"Attach it to what?"

. . .the shoulder bone? :^). . .or was it the neck bone. . . :^(

Well, at least we know 'Wilson' didn't have dandruff ;0)

the decision making process

one fisherman "ok, lets flip this thing.... heads, we stay

and fish, tails we go to shore first"

other fisherman "i call heads"

[NYer]

here come the nail jokes.

On the contrary. To associate those letters with a decapitated head goes beyond disrespectful.

Imagine being tied to a pole and whipped more than 100 times until your skin was in shreds. Then having your arms tied to a 100 lb crossbeam that scrapes against your fresh wounds. Imagine falling under that weight and having people spit on you and soldiers whip you some more. And, imagine having nails driven through your wrists and feet before being raised upright to die. In order to breathe, you must press your weight down on your pierced feet in order to elevate your body enough to expand your rib cage to suck in some air. Imagine your mother standing below, looking up at you, in utter helplessness.

INRI - Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews.

I don't ask you to believe; I ask you to have some respect for those of us who do.

Good thing Bill Clinton wasn't on board!

It would have been more than a couple of hours before he came in.

...ya know how the slime-ball likes his "Head"

...can't believe this is the 1st Clinton joke. Your turn!

[MacDorcha]

i didntknow that... hmmm yes, im being serious here, i thought the "here come the nail jokes" was refering to puns on the word "head" and its obvious affiliation with the post. my ignorance of INRI i appologize for, im a believer too, i just want it known my jokes are not to be made about crucifixtion

Reminds me of a fable I've always tried to live by:

A boy loved to play soccer with the other kids in the neighborhood. One day the ball rolls into the street and he runs after it only to be struck by a passing truck. After a miraculous surgery the boy survives but only his head remains. Each day his mother sat him on the windowsill to watch the others play. One day he persuades one of his pals to take him off the sill a lay him on the ground in front of the goal so he can play goalkeeper. In the excitement of play the boy is kicked into the street only to be flattened and killed. The moral of the story? Quit while you are still a head.

[MacDorcha]

oh, i was goin to say that the sailors must appreciate a little head now and again, Clinton jokes work too though

[Khepera]

All I gots a nanner!

Was there another way what I said could have been taken? Now I'm confused...

[stainlessbanner]

What kinda lure was he using?

[MacDorcha]

the nail joke... it was purely about nails... someone posted about Jesus, and i didnt see it, i was stating that was not posting after them

[JMJ333]

I am glad to know you! You're such a warrior! =)

[Chad Fairbanks]

Hmmm... oh well, I aint gonna sweat it if I inadvertently offended someone... they'll get over it eventually... or not... :0)

[MacDorcha]

do you think maybe it was fated for them to find the head out there? or did they just happen to be-headed in the right direction?

[MacDorcha]

Orihuela said. "We're just looking into it right now.''

now THAT'S sick

[Born in a Rage]

I think maybe these fishermen are into playing head games....strange bunch of folks.

[Born in a Rage]

or did they just happen to be-headed in the right direction?

Either way, they probably got a head start....

[MacDorcha]

all of the other fishers... used to laugh and call him names, then never let poor bo-ob... play in any of their head games.....
