They heard the announcer say, "We are going to have 8 to 10 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the even-numbered side of the street, so the snowplows can get through."

He finds his way to a barstool and orders a drink. After sitting there for a while, he yells to the bartender, 'Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?" The bar immediately falls absolutely quiet. In a very deep, husky voice, the woman next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, sir, I think it is just fair - given that you are blind - that you should know five things: 1) the bartender is a blonde girl, 2) the bouncer is a blonde girl, 3) I'm a 6 feet tall, 180-pound blonde woman with a black belt in karate, 4) the woman sitting next to me is blonde and is a professional weight lifter, 5) the lady to your right is a blonde and is a professional wrestler.

Not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times." *snicker* *snort* 0>;~} http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/12/twas_the_day_af.html#comment-67980 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/12/twas_the_day_af.html#comment-67980 Thu, 27 Dec 2007 17:07:20 -0600 Thank you, Maggie..:) As I recall though, we distracted Bill for several days with the mystery of EGG SALAD.

And John, HF6 is a strawberry blonde. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/12/twas_the_day_af.html#comment-67957 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/12/twas_the_day_af.html#comment-67957 Thu, 27 Dec 2007 07:14:26 -0600 FbL - I take your excellent suggestion as an indication that you are siding with the blondes here? http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/12/twas_the_day_af.html#comment-67943 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/12/twas_the_day_af.html#comment-67943 Wed, 26 Dec 2007 23:20:11 -0600 Heh.
