A guy sticks his head into a barbershop and asks, "How long before I can get a haircut?" The barber looks around the shop and says, "About 2 hours." The guy leaves. A few days later the same guy sticks his head in the door and asks, "How long before I can get a haircut?" The barber looks around at shop full of customers and says, about 3 hours." The guy leaves. A week later the same guy sticks his head in the shop and asks, "How long before I can get a haircut?" The barber looks around the shop and says, "About an hour and half." The guy leaves. The barber looks over at a friend in the shop and says, "Hey, Bill, follow that guy and see where he goes. He keeps asking how long he has to wait for a haircut, but then doesn't come back." A little while later, Bill comes back into the shop, laughing hysterically. The barber asks, "Bill, where did he go when he left here?" Bill looks up, tears in his eyes and says, "Your house!" sudo

Hope, Re:"Make sure your kids aren't around." Sorry but I don't see the humor. I remember when I was in elementary and junior high school that we would all laugh at vulgar words. But when we grew up most of us realized that we laughed because we thought it was "naughty" but ultimately lower class. Hence the name "vulgar". sudo

Pirate, Re:"Now you can hear at least four of those words every week on "South Park." I watched South Park only one time and was pretty disgusted. I'd a thought you could hear every one of the seven. Call me a prude but the general level of vulgarity that surrounds us furthers the coarsening of our culture, IMO. And TWI encouraged the most vile language. Even the women used the "F" word with careless abandon. sudo [This message was edited by Sudo on June 19, 2002 at 9:04.]

Oh, but don't we have ourselves some potty mouths around here? Reading Ex's post made me think of this little ditty... the fact that it technically doesn't contain vulgarity is what makes it funny.. WHO IS JACK SCHITT??? The lineage is finally revealed. Many people are at a loss for a response when someone says "You don't know Jack Schitt!" Read on and you'll be able to handle the situation intelligently. Jack is the only son of Awe Schitt and O. Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O. Schitt, a partner of Kneedeep & Schitt, Inc. Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt, and the deeply religious couple begat 6 children: Holie Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Giva Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins, Deap Schitt and Dip Schitt. Against her parents' wishes, Deap Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school dropout. After 15 years of marriage, Jack & Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later married a Mr. Sherlock, and out of devotion to her children, decided to hyphenate her last name, and became Noe Schitt-Sherlock. Dip Schitt married a woman named Loda Dung, who became Loda Schitt. The couple produced a nervous son, Chicken Schitt. Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, inseperable thoughout childhood subsequently married the Happens brothers. The local newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens wedding, which was quite an event. The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Hoarse. Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He returned from his travels with his Italian bride, Piza Schitt. So, NOW if someone says "You don't know Jack Schitt", you can beg to differ. You not only know Jack Schitt, but the entire Schitt list! sudo

Suzie, Tell "old" George he has to come here in person to pick up his birthday greetings. I'll turn 50 in September and in some ways feel that George is like my twin in the way we feel about things. sudo
