    O I've got another good one. It's long. But it's good.

    Anyone out there watch the show Early Edition when it was on. This is how that pilot was pitched. Mr. Abrams sp? (he was a prof of mine for a summer program) stayed up the whole night before making a fake newspaper for the pitch. This all occurred during the OJ Simpson trial was going on. So he made the fake newspaper went into the pitch and laid it down on the table in front of the "big guys" and began telling the story. Halfway through the meeting one of the men notice and jump up with surprise. Then he sees the date and looks confused. "What would you do?" Abrams asked. "Look at page (whatever page it was). If you knew what was going to happen tomorrow would you try to change it?"

    Needless to say ... the show was picked up, made a success, then the star was in an episode of Grey's Anatomy.

    The rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd took their name from a high school teacher named Leonard Skinner who had suspended several students for having long hair.

    I have always wondered how they got their name... Hmmmmm!

    They should make a law for the guy teenagers here that wear their pants hanging "under" their A**.....

    Remember when we use to like to check a guy in their Levi's....OMG! Girls these days can't check out bootie....or maybe they can if the guy hikes up the extra-long shirt to reveal their boxers....Is this the style other places too?

    This style....It doesn't make sense to me.....:glasses:

    Yes it is. Luckily, I've noticed that less guys do it in college. I wanted to smack some of the kids in my high school. My grandma was an elementary school principal and would tie rope like a belt around their wastes. My brother does it now but I don't understand it. It makes them walk like they had an accident in their pants. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second.

    *snickers*

    Is that an African swallow or a European swallow?

    -George Washington was a pothead, and cultivator of cannabis, as shown in his letters to his garderner:

    "What was done with the seed saved from the India Hemp last summer? It ought, all of it, to have been sewn again; that not only a stock of seed sufficient for my own purposes might have been raised, but to have disseminated the seed to others; as it is more valuable than the common Hemp."

    George Washington
    Writings of Washington, Vol. 35, pg. 72, Library of Congress


    President Clinton TOO!.....he just didn't know how to properly use his produce....

    What about cigars??
