story about the time felonious monkey was in France at an economic summit with Blair and Chirac and he reportedly said to Blair "The problem with the French is that they don't have a word for "entrepreneur"" ! ! !

:rofl:

8. Give them points for pronunciation
:rofl:
I recently heard a man use the phrase and it sure sounded like Fox pass. What was even more frightening was that he was not speaking about the channel that spews lies and more lies.

20. What a god damned dummy
No doubt this idiot thinks he/she knows what he/she is talking about and will tell everyone, in a strident tone, what's what. My god I hate those people.

21. I make fopahs all the time, I just blame it on the dog.
Edited on Wed Feb-20-08 08:26 AM by TalkingDog
The candidates in question could avoid a LOT of embarrassment that way.

Besides, who doesn't love a dog?

Edited because I actually try to check my spelling....
