Got this in a email, not exactly what you are looking for.........BUT....... You know sometimes I get the sudden urge to run around naked. But then I just drink some Windex. It keeps me from streaking. Marriage changes passion...suddenly you're in bed with a relative! If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal? I don't approve of political jokes...I've seen too many of them get elected! I love being married. It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life. I am a nobody, and nobody is perfect; therefore I am perfect. Everyday I beat my own previous record for number of consecutive days I've stayed alive. Bob

No room to swing a cat. This refers to the old naval punishment of being lashed with a cat-o-nine tails. Not much room 'tween decks hence...no room to swing a cat. Mick. An anotomical juxta position of two ordaclaris oris muscles, (or something that sounds like that !!), in the state of contraction, is.............wait for it............................a kiss. Mick....A mind ful of useless information.

According to every site about Clint Eastwood I have looked at, Clint Eastwood's father was Clint Eastwood Sr, NOT Stan Laurel, although they all mention the popular myth. Sorry... Liz

Lipstick and shoe polish are the same chemical, just with different flavouring and colourant.

aibohphobia is the fear of palindromes - the word itself is a palindrome !
