Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Class is now in session. The rules are simple; you get a grade if you use the WFTD in a sentence, haiku, limerick, or quatrain. You get a "+" if you make a link, or make the teacher laugh, or you offer the appropriate bribes. I hold the grade book, and the whip and chair.

BARBECUES should carry health warnings for releasing the same amount of toxic smoke as 220,000 cigarettes, it was claimed yesterday.

I knew this was coming, but actually seeing it in a headline was enough to make me hit something, anything, the bottle, for example . I told you they were going to come after other things!

Come to get your BBQ
When Hell is FROZEN!

BBQs are as 'bad as fags'

I made dentist sick by accident. I gave him some of my crow gumbo and then he kind of saw the Jamet Rhino pic I posted to Camle and he gave up the gumbo. I apologized but I think it was too late.

You know, it wasn't really the crow meat that threw me tummy into a twist... it was the remains of a Jim Beam from a previous evening's encounter.

Morning, all! Who locked this damn door?

The whining democrats ran away

To New Mexico, and threatened to stay

Their impudence will surely haunt them

When they find their voters no longer want them.
