Translation ...

"I'm not interested." ... "Not at this point." That was John Murtha on that old abscam tape, with $50,000 in the balance. Translation: When I know you're not cops and this isn't a sting operation, then get back to me.

What are you going to believe?

Your own eyes or that map?

I think Rabbit said something similar in Pooh's Grand Adventure...

Unfortunately, I dug up a latitude reference to Windsor, Ontario and it was 42.3 degrees North. If the picture's off, it ain't off by much.

Darn.

Hmm...

I think that maps in classrooms must be stretched and skewed so that Canadians can win stupid bets.

I am not sure that I should believe a picture... For all I know, you photoshopped it.

I DID use Photoshop to draw the red line. But that's because I know where the 42nd parallel is.

See the link below. Read the last item "Point Pelee"

Yeah, but there was only ONE Jill St. John. Not only was she stunning, she's got an IQ of 160 or 170. Talk about dangerous...

Jill St. John once dated Henry Kissinger... now we know who the smoother lover was, but who was the more dangerous, Kissenger or Bond?

Lighten up!

I didn't think you used a crayon to draw the line...

It's impossible to lick your elbow.

No it's not. You just have to be a good friend first...

FWIW, I think it's an angora kitten, or some other kind of hit-in-the-face-with-a-shovel breed. Looks natural to me.

Henry Kissinger also dated Candace Bergan. Life ain't fair.

At Waffle House.

You've got to get your face up out of that steaming hot bowl of grits and back into real life!

Not necessarily, that is only your interpretation. In fact, you are now required to submit meet with the FR "Rewriting the Rules" Committee, chaired by Miss Beulah Bangsworth located in the third room down the hall to your left. Good luck with your elbow.

No. Did you that "Mayo" means "Plain of The Yew Trees"?

Waffle House is real life. All else is illusion.

No. Did you know that Casablanca was originally titled Everyone Comes to Rick's?

I thought it was 'Play it Again, Sam', til I found out that it is an actual misquote from the film!
