Lame, Biff, very lame.
HMPMH!
again mr.B doesn’t pick my house as Open House pick!
geesh! – what gives?
Two hundred and fortieth!
Is it time for big hair pics yet?
I may have had you beat in that category BRG. I’ll show you mine if you show me yours?
Honestly, I’d have to find them, scan them and post them somehow. Maybe I won’t show you mine.
I think that everyone who works in a “service” capacity should have one.
I disagree – there are no lame personal blogs, only lame personal blog posts.
I would show you mine except that you would probably think that it was lame…
chicken…we’ve come completely full circle now since being “First” got called out as being lame. There is nothing more lame than a personal blog. That said. my masseur, Manuel, has one (with pics).
OK, back to your corners, THL and benson and take a deep breath. Meanwhile, Thursday night, I expect to hear the two of you in harmony on this (it’s a bit dated but always apropos in Brooklyn) (I know I’m gonna get in serious trouble for this):
Oh, the white folks hate the black folks
And the black folks hate the white folks
To hate all but the right folks
Is an old established rule
But during National Brotherhood Week
National Brotherhood Week
Lena Horne and Sheriff Clark [that’s the dated part–ed.]
Are dancing cheek to cheek
It’s fun to eulogize
The people you despise
As long as you don’t let ’em in your school
Oh, the poor folks hate the rich folks
And the rich folks hate the poor folks
All of my folks hate all of your folks
It’s American as apple pie
But during National Brotherhood Week
National Brotherhood Week
New Yorkers love the Puerto Ricans
‘Cause it’s very chic
Step up and shake the hand
Of someone you can’t stand
You can tolerate him if you try
Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics
And the Catholics hate the Protestants
And the Hindus hate the Moslems
And everybody hates the Jews
But during National Brotherhood Week
National Brotherhood Week
It’s National Everyone-Smile-At-
One-Another-hood Week
Be nice to people who
Are inferior to you
It’s only for a week, so have no fear
Be grateful that it doesn’t last all year!
You know what Benson. You’re just as bad a PropJoe.
Anyone who knows me know I’m the furthest thing from racist you can get. I was in my mind stereotyping the 80’s. I was thinking back to my years of watching every woman who got one gray hair die their hair blue black or platnium blonde. Or every macho guy drive a Camaro, or every woman who HAD to have big long fake nails.
You want to take certain things I’ve said and try to paint a a racist go ahead. My husband is the only one I need to answer to on this subject.
I think we all though better of you, at least I did. Now I know better. Go choke on a Canolli, pig!
I’m now so looking forward the big giant Italian anniversary dinner we’re going to be having tonight. Thanks for putting such a great taste in mouth.
