 CH>  It is true. My grandfather and his two brothers made a big deal out
 CH> of celebrating their birthdays together every year. The youngest
 CH> brother (not one of the three with same birth date) is still alive btw.
 CH> He's 99 now and still driving! You know I could get in touch with him
 CH> and get the scoop on this for ya. :)

 JB> I was just getting a rise outa ya. Good for him! Good genes, eh?

 CH>  Some of the genes were good and some were not so good. Sicilian genes
 CH> are like that but then most are. Anywhere.
 CH> ..................................

I worked with a middle distance runner, that had the numbers to make
 the Olypics. He told me, *every* world, or Olympic record held up to
 400m, was held by Blacks, except for one Italian freak of
 nature. (HIS words: Not mine!)

My best bud is Italian too, and I guess I often call him a freak of
 nature too, so I guess you can quote *me* on that, too. 

 CH>  Oh alright thanks. I've never been able to make things up. MY
 CH> conscience bothers me too much. Anyway I did write to a cousin
 CH> (actually first cousin to my dad so that makes me a cousin once
 CH> removed)- about this and if he could give me any interesting stories
 CH> behind it to share.

 JB> And then you have to remember what you said to who, and if the spouse

 CH> Well people who make a career out of lying have a fascinating way of

 CH> with it they'll call you a liar and tell everybody about it. So best
 CH> to stay mum! That's how that works. That's how they survive so long.
 CH> Liars do. Centuries even.

 JB> Now... Don't go telling me there was a super-nova that night, and a
 JB> few really smart dudes dropped in for the event, burdened by MUCH too
 JB> much
 JB> perfume, incense, and Deblumes that they just *couldn't* take it back
 JB> with them on their steeds.

 CH>   hehe...  nope. I always feel sorry for my BIL so I send him a very
 CH> funny fun Birthday card and add to it "at least YOUR birthday is
 CH> verifiable! :) ...

 JB> Seeing as we had one transgression, I bought dad a card, where the
 JB>  office worker has stamped every flat surface with, f-it. Every wall,
 JB>  the clock... Inside it tells him. "Twenty-Eight, eh? F-that too!"

 JB> I hope I'm not offending anyone, but you'd have to know my dad to find
 JB>  it especially funny.


 CH>  He was 28 when you bought him that card? :) No worries  I've seen

No, but he was in a holding paturn at 27! 

 CH> cards that made me laugh but might seem offensive to others. We got my
 CH> hubbies dad a father's day card last year he relly did get a kick out
 CH> of. This due to the fact he's hd to clean the septic tank ..etc. (to
 CH> his experience with it)... it had a guy in a gas mask on the front
 CH> with something about farts.. I forget what it said but it was a hoot!

(-: The B-Day card for him this last year, had a man scolding a cat,
 for the obvious urin stain on the couch cushion. Inside, it says,
 "Wait 'til he finds what I left him in his slipper!"

 CH> ... Stoned people shouldn't throw glass in houses.

 JB>  That tag is SOOO yanked!

 CH>  You know I was thinking about that expression where one says
 CH> "...that is SOOOOOOOOOOOO..... *(something) like yanked or what is the
 CH> other verb or whatever it is more often used? As in "you are
soooo  "
 CH> taken. Or some other word like that. :)

No I don't know, Cindy. Could you be more specific? 

 CH> I like that tag line too. And the one : People who live in stone
 CH> houses should'nt throw glasses. (Yes the orig is the glass house/throw
 CH> stones).

 JB> egg is your brain on drugs. Moral: Don't smoke eggs!


 CH>  LOL! :) Good one! Love it. Taken! So! (Had to shorten it tho.)

That can happen with the variety of readers-pointing systems out
 there. I can often flaunt, as this one even lets me go up to eighty
 characters *without* the "..."


You know, this still brings up visions to me. "Joe, what on EARTH are
you doin' *up a palm tree*?"
