26. You actually remember why "Deep Throat" was important (no, not the movie... Well, OK, the movie, too!)

I'm 75% grown up, according to this...darn it.

What did it for me...

When I got into my STATION WAGON and went down to SEARS to buy a LAWN MOWER! I knew I was not a kid anymore.

I especially like #10.

What's wrong with you people in Mississippi, Wade? Friday funnies on Monday? OOOOOOOOOK!

Hey now! I resemble that remark...


Seriously though, Wade is just "precious" in the, true, Southern, sense of the word :)

This guy wants to be a proctologist, and he wants to
be a really good proctologist, so he decides to go down to the morgue
after class and practice a little. Well, he uncovers the first guy and
there is a cork in his butt! He thinks it's a little strange, so he
pulls it and music starts playing!

"...On the road again, just can't wait to get on the road again..."
The guy really freaks out! He runs and gets the M.A.
and drags the poor guy back to the table.

"Look!" he says, and pulls the cork out again.
"...On the road again..."

The M.A. is totally unimpressed... "So what?" he says.
"Isn't that the most amazing thing you've ever seen? "the guy asked,
"Are you kidding?" says the M.A.
"Any a@@hole can sing country music!"

I'd heard that one. It is important to remember that not just any a@@hole would want to.

I knew it was my last day as a beach goer when a cute little beach bunny ran up to me and said, "Gee Mr. Gray,your face gets so red when you try to hold your stomach in."

Joe Baker, who wishes like heck this WAS Friday...

A man standing in line at a check out counter of a grocery store was very surprised when a very attractive woman behind him said, "Hello!" Her face was beaming. He gave her that "who are you look," and couldn't remember ever having seen her before. Then, noticing his look, she figured she had made a mistake and apologized. "Look," she said "I'm really sorry but when I first saw you, I thought you were the father of one of my children, and walked out of the store. The guy was dumbfounded and thought to himself, "What the hell is the world coming to? Here is an attractive woman who can't keep track of who fathers her children! " Then he got a little panicky."I don't remember her," he thought but, MAYBE....during one of the wild parties he had been to when he was in college, perhaps he did father her child! He ran from the store and caught her in the parking lot and asked, "Are you the girl I met at a party in college and then we got really drunk and had wild crazy sex on the pool table in front of everyone?" "No", she said with a horrified look on her face. "I'm your son's secondgrade teacher!"

Makes you rethink some of those wild college parties...

Or just keep track of you children's teachers

A guy walks into a bar in Tennessee and orders a mudslide.
The bartender looks at the man and says, "You ain't from
'round here are ya?'
"No," replies the man, "I'm from Pennsylvania."
The bartender looks at him and says, "Well, what do
ya do in Pennsylvania?"
"I'm a taxidermist," said the man.
The bartender, looking very bewildered now, asks,
"What in the world is a tax-e-derm-ist?"
"The man says,"I mount animals."
The bartender stands back and hollers to the whole
bar..."It's okay boys, he's one of us!"

This couldn't possibly have taken place in Tennessee. I've been here for almost three years, and have yet to find any of the locals who don't have their taxidermist on speed dial -- in the single digits, no less! It's considered not so much a job as a calling -- you know, like a priest or a NASCAR driver.

I always heard it took place up north somewhere...

My favorite town name is Gnaw Bone, which is in Indiana. Southern Indiana, of course.

My other favorite is "Cut and Shoot, Texas", mebbe 60 miles north of Houston.

There's supposed to be a town name "It" in Mississippi. I've never been there, and online maps don't list it (they have Itta Betta, home town of B.B. King and Marion Barry)

My personal favorite is here

I have a neighbor that says she watches The Weather Channel for two to three hours a day. That's scary.

I'm not exactly young (For tuba4sissies: It was 35 years ago when I was in 10th grade and first made the Texas All-State Band.); but I still can't bring myself to watch The Weather Channel.

Mark wrote:I'm not exactly young but I still can't bring myself to watch The Weather Channel.

I watch long enough to catch the "locals on the 8s". Nax of 10 minutes, but I'll usually go back to where I was untill closer to the 8s, rather than watch while waiting for the locals.

Does that even count as "watching" ?
