Happy 54th birthday, sionnsar.

Thanks... but my year of being 54 is wrapped up and in the history books. 8\;-)

"... to counter the leftist/progressive nincompoopishes arguments."

Should have used a comma after "leftist/progressive" to separate the 3 adjectives.

Let me correct it and tell me if it's still wrong.

First off I should not have made nincompoopish plural.

"... to counter the leftist/progressive, nincompoopish arguments."

All three adjectives, leftist/progressive and nincompoopish describe the noun arguments.

How does it look now?

Then someone had the bright ideas of omitting the artificialization with which he was growing his tomatoes, and go back to the way tomatoes used to be grown, but he couldn't call them tomatoes since they had no pesticides. So he decided to call them organic tomatoes and charge double the price, the nitwit.

No nitwit there! A liberal and her money are soon parted.

(But usually not soon enough.)

"but rules is rules"

Should that be, "rules ARE rules"? :) Unless you're using "rules" as a collective noun.

[NicknamedBob]

Perfect! Don't change a thing!

[baubau]

Darn it!

Shouldn't that be, "rules ARE rules"? :) Unless you're using "rules" as a collective noun.

[sionnsar]

You must be getting that old timers syndrome... You know where you can remember things so well.... I forget what it is called...

They have a syndrome for that? I pray thee, tell!

[baubau]

Hey thanks.

I'm still learning the English language.

[NicknamedBob]

Yes, it should be "rules are rules."

I was misquoting the TV commercial, "parts is parts." The customer wanted to know what chicken parts were used. "Parts is parts" was the unappetizing answer.

No nitwit there! A liberal and her money are soon parted.

Tisk tisk.....A liberal is almost always parted with someone else's money....

BTW, Belated Happy Birthday! I'd play you the birthday song on my bugle mouthpiece, but I haven't figured out how to properly play different notes. Besides, I've found that when practicing with my mouthpiece, everything immediately in front of it gets wet...

[baubau]

The squires have their own retreat.

[fanfan]

I don't belong here.

I don't understand grammar.

:-(

[NicknamedBob]

"I'm still learning the English language."

This is a good place to do it. I was using the vernacular as a way of sounding less officious.

[NicknamedBob]

"I don't belong here. I don't understand grammar."

Whassamatter? Is she French-Canadian?

[Tax-chick]

That would seem to be no fun for your wife. Maybe she'd like a nice photograph of Pope Benedict?

FEMALE PRAYER
Before I lay me down to sleep,
I pray for a man, who's not a creep,
One who's handsome, smart and strong
One who loves to listen long,
One who thinks before he speaks,
One who'll call, not wait for weeks.
I pray he's gainfully employed,
When I spend his cash, won't be annoyed.
Pulls out my chair and opens my door,
Massages my back and begs to do more.
Oh! Send me a man who'll make love to my mind,
Knows what to answer to "how big is my behind?"
I pray that this man will love me to no end,
And always be my very best friend.
Amen.

MALE PRAYER
I pray for a deaf-mute nymphomaniac with huge boobs
who owns a liquor store and a bass boat. This
doesn't rhyme and I don't give a sh...
Amen.

[fanfan]

She who?

[NicknamedBob]

I was reading Ambrose Bierce's "The Devil's Dictionary". His definition for "Man" caught my eye and I thought of you.

Man
n. An animal so lost in rapturous contemplation of what he thinks he is as to overlook what he indubitably ought to be. His chief occupation is extermination of other animals and his own species, which, however, multiplies with such insistent rapidity as to infest the whole habitable earth and Canada.

[rottndog]

Hey hey....

I resemble that....
