Re: If you want a thread to die
Some Asshole looked at my beer belly in the pub last night
"Is that Budweiser or Pabst Blue Ribbon?"
"There's a tap underneath, taste it."
That's when the fight started
I was talking to a girl in the bar last night.
She said, "If you lost a few pounds, got a shave,
I said, "If I did that, I'd be talking to your friends overthere."
That's when the fight started
I went to the pub last night, had a shot of Ezra Brooks
and saw a fat chick dancing on a table.
I said to her, "Nice legs."
The girl giggled and said with a smile, "Do you really thinkso."
I said "Definitely, most tables would have collapsed by now."
That's when the fight started
I was telling a girl in the pub about my ability to guess what daya
woman was born just by feeling their breasts.
"Really" she said, "Go on then... try."
After about 30 seconds of fondling she began to lose patience.
"Come on, what day was I born"?
That'swhen the fight started

Re: If you want a thread to die
How Many Of TheseDo You Remember?
Candy cigarettes...
Wax Coke-shaped wax bottles with colored sugar water inside...
Soda pop machines that dispensed glass bottles...
Coffee shops with Table Side Jukeboxes...
Blackjack, Clove and Teaberry chewing gum...
Home milk delivery in glass bottles with cardboard stoppers...
Newsreels before the movie...
Telephone numbers with a word prefix...( Yukon 2-601). Party lines...
Peashooters...
Hi-Fi's & 45 RPM records...
78 RPM records...
Green Stamps...
Mimeograph paper...
The Fort Apache Play Set...
Do You Remember a Time When Decisions were made by going...
'eeny-meeny-miney-moe'?
Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming, 'Do Over!'?
'Race issue' meant arguing about who ran the fastest?
Catching The Fireflies Could Happily Occupy An Entire Evening?
It wasn't odd to have two or three 'Best
Friends'...
Having a Weapon in School meant being caught with a Slingshot?
Saturday morning cartoons weren't 30-minute commercials for action figures?
'Oly-oly-oxen-free' made perfect sense?
Spinning around, getting dizzy, and falling down was cause for giggles?
The Worst Embarrassment was being picked last for a team?
War was a card game?
Baseball cards in the spokes transformed any bike into a motorcycle?
Taking drugs meant orange flavored chewable aspirin?
Water balloons were the ultimate weapon?

Re: If you want a thread to die
Two medical studentswere walking along the street when they saw an old man
Walking with his legs spread apart. He was stiff-legged and walking slowly.
One student said to his friend: "I'm sure that poor old man has Peltry Syndrome.
Those people walk just like that."
The other student says: "No, I don't think so. The old mansurely has Zovitzki Syndrome.
He walks slowly and his legs are apart, just as we learned in class."
Since they couldn't agree they decided to ask the old man. They approached him
And one of the students said to him, "We're medical studentsand couldn't help but notice the way you walk, but we couldn't agree on thesyndrome you might have.
Could you tell us what it is?"
The old man said;"I'll tell you, but first you tell me what you two finemedical students think."
The first studentsaid, "I think it's Peltry Syndrome."
The old man said,"You thought - but you are wrong."
The other studentsaid, "I think you have Zovitzki Syndrome."
The old man said,"You thought - but you are wrong."
So they asked him,"Well, old timer, what do you have?"
The old man said,"I thought it was GAS - but I was wrong,"

Re: If you want a thread to die
Phil decided to go deer hunting before season opened. He went to his favorite bottoms, parked his pickup truck and waded deep into the woods with his favorite rifle. Sure enough, a young buck comes in range and Phil drops him. He goes over, picks up the deer, throws him over his right shoulder, puts his left arm through the strap on his rifle and began walking back to his truck. Just as he approached his truck out stepped a game warden, too close for Phil to take of running. Phil walks slowly toward the game warden who finally asks, " What's that on your shoulder?" Phil looks over to his left shoulder and looks back at the game warden, "My rifle."
The game warden replies, "the other shoulder." Phil slowly turns his head, looks over to the right , and jumps and yells "yeiiiiigh, git that thing off me!!!!"

Don't ever call Medicare for any help. They put you on hold for 20 minutes. Then, when someone answers, they say that isn't their department and they give you another number to call. Then, the process starts all over again!!

Re: If you want a thread to die
The room was full of pregnant women with their husbands.
The instructor said, "Ladies, remember that exercise is good for you.
Walking is especially beneficial. It strengthens the pelvic muscles and will make delivery that much easier.
Just pace yourself, make plenty of stops and try to stay on a soft surface like grass or a path."
"Gentlemen, remember -- you're in this together. It wouldn't hurt you to go walking with her. In fact, that shared experience would be good for you both."
The room suddenly became very quiet as the men absorbed this information.
After a few moments a man, name unknown, at the back of the room, slowly raised his hand.
"Yes?" said the Instructor.
"I was just wondering if it would be all right if she carries a golf bagwhile we walk?"
Brings a tear to your eye doesn't it? This kind of sensitivity just can't be taught.

