Guess what ...?

I called the Howie Carr show this afternoon, to rant about illegal immigrants (something that really rankles with Howie).

So I get through and I start bitching, in my usual non-stop fashion, about how I'm a naturalized citizen who went through all the legal paths, etc., etc. I swear, Howie was agrier than I. :biggrin: Anyway, after we'd both had our copious saying, Howie declares me Caller of the Week. And there's a prize involved, of course. A $75.00 gift certificate to dine somewhere in the heart of Boston.

Well, trust my luck. WE JUST GOT BACK FROM BOSTON! We went there for the Memorial Day weekend. Isn't that just like me? I tried to explain to the receptionist that I had been to Boston that weekend and that I was not going back, seeing as how I was moving to the West.

She said it didn't matter and insisted on giving it to me. So I gave her hubby's work address and told him that when he got the gift certificate, he should raffle it among his co-workers.

This has little or anything to do with illegal immigration - except for the fact that I was bitching against it - but I thought I'd share it with you as a sort of a joke.

Things that only happen to me. :rolleyes:

You can:

1) Go to work, call all the liberals into one room and tell them that:
a) The first one to apologize for holding retarded political views get's it...
b) Or hand it to the one fellow or gal that looks like an illegal (maybe bring them in off the street) in front of the liberals...

2) Give it to Doc Doom, is he not in Mass?

2) Give it to Doc Doom, is he not in Mass?

Yes but he only eats Liberals!!

[Rhino]

He eats trolls too.

[maxparrish]

Yes but he only eats Liberals!! Oh, just like the Rotwl'r I am looking for.

[The_Elucidator]

He eats trolls too.

My bust, I forgot about Lent!

2) Give it to Doc Doom, is he not in Mass?Yep, but in the western end that, to Bahstinites, might as well be Lower Slobovia.

IAC, I refuse to go back there. Anyplace where I have to pahk my cah because the letter "R" (for Republican) is illegal is not where I want to be. 'Sides, the last time I went there, it took three months to get rid of the liberal cooties.

Black Flag makes a Liberal spray, of course its petroleum based... :rotflmbo:

Doc,
YOU know about Slobovia???

My (late) father was such a jokester/prankster .... when I was a child he used to make up wild stories and get me to go to school and ask my teachers about them. One of his particular favorites (which got me REAL good) was about the Great Slobovian Chicken. He spun the tale so well, I fell for it completely ... even drew a picture of it and took it to school for show and tell. I was a laughing stock ... which thoroughly tickled my dad.

Anyhoo -- thanks Doc, for bringing up that wonderful memory of my Dad!
Blessings,
Hms


I now return you to your regularly scheduled thread, :smirky:

Anyone who remembers Li'l Abner (http://www.lil-abner.com/) knows about Lower Slobovia (http://www.lil-abner.com/slobovia.html), the realm of King Nogoodnik, and the only place in the world poorer and more dismal than Dogpatch.

Funny story, Maggie...:thumb:

Hey! I remember Lil' Abner, too.

Sis, that was a sweet story.

Yes, my friends. We're getting ready to leave Commie Maine. We're out of here on Wed May 6th.

Can't wait to start the adventurous trip. We're going by train. LOVE travelling by choo-choo. ;)

We've been living in a hotel, out of a suitcase for a couple of weeks now. Monday is my last day at work. I can't tell you how hard it is for me to keep my mind on my work.

Uhh, look. I strayed from the topic, too. :) Bah, not much to add to that anyway.

LOL. Love it! Liberals are so addicted to freebies, they might actually recant their idiotic political views ... temporarily, at any rate.

b) Or hand it to the one fellow or gal that looks like an illegal (maybe bring them in off the street) in front of the liberals...

Hmmm, no, I don't think so. Liberals are too stupid to "get" ironies. They'll think I became a bleeding-heart cretin, like them. :eek: I have a reputation to think of. ;)

You mean JUNE 6 doncha? :D

[Maggie_T]

That's exactly what I meant ... but I failed to say. :blush:
