This is classic FTW; challenging you to use your damn brain!

When I was about 12, I was in a group of "big guys" (must have been 16 and 17 year olds). One of the guys told this joke:

Q: What happened when the girl backed into the airplane propeller?

A: Disaster

Most of the guys laughed like crazy, and so did I, even though I had not the slightest idea what it meant.

I didn't get it until years later. Now I'm not so sure the other older guys got it at the time, either. Probably didn't want to confess to a brain freeze, just like me.

We will be removing the sticky from this topic at some point on Tuesday since everyone has had a chance to see it and post.  The thread will remain available on this board for reference or for additional comment if anyone so chooses.

I read that one too, and it cracked me up.... :biggrin:

On the Road - Jack Kerouac

The key to opening up a side of life I could never have imagined.

Now I can't imagine having lived my life without having read it.

Think I'll add it to my reading list.

I'm not understanding how faith in religion enhances sex and why it's being labled as "Christian" sex. Sex is sex and the hotter the better. IMHO. :wink:

I remember posting a joke I thought was hilarious, and Wolf wrote back that it was one of the funniest jokes he'd ever heard. Let's see if I can remember it.

A man was injured at work and was hospitalized. Was in terrible pain, according to his wife. After he was able to go home, he still had a lot of pain, which affected his every movement, but even so he managed to go to church one Sunday. His wife, the dear woman, got up and asked everybody to pray for him because he was in such terrible pain from injury to his scrotum that every movement caused pain, to the point he could not hug her or even hold his baby girl on his lap. There was dead silence -- and then he got up and slowly walked to the front of the church, turned around, and said, "My wife is mistaken. I didn't injure my scrotum. I broke my sternum."

I didn't know him but went back and read his posts that others had posted that he said. All funny!

And yet another gem from the man I also still desperately miss here:

Quote from: followsthewolf on January 11, 2013, 09:40:46 AM
No problem.

The only requirement you left out was that no registered republican can own any sharp object.

That, of course, does not apply to their brains. . . . .which, as everyone knows already, are never sharp objects and cannot be honed.

Strangely as relevant today as it was when he wrote it!  :biggrin:

Yeah, I miss the heck out of him.  He pm'd me quite often to make sure we were good with each other after a long day of quarreling.

He had a great heart! Was a first class act!

Indeed Hank. My signature line continues to pay him tribute, as do many of us here.  :yes:
