I haven't done that in a while - I need to do that again. :-)

I like to ask people, "you ever been inside a Turkish prison?" Easier
to get away with than a 50 year old overweight guy asking someone if
they've seen a grown man naked... And I won't even start about Scraps...

Nice. :-) My favorite was the guy reading the paper in the his easy chair
and his wife is looking out the living room window. Pianos are falling 
from the sky. Caption - "Boy I'd hate to be outside today!"

 DS> 3) The cow cooking over the barbeque grill, and he says "You know, I

 DS> You're sick!!".

 DS> 4) The cow reciting "poetry", with the last lines of
"DAMN THE ELECTRIC

 DS> 5) A sign above the door of a building, noting "School For The

 DS> the car, but instead of saying "Tickets, Please"...he's
saying "Ticks.

 DS> 7) The deer with a bullseye target on his chest, and the other deer

LOL - thanks for the laughs! Most of those I remembered seeing, but not
all, and even the ones that I did remember I still chuckled at. :-)
