Just escaped the 700 Club.

:woohoo:

To commemorate the occasion, here is something a friend overheard last weekend...

She & her husband were at a hibachi style Japanese restaurant & shared a table with a family of strangers. The other family said grace - loudly - and she heard them pray "Smite our enemies and increase our territories."

I have not been able to get that phrase out of my head ever since she told me that.

"Smite our enemies and increase our territories."

I kid you not.

Nothing new under the Sun. Read your history books. ;)

3. I still can't get over it.

My friend's husband is British, so these people asked him what he thought of Tony Blair. THEY (the enemy smiters) are big fans of Bush and Blair because they seem....

....wait for it.....

...approachable.

I guess that's the teetotaler's version of "I'd like to have a beer with him."

2. Congratulations! Here's something else to commemorate the occasion:

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the President his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, three Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

:evilgrin:

:hi:

4. I, for one, can never get enough of that joke.

I told it to my 12-year-old daughter. She had already heard it from her friend, who is from (just about) the only other Dem family in her school. She knew it was a joke, but after I told it, she looked shocked and said "He REALLY said that?!"

5. Thats funny!

The scary thing is that * might actually respond that way.
