Yes, my not-too-impressive height increased quite markedly on average by coming to Labour'sLoveLostLand.

>While in ER, she was examined, x-rated and sent home.

May I assume she was also ultraviolated?

No, no, I'm sure she was treated with appropriate rectaltude!

Max Factor?

Reminds me of the story of the two waifs whom Matthew Brady found wandering around after Gettysburg. He asked them to pose for a picture to show the horrors of war from a child's viewpoint. As he disappeared under the black drape one of the little girls turned to the other and said, "What's he gonna do now?"

The other one, worldly wise for her 13 years, replied, "He's getting ready to focus."

The younger girl's eyes went wide: "Both of us?"

"He's getting ready to focus."

Ah, yes, this reminds me of the English fighter pilot during the Battle of Britain who radioed that he had just shot down two Fokkers. When asked about the types of Fokkers he had shot down, he replied that those two Fokkers were flying Messerschmitts.

Just found on a package of made in USA Beef Jerkey: (I love the stuff!)

EXPORT STATEMENT The meat contained herein is for personal use only and not for sale.

Not for sale???? Does that mean when they send it elsewhere, they give it away? If anyone has knowledge of a location to receive free beef jerkey, please let me know! It may just be worth the trip for the amount I buy!

Starting pitcher: John Smoltz (Braves)
Once burned his chest while ironing a shirt ... which he was still wearing.
