Barry,

 BM> They probably are thinking "caress, tickles... That barely a start!".

  They can get rather cheeky with that. :P

 BM> Saw this the other night:  Eve to Adam - "Have you been cheating on me?
 BM> Let me check your ribs!".

  Or the one where The Lord told Adam that He had given him all this stuff,
and asked what else He could do for him.

  Adam wanted a helpmeet, to keep him company, to cook, to keep the areas
clean, etc. The Lord told him "That's going to cost you an arm and a leg".
Adam said "Lord, I can't afford that. How much can I get for one rib??". <G>

 BM> But it makes for good news copy when there is a stalement and the
 BM> deadline is days, now hours away!!  And so-and-so breaks the deadlock
 BM> -- what a hero (and so gets re-elected so the same thing can happen).

  These people say "throw the bums out", but they vote them back in.

 BM> Should have had the coffee: boiling water takes contaminates out.  (Not
 BM> necessarily all, but to a survivable level.)

  JavaScript - instructions on how to make coffee.

 BM> Now we're back to that kink stuff at the top!

  It's Nether Mood Monday. <G>

 BM> Initially "the horror!" but then one has to think of the changing value
 BM> of the dollar: people are earningmore dollars per hour, so more dollars
 BM> to spend ...on what used to be a dollar hamburger. <sigh>

  I remember when gasoline was under 25 cents a gallon.

 BM> Right.  Theoretically want one extra person at all times so the
 BM> customer who just came in doesn't have to wait for somebody.

  The word "Service" used to mean something -- Customer Service, Postal
Service, Internal Revenue Service, etc.

  Well, I heard two farmers talking the other day. One had to get a bull
to Service his cows.

  BINGO!! The light came on!! (no wonder my butt hurts so much) <G>.

 BM> Good grief: first it was footballs, now pennies......

  A penny for your thoughts, my friend. ;)

 BM> If they really don't wantit to bend put a steel plate in the envelope!!

  They'd probably return it for insufficient postage.

 BM> Theel that to someone living in the desert!

  You have a point there.
