O Great Linguist...
You know, I remembered that, just before I forgot it, which is what makes this comment so amazing, yet confusing, or to be more hipper, confuzing. Grass being greener, that is what I remembered I forgot, so then, I forgot to forget? The tabloids have it his real name was Humpty Osborne and he was higher than a Jamaican cosmonaut. Finally, this cracked me up, that's how cunning it was.

My heart breaks for him -- into a frying pan with so hashbrowns.

Re: Krisles
Not only that, but he was a bad egg from beginning. Don't let that Sunday school outfit fool you -- he was like Nellie Olsen's little brother... maybe he was like Nellie Olsen. Regardless, somebody should have cracked him upside the head. I've heard things. I'm not even sure he was a man. What kind of name is that anyway?!

Well, of course, it was his mother's fault.....she was probably some fowl-mouthed barnyard squatter who went after any pecker who came around.....the poor guy probably had issues from the time he rolled out the chute.....besides, have you seen the picture of that dumb outfit she always sent him out in????? Some of the yardbirds probably stuck him up on that wall as a prank.........as for why those men tried to put him back again....men are always trying to put the yolk back in the shell after it's already spilled.....wait! is that milk back in the bottle....ink back in the pot....whatever!....women just clean it up and get on with it.....point is the answer to your query is in three letters, m-e-n
But, I never had much sympathy for Humpty....I mean, an egg just really doesn't make me go all warm and fuzzy.....

Re: FineYoungSinger
Personally, I think they made the whole thing up. Never really happened.
Thanks for giving me some much needed attention. My therapist would be pleased if she didn't just recently off herself by repeatedly running herself over with her SUV.

A great look at at the nonsense I was forced to memorize in school! Stupidification is what it is!
