Appy Birthdee, Jim!! <smahl> Barb Mallut (faking an Aussie accent) [log in to unmask] ---------- From: Parkinson's Information Exchange on behalf of Jim Slattery Sent: Thursday, January 15, 1998 8:40 PM To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN Subject: Re: Dead Blue: Surviving Depression Hi Elliot, >TO HELL WITH PARKINSON'S!! LONG LIVE WET BONES!! > Ten Ribald Parkies Proverbs 17:22 Huh? In my Bible, Proverbs only goes to Ch.12. Or is *that* the joke and I am too dim to see it? <grin> Anyways, while I was looking it up, I stumbled on the Book of Isaiah, which reminded me of the following story. A man walked into an English pub in the West Country, with a small dog on a lead. He went up to the bar and ordered a pint of bitter. The barman looked over the bar at the dog, then said to the man, "Naice doag, wot's naime?". The man said, " 1 Isaiah". The barman said, "Yer named yer doag a'ter the first cha'ter o' the Book of Isaiah?" The man said, "Naw." The barman said, "Why der yer call 'im 1 Isaiah, then?" The man said, "Because one eye's 'igher than t'other." (Sorry to all Poms for the attempted accent.) Jim 59/13 (Gotta put each one up a year, it's me birthdee) [log in to unmask]
