One good joke deserves another. -- Larry Brash, 02:49:54 09/13/02 Fri

Two whales, a male and a female, are swimming side by side in the ocean. Suddenly, the male spots a ship in the distance. He recognizes it as the whaling ship that killed his father.

Filled with anger, he exclaims to his female companion, "That is the ship that killed my father! Let's swim closer!"

When they're close enough, the male said, "Why don't we swim under the ship and blow air through our blow holes and break the ship into a million pieces? That will be sweet revenge."

And the female agreed to this. So they each took a deep breath of air, swam under the ship, and blew enormous amounts of air under the ship. The ship flew into the air and crashed back to the sea and broke into a million pieces.

The pair of whales started to swim off when they realized that the sailors were floating in the ocean. The male whale was very angry and said to the female, "They're still alive, but I've got another idea. Let's swim around and gulp down all the sailors!"

The female stopped swimming, looked at her man and said, "Oh no... I agreed to the blow job but I'm NOT swallowing the seamen."

=

The milkman, Mr. Jones, is to retire soon, and in the middle of his last round, he reaches the home of one of his oldest customers, the Goldsteins. Mrs. Goldstein welcomes him in.

"Retiring, eh? Ah, imagine that! Well, I can tell you, we'll all miss you here", she says. "We wanted to show some appreciation. We hope we have organized a real neat beautiful little Hebrew treat! The finest, already!"

She grabs him and drags the poor old fellow into the bedroom, strips off his clothes, cheers "we want it!", and engages in the wildest, awesome, best sex with him, till he'd nearly fainted. She then hands him a new five dollar note and then prepares a bowl of nice hot chicken soup,

"Please.. eat, eat! Eat it! Bon appetit!"

Agape, the milkman is amazed by her passion. He babbles, "Whoa, wait, Mrs. Goldstein. You are too kind. Why all that?"

"Well, the other day, I said to that appalling husband of mine, Lew: 'Well, Lew, dear... the milkman, he's retiring. I need an idea. What should we do for him?'"

"And then, that tightarse ape, Lew, he said, 'What? Ah, fuck him... give him five dollars!'"

"But the chicken soup? Aha, that was my idea."

The milkman, Mr. Alan Jones, will be retiring soon. In the middle of his last round, he reaches the home of one of his oldest customers, the Goldsteins, where Mrs. Anna Goldstein welcomes him.

"Ah, come in here. Retiring, eh? Well, imagine that! I can tell you, we'll all miss you", she says. "We wanted to show some proper appreciation. We have organized a suitable Hebrew treat! And, the best one, already!"

She grabs him and drags the poor old fellow into the bedroom, strips off his clothes, and engages in the wildest, best, hot sex with him, till he's weeping. He is really amazed by her appetite.

She then hands him a brand new five dollar note and then a bowl of nice heated chicken soup to eat. The milkman tastes it.

"Ah, please... eat it! Bon appetit!"

"Wait, Mrs. Goldstein, please wait. You are too kind. Why all of this?"

"Well, the other day, I said to that awful peasant of a husband of mine, Lew, "Lew, dear... the milkman... he's retiring. I need an idea, please, Lew. What should we do for him?'"

Or perhaps it's better this way:

[> [> Re: [Lina Medina, the world's youngest mother] Yet another NOM for the list, David. -- David A. Green, 20:58:40 09/14/02 Sat

Thanks Richard! The word order is slightly wrong: it should, of course, be "Re: tiny little underaged Mom who has son." "Re who" also produces "whore" but I didn't like the implication of this.

I like your idea of perhaps combining all these superlatives into a special: I don't think I've ever had an entry in the Special category before. Maybe, though, I need to produce a few more along these lines first before I can even contemplate competing with the other Special entrants.

I'm off to Lithuania this afternoon for a week or so, so there won't be anything more from me for a few days!

Yep, picked and fixed the order at the time. (And coincidentally also noticed the "whore" possibility - shelving it for the same reason you did, of course.)

>I like your idea of perhaps combining all these
>superlatives into a special: I don't think I've ever

You've had one: Hunger by Ruth Sharman (Dec 2001). I was disappointed that you didn't follow up on that one, it's always good to have new longagrammatists join the ranks.

>Maybe, though, I need to produce a few more along these

OK, though I disagree with that last part. :)
Tell you what, if your Lithuanian sojourn takes too much out of the remainder of your month's 'gramming time for you to be satisfied with the size of your collection I can hold it over until October if you like.

This is just to say... -- Santi, 04:11:54 09/12/02 Thu

THIS IS JUST TO SAY
poem by William Carlos Williams

I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox

and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast

Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold

=

SAD EVENT
(a letter)

oops...
...shit!

be calm...

I've broken
the six toy flower vases
and the big jar
which was
in the cupboard

they were
so nice
but I...
I am so fool

I'd just suggest one tiny change, Santi, if I may be so bold:

>but I...
>I am so fool

Ideally this should read "I am so foolish", but the less radical transposition "I'm so a fool" should do just as well, perhaps even better than "foolish" in poetic terms. Sound OK?