HOW TO INSTALL A SOUTHERN HOME SECURITY SYSTEM
1. Go to a secondhand store and buy a pair of man's used size 14-16 work boots.
2. Place them on your front porch, along with a copy of Guns &Ammo Magazine
3. Put a few giant dog dishes next to the boots and magazines.
4. Leave a note on your door that reads:
Bubba,
Bertha, Duke, Slim, &I went for more ammo and beer. Be back in an hour.
Don't mess with the pit bulls; they attacked the mail man this morning and messedhim up bad. I don't think Killer took part, but it was hard to tell from allthe blood. Anyway, I locked all four of 'em in the house.
Better wait outside. Be right back.

Re: If you want a thread to die
1957 - Little Jimmy has a problem being attentive in class, makes bad grades. Mom calls the old country Doc who comes over for a visit. He asks all kinds of questions, observes Jimmy for a while, and promises to get back to Mommy soon. Four days pass and the old Doc comes by in the afternoon and leaves Mommy some literature about hyperactive children. Mommy takes the time to read through the literature, contacts the source and begins a strategy to get to the bottom of Jimmy's problem. After a few weeks, old Doc drops by to check on Jimmy, and has an informative conversation with Mommy confirming what she had learned. Jimmy quickly developed a keen ability of observation which led him to study things going on about him and determining cause/affect of a lot of events. He goes on to graduate from a technical college (with a "strong" C average) and into a 41 year work history in the chemical industry winning several awards for his outstanding achievements that resulted from his earlier found ability of problem solving and process improvements which had resulted in excellent successes for his work groups.
OR,
2013 - Jimmy is sent for evaluation. (the rest 70 has already presented in the last post). Results- Jimmy is still at home with Mommy who drives him to work each morning, picks him up in the afternoon from his "position" as warehouse custodian. Mommy has to keep tight reins on Jimmy because he isn't very dependable and has no confidence he can succeed at anything and seems to stay depressed from the medication which has already begun to develop induced hepatitis. Mommy is not aware of what is going on in his body. Her concern is about his suicidal tendencies.
(In the real 2013 - Thanks Mommy, and Dr.Trax)

Re: If you want a thread to die
DearCitizens,
Due to thecurrent financial situation caused by the slowdown in the economy, I, President Obama have decided to implement a scheme to put workers of 50 years of age and above on early retirement.
This scheme will be known as RAPE (Retire Aged People Early).
Persons selected to be RAPED can apply to Congress to be considered for the SHAFT scheme(Special Help After Forced Termination).
Persons who have been RAPED and SHAFTED will be reviewed under the SCREW program (SchemeCovering Retired-Early Workers).
A person may beRAPED once, SHAFTED twice and SCREWED as many times as I, President Obama deem appropriate.
Persons who have been RAPED could get AIDS (Additional Income for Dependants & Spouse) or HERPES (Half Earnings for Retired Personnel Early Severance).
Obviously persons who have AIDS or HERPES will not be SHAFTED or SCREWED any further by me, President Obama.
Persons who arenot RAPED and are staying on will receive as much SHIT (Special High IntensityTraining) as possible. I, President Obama have always prided myself on the amount of SHIT I give our citizens.
Should you feel that you do not receive enough SHIT, please bring this to the attention of your Congressman, who has been trained to give you all the SHIT you can handle.
Sincerely,
President Obama
PS - Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas and oil, as well as current market conditions, the Light at the End of the Tunnel has been turned off. :)

Re: If you want a thread to die
Cajun Angels
Gabriel came to the Lord and said, "I have to talk to you.
I have some Cajuns up here in Heaven who are causing some problems.
They are swinging on the pearly gates, sliding down the stairway to
Heaven, and my horn is missing!
They play their accordions and dance all night!
Crawfish shells and beer cans are all over the streets of gold and
they're making sausage, boudin, and cracklins on every corner.
There is rice all over the clouds! They have eaten almost every animal up
here! Some folks are walking around with one wing missing.
There is barbecue sauce all over their robes and some of them aren't even
wearing their halos, saying they won't wear it because it doesn't have an
LSU logo on it."
The Lord said, "I made them special, as I did you, my angel. Heaven is
home to all my children. If you really want to know about problems, let's
call the Devil and see how he is dealing with his Cajuns."
The Devil answered the phone, "Hello? Dang it, hold on!"
The Devil returned to the phone and said, "Hello God, what can I do for
you?"
God replied, "Tell me what kind of problems you are having down there
with the Cajuns you have there."
The Devil said, "Wait a minute," and puts the Lord on hold...
After 5 minutes he returned to the phone, and said, "Okay, I'm back.
What's the question?"
God asked again, "What kind of problems are you having with the Cajuns
down there?"
The Devil said, "Man, I don't believe this...Hold on, God.."
This time, the Devil was gone for 15 minutes. The Devil returned and
said, "I'm sorry, God, I can't talk right now. These coon asses have done put
out the fire and are holding a benefit jambalaya dinner to install air
conditioning!!"

