Sunday. A great post and "The Ultimate Cruise!"

My "buddy" "the Chief" recently busted Cookie's nuts (after I nicely asked him not to BTW) by posting a certain photygraff in one of his recent posts. Since he doesn't want to play nice, and I'm sure he knows there will always be payback from Cookie, I thought I'd share a personal and private story he confided in me some time back about.....

My first Condom by "The Mohawk Chieftain"

"I recall my first time with a condom. I was 16. I went in to buy a packet of
condoms at Bolger's pharmacy. In those days it took a lot of guts to go in a
store and ask for that kind of item because everyone in town knew me and there
was no doubt the young lady (I think her name was Dolores) knew what they were
for.

She was working as an assistant behind the counter, and she could see that I was
really embarrassed by the whole procedure. She handed me the package and asked
if I knew how to wear one. I honestly answered, 'No, not really.'

So she unwrapped the package, took one out and slipped it over her thumb. She
cautioned me to make sure it was on tight and secure

I apparently still looked confused. So, she looked all around the store to see
if it were empty. It was. 'Just a minute,' she said, and walked to the door and
locked it. Taking my hand, she led me into the back room, unbuttoned her blouse
and removed it. She unhooked her bra and laid it aside. 'Do these excite you?'
She asked.

Well, I was so dumb-struck that all I could do was stand there with my mouth
open and nod my head. She then said it was time to slip the condom on. As I was
slipping it on, she dropped her skirt, removed her panties and lay down on a
desk. 'Well, come on', she said, 'We don't have much time.'

So I climbed on her. It was so wonderful that, unfortunately, I could no longer
hold back and KAPOW, I was done within a few moments.

She looked at me with a bit of a frown. "Did you put that condom on Chief?" she
asked. I said, 'I sure did,' and held up my thumb to show her.

Then she beat the shit out of me....

Women have always been hard for me to understand."

"Dapper Dan" said; "Re the Chief's incident: They say experience is the best teacher!
The piece on the artist is fascinating and the painting captures what most of us feel about the lunkhead in office now.
The one about the signs reminded me of a story about the college where I worked for many years. The prez was an animal lover and any stray dog who came on campus was welcomed with food, shelter, etc. Naturally, the dogs stayed. They (about 5 or 6 of them) liked to roam around all over campus but their homebase was the student center/cafeteria. They got to be a nuisance around the food, etc. and after awhile someone complained to the health dept. After that a sign was put up at the cafeteria door which read, "Dogs: Keep Out of Cafeteria!" I guess the thinking was that these were college dogs."

COOKIE said; No offense meant Dan but that is the kind of thing I have come to expect out of academia.

"Dapper Dan" said; "No offense taken, Cookie. I definitely agree."

"The Chief" said; "I can't understand why you keep tellin' folks about my life experiences. I couldn't help it that the condom was too damned small. If the clerk had read the disclaimer, she'd have seen that it said "For Naval personnel use, only. Size: Teenie-Weinie".

COOKIE said; Ahhhem. I guess you fergot mate that the Marine Corps is part of the Navy Department making you (and your ilk) "Naval Personnel", and I don't think it was the condom that "was too damned small".

Saturday.....a couple of important heads ups, and some funnies.

BOHICA!!! Fucking Pelosi and crew!! Wait'll y'all watch this!!



Please sign Congresswoman Bachmann's petition to defund this theft of our money!

BTW, fer those of ya not in the know, BOHICA is an old Military acronym for "BEND OVER HERE IT COMES AGAIN!"

From time to time, this old warrior has to go down to the VA Hospital in Syracuse and receive various treatment(s). As of these past few years whereas I used to see WWII, Korean War and Vietnam vets in the waiting room also there for their treatments, I increasingly see so many young disabled Vets from the Gulf War(s), Iraq and Afghanistan, most with missing limbs. Sad.

Yesterday, while visiting two feller bloggers, "SubVet" and "Dapper Dan", I was made aware of something new that our illustrious(and useless) politicians are considering and that is making our service personnel pay more for their health care. BULLSHIT! They get ALL their Health Care and that of their family's paid on our dime!!

Our military folks have paid a high enough price for defending our country. Please take a moment and visit "SubVet" to get further details. He has a great suggestion at the end of his post.

The Montana Rancher.

The Montana Department of Labor claimed a small Victor Rancher was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to investigate him.

Mt. Govt agent: I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them.

Rancher: Well, there's my first hand who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board.

Then there's the mentally challenged worker. He works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here. He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally.

Mt. Govt agent: That's the guy I want to talk to...the mentally challenged one.

Rancher: That would be me.

Out of the mouths of babes....

I was eating lunch today with my 14 year old grandson when his mom asked him "What is tomorrow?"

He said "It's President's Day"

She asked "What does that mean?" .... I was waiting for something profound...

He said "President's Day is when Obama steps out of the White House and if he sees his shadow, we have 2 more years of unemployment."

"SubVet" said; "Hey Cookie, thanks for the referral. Great post too."

"Dapper Dan" said; "Thanks for the link, Cookie. The $105 billion Bachman is talking about was probably buried in some obscure part of the 2000 page monstrosity of a bill that no one read.
Maybe that girl in the picture needs to be connected to that guy who drank too much beer--I'm thinking there could be some kind of surgery that would make them both happy and...that guy could keep on chugging his beer.
Great jokes. Got a kick out of that one where the little boy surprises with his line about Obama. Out of the mouths of babes..."

Some cop humor, and a blonde joke.

Gotta give a big THANKS to "Charlie The Cop" from Chicago fer sending me this one.

Having been in Law Enforcement for 21 years I've seen first hand the horrible job Corrections Officers have in prisons and jails throughout this country, and you couldn't get me to do this job for any amount of money. Here be some Corrections Officer humor.

That Kelly Pickler clip is really funny. I sometimes wonder though if she's not smarter than we think. She's playing dumb blond role to perfection and it's giving her a fat bank account."

Tuesday ....

I was just over at "The Chief's" blog and part of his post was about the movie "Cat Ballou", and it reminded me of a song I've always liked from that movie, "I was born under a wander'n star", sung by (of all people) Lee Marvin. Here t'is....

"SigBoy40" said; "Cookie,
I believe that 'Wandrin' Star' was from Paint Your Wagon. It was required viewing growing up in my Fathers house. So much so that had signs made up for hunting camp, It said "No Name City, Pop. Hunting"

COOKIE; Yupper, I stand corrected. It was "Paint Your Wagon".

"SoCalPal" said; "Cookie: It you get a chance rent or borrow of Paint Your Wagon, it's Lee Marvin at his irascible best. Great movie, especially Lee's line at the start of the show when Lee discovers a wagon that had fallen off a cliff:
Settler in Wagon Train to Lee: 'Are they dead?'
Lee's responce to Settler: "Well they'd better be cause I'm a burying them!"
Classic Lee Marvin.....What a talent he was and a Marine to boot."

Dapper Dan said; "Sorry I haven't stopped by lately, Cookie, been a little busy. Looks like this was the right time though. That Lee Marvin clip is outstanding. And Jane Russell. What a beauty. I liked Marilyn okay back in my teen years in the '50s but she had a soft kind of beauty. I always preferred Russell's edgier, sultrier(?) appeal. Russell and Katy Juardo (remember her?), another brunette, were at the top of my list.

The Chief said; "If something ain't true, hell... just make it up! Shame on you. Next thing I know, you're gonna post a video of Lee Marvin singing that old standard: "Bubblhead Blues". ;)
