just received this via email…from a friend in CA. EMERGENCY ROOM The other day, I needed to go to the emergency room. Not wanting to sit there for 4 hours, I put on old Army fatigues and stuck a patch that I had downloaded off the Internet onto the front of my shirt. When I went into the E. R., I noticed that 3/4 of the people got up and left. I guess they decided they weren’t that sick after all. Here’s the patch. Feel free to use it the next time you’re in Need of quicker emergency service. It also works well if you ever have to use a Laundromat!
ROTFLMAO!
and just what are you saying??
jk

That’s like the time back in the late 60’s when I was working in DC. I was a service tech for a major company and of course it was suit and tie time for work. Also carried a pager…technology that was fairly new on the market. Things were a bit slow one afternoon so I wandered into a headshop in Georgetown. Really made the folks there nervous. Then my pager went off. It was like cockroaches when you turn the lights on…they all vanished into the woodwork…not a soul to be seen… POOF…gone…!! :lol:
What is a headshop??
Headshop is a store that sells drug paraphernalia…usually thinly disguised as imported decorative items for the home…if you happen to decorate your home with bongs and water pipes… It was full of long haired hippies and other potheads and druggies.
Didya see anyone we know there?
There has to be some explanation for his narrow minded recalcitrance.
Most that were the ultra liberal “down with the establishment” pothead types of the 60’s have become our ultra conservative “leaders” today… They are now the epitome of the rule book of life that they so riled against back then.
That’s what happens Warren, young people with no power and lots of ideas, grow up and realize in order to have power you have to conform to society, and become that which they once stood against, Power corrupts !
Warren Mumpower said:Now, there you go Warren. Just when I think you can be civil you bring up headshops, bongs and statements like what is quoted above. While you were in the headshops, I was bustin the druggies trying to bring the "square grouper" bales in to our fish markets. Don't even believe that that is the conservative of today. It is the Hillary and Bills and all the lawyers that think they are going to save the World and then the worst group of all, the college professors that could never make it in the real World, but feel they are successful and doing the work of the Shama by brainwashing the youth. I've heard Hillary and Bill make a lot more sense if you are on drugs. Potheads are always potheads.

Best that we just talk about trains

BIG SNIP Best that we just talk about trains
But, this is the off topic forum, so we should expect to see off topic subject matter raised and discussed.
Term we used for a professor was “educated idiot”. It doesn’t really matter if it’s Republican or Democrat…conservative or liberal, they are both one side or the other of the same worthless coin.
The definition of a “Conservative,” is a former “Liberal,” who now has two daughters! :lol:
Now for my “La Migra,” story.
At one time, oh about 12 or so years ago, I had the honor to be the Adviser to Explorer Post 319 of La Mesa, CA. (They are now called “Ventureres.”) We wore the green BSA Explorer shirt with khaki shorts. After an outing to help one of our Explorers complete his “Eagle” project, we stopped into a small convenience store near Laguna Lake* in the backcountry just east of San Diego.
In we walk, some 20 strong of young adults, along with myself and one other old fhart, all wearing the above mentioned green shirt with khaki shorts.
One of the patrons of the store shouted out, “La Migra!” There was a generalized Charlie Foxtrot as all of the original patrons of the store, along with both clerks, ran out the back door, or dived out the open window, leaving us alone in the store.
It took me a few minutes to figure out what had happened.
*Laguna Lake translates as Lake Lake. The Department of Redundancy Department has struck again. Its like the sign on a bridge on I-5 as it passes over one of the “rivers,” in Southern California that said, “Rio Honda River.” :lol:
Ahh…I think thats the Rio Hondo river,
A Rio Honda is about $16,500+tax
When I walked into a local restaraunt a latina said “gringo” to which I replied “No, yo no gringo, yo el guapo!” made her blush.