Re: If you want a thread to die
On this day in 1942, Japanese Admiral Chuichi Nagumo, commander of the fleet that attacked Pearl Harbor, launches a raid on Midway Island with almost the entirety of the Japanese navy.
The American naval forces were depleted: The damaged carrier Yorktown had to be repaired in a mere three days, to be used along with the Enterprise and Hornet, all that was left in the way of aircraft carriers after the bombing at Pearl Harbor. Admiral's Nimitz and Spruance wouldn't give up. After several exchanges the results finally came. The attack on Midway was a disaster for the Japanese -lost 322 aircraft and 3,500 men, forced to withdraw without making a landing on the island.
Don't Ever Give UP!

Any of the motels out by the Natchitoches Exit off I-49 are good. As for a good breakfast....the I-Hop on I-49 at the Natchitoches Exit has some good food. If you want an evening meal...I would recommend- for seafood - Marriner's Restaurant, 5948 Hwy 1 Bypass (phone (318) 357-1220), for Mexican food- Nicky's Mexican Restaurant, 4108 University Parkway (phone (318) 352-1538, for a good burger, etc...- The Landing Restaurant, 530 Front Street (phone (318) 352-1579, and for steak- Trail Boss Steakhouse, 301 South Drive (phone (318) 352-2080.

Re: If you want a thread to die
D-Day, June 6, 1944, 69 years ago today. A generation that survived the great depression went out and defended the liberty of the nations in the face of an evil alliance that had taken life and liberty from many, and set most of them free. Those who were blessed to return worked hard to keep my generation from such challenges. Their number is ever shrinking. If you can find someone 88+ years old today, tell them thank you. Even better, take some time and inquire of them all their experiences they can share with you. You will not regret it if you truly value your freedom and want to know how blessed you are.

It seems like most of the early breakfast eaters in Natchitoches eat at McDonalds or Burger King. The only local breakfast place I would recommend would be Lasyone's Meat pie Restaurant. It is in downtown Natchitoches, 622 2nd Street, phone (318) 352-3353. However, they do not open til 7:00AM. If you leave early and are going through Alexandria, LA, it would be worth waiting the hour drive and eating breakfast at Lucille's Red Kettle Grill,3746 MacArthur Drive phone (318) 445-6642. It is a mom & pop restaurant and the food is excellent. They open at 5:00 AM and are open til 1:00PM. That sounds more like what you are wanting.

I have eaten there many times. Lucille told me if I left hungry, it was MY fault. When the waitress sees that you are almost finished eating, she will ask you if you want some more. If you say yes, you will be given more at no extra charge. The service there is great and the food is excellent and the cost is reasonable. I know you will enjoy it. I hope you have a safe trip. GO DAWGS!!!

Mine was one of the first to say Louisiana Tech University. But, my senior ring said Louisiana Polytechnic Institute .

Does your ring have the T in the stone?
Made the mistake of getting the white gold ring which was very popular then. Looks good with the blue stone. However, nowadays some people can't afford gold so they get steel and the white golds looks a lot like steel.

Even better, take some time and inquire of them all their experiences they can share with you. You will not regret it if you truly value your freedom and want to know how blessed you are.
Outstanding thoughts!

Nope, my finger got larger and I took it to Balfour dealer in Shreveport, LA about three years ago to have it sent in for resizing (no cost except for shipping). The Balfour company called me and said they would have to make a new ring for me (again at no cost). They wanted to know if I wanted LPI on it or LA TECH. I decided to go with LA TECH. I never did have anything put in the blue stone.

Re: If you want a thread to die
This probably belongs in the Alumni Section but hardly anyone posts there. When I graduated in May of 1969 they gave me a miniature of my dipolma and it had LIFE TIME MEMBER LOUISIANA TECH ALUMNI ASSOCIATION on the back. While I always considered payment of dues to be making me an "active" member they have this special section of the Alumni Association for lifetime members. I guess for making large donations. I consider myself a lifetime member whether I pay dues or not (I usually do). How late did they do this?

I got the same miniature diploma with lifetime member on the back when I graduated in November of 1970.

I think more people read this thread than the Alumni Section threads. Post here and you may get some answers.

No, we didn't. The executive order was made by the wife to eat a quick breakfast at the hotel, we stayed at the Hampton Inn which we were very happy with, then to drive down and eat at a small cafe in Breaux Bridge that she found on the internet. It was Cafe Des Amis on Bridge Street and if anyone is ever down that way I definitely recommend it. Its only 5 min south of I-10 so not at all out of the way. She did a great job finding it.

Good, I'll keep that in mind. Glad y'all had a safe trip. Sounds like your wife gets an "A" for the day!

Re: If you want a thread to die
All you season ticket holders and/or LTAC members need to purchase your Heart of Dallas game tickets before June17th when they go on sale to the general public. And yes, your ticket gets you into the Texas state fair at no additional cost. :)

Re: If you want a thread to die
On this day in 1987, in one of his most famous Cold War speeches, President Ronald Reagan challenges Soviet Leader Mikhail Gorbachev to "tear down" the Berlin Wall, a symbol of the repressive Communist era in a divided Germany.
Thanks Mr. President. Did that without being a pompous ass nor blaming someone else.:D
