what do you know -- the president's name in 1950 was probably Bill Clinton, same as now.

-- helen (sstaten@fullnet.net), October 25, 1999.

Well, this post confirms what we have always known. Andy, you are just a little no-life weenie wanker that couldnt carry Ken Deckers J-strap. Stick to your normal goldbug postings, you are in way over your head. Simpleton!

oooooooh Bitch :)

Sub plot :

this post is designed to draw out and annoy the F##k out of the usual suspects (you know who you are) and I see it is working a treat.

UP YOURS TROLLS

ha ha ha

-- Andy (2000EOD@prodigy.net), October 25, 1999.


Well, just to put our resident Cray-Brain Downstreamer and his Troll friends out of their misery, here are the answers...

1. Yes, they just don't have it as a national holiday.

2. One, the day s/he is born.

3. All of them ( 12 months. )

4. The beggar is her sister.

5. He can't be buried if he isn't dead. Pay attention!

6. 6 outs, 3 outs per team.

7. No. A woman can't be a 'widow' if her husband isn't dead. If he's dead, he can't marry!

8. They aren't playing each other!

9. 70. Did get it? Do the math again. You'll get it.

10. White. In order to have all Southern exposure walls, the house must be at the North Pole, so it is a polar bear.

11. 2 apples. YOU took the two away, remember?

12. 50 cent piece and a nickel. ( The 'other' one is a nickel. )

13. The match, of course.

14. Half way. Then he is running out of the woods.

15. 1 Hour; 1 pill now, 1 pill 30 min from now, and 1 pill one hour from now.

16. 9, as in "all but 9..." Were you paying attention?

17. None - Noah took them on the ark, not Moses. Missed your Bible studies?

18. Meat. The butcher weighs meat. Gotcha.

19. 12, of course. There are 12 of *anything* in a dozen.

20. Same as it is now: Bill Clinton.

-- Andy (2000EOD@prodigy.net), October 25, 1999.



Hmmmm....when did William Jefferson Blythe change his last name to Clinton? I thought it was after 1950.
