The weirdest thing, Whacky et al, is that my mother actually told me how funny she thought this one was.
And usually she can't stand what she calls the "short, stupid ones".

Too late, Strat ... he already left.
Though not without imparting a bit of "wisdom". It was the single most bizarre conversation I've ever had.
Now, I don't know whether to be horrified or mortified.

Just tell him it's a new topical treatment for
erectile dysfunction. Not only will he not know what topical is, he won't know dysfunction either. So you will have completely petrified the poor old bastard both with a swift roundhouse kick and an intellectual barrage.
Of course, he may just be a 27 year old heavy smoker.

Actually, Scriber, according to the legend, it got stuck and he was unable to pull it back out.
And thus, he was no longer able to go the bathroom. So he died.

p.s. now? My dreams yesterday (one of them was really sweet) weren't very detailed.

Re: Of course, fortunately, bandana, I didn't actually connect.
1) Yes, I recall that. In
Judo, correct? Master Googoogaga.
2) With six toes in each foot.
3) I know. It gets tricky when they pass 109... they all start to look the same.

Seeing as he'd be dead.
Considering the following:
1) I have a black belt.
2) I am (as you know) a pretty tall girl with fairly long legs.
3) He's roughly 800 years old.
