Ya know what that reminded me of...? I learned too late that there's an old saying, "Never hang wallpaper with a spouse!" I did THAT just once, too. In an instant, the now-former-missus-Hardpan transformed from Nurse Jekyll to Ms Hyde... I lasted maybe five minutes, then remembered an urgent commitment elsewhere. Boy, was I lucky to escape! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems there were a bunch of "cowboys" haranguing about rules interpretations and such, and a few of 'em were becoming real pills. (And as we all know, a "pill" is something hard to take! ) Sooo.... I posted a short message, Introducing Marshall Turk, and proposing the formation of a new sub-group in SASS ~ the Grand Old Brotherhood of Bunkhouse Lawyers, Esq, or G.O.B.B.L.E. Marshall Turk was to be the official Spokesturkey and mascot of the organization. Somehow I don't think the windbags appreciated it, but they at least shut up for a short spell. Well then how's this one: 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've heard them call John Waynes, so I suppose it could be some kind of Pilgrim thing, but it was three days before Thanksgiving, and Pilgrim was kind of a stretch, and I still didn't get it. So help a fellow out here. Why is that funny? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was thinking it’s more like when wine makers tell you wine every day is good for you. Or I know since they have legalized weed here in Mi allot of people claim it cures everything.
