more like a stretchy head covering for your ears to stay warm in winter?

College daughter has moved back home and we love to watch funny movies together. What are some of the funniest (rentable) movies that you have seen in the last 5-10 years?Not slapstick, not childish, not animated.
Oh yeah I should say we do NOT watch "R" rated movies.
Two of my favorites are "Bandits" and "Unconditional Love" if you haven't seen those they are Hilarious!!

More conservative, more liberal or stayed the same as in your 20's?
Statistics say that women start out conservative and become more liberal, while men start out liberal and become more conservative.

That made you laugh out loud even though there was no one else around?
I remember reading a book that had a story in it about this 86 year old guy who was arrested chasing a 90 year old naked guy carrying his clothes through Hyde Park in England. The 86 year old was carrying a blunderbuss when arrested. It seems he came home and caught the 90 year old in bed with his 82 year old wife!

If so, where are they? I never see any in California. Just those pesky small crows? And once in a while some tiny blackbirds, but no ravens. Why is that?
