ValentineXavier Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 *Pandora and the Flying Buttress* Pandora is getting bored with seducing all the eligible men around her, and demanding sacrifices from them, to receive her charms. One day, walking by an old church, she decides upon a truly great test of her charms. She will try to seduce a flying buttress, hoping to melt its heart of stone! Every day, for weeks, she visits the buttress, lavishing her attentions on it. Finally, the buttress succumbs to her allure. She demands that it cease supporting the wall of the church, to show that it cares only for her. Smitten, the buttress cannot resist. It releases the wall. The wall falls, crushing them both.

You'll laugh your a s s off. *Redd River* After a hard day on the trail, the cowhands like a little entertainment, but they're tired of some gap-toothed old timer playing the harmonica. So Monty decides to hire Redd Foxx, making him the first African-American comic to play the Chisholm Trail. When Redd does some of his raunchier material it upsets the Duke, and after a tangle with Monty, John is sent packing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who can take some grass, Sprinkle it with dust, Sort out all the seeds and stuff, The Reefer Man, The Reefer Man can, The Reefer Man can, Cause he mixes it with love, And makes the world feel good. *Pepper and Salt of the Earth* Rat Packers Sammy and Peter head down to New Mexico where they hear they can score some primo weed just across the border in Mexico.

OtisCriblecoblis Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Hey, mind your own damn business. My daughter will listen to whoever she pleases. And by the way, my other daughter's skirt length is age and height appropriate. Busybody. *The Effects of Martha Raye on Men Who Moon Marigolds* A lonely child with an embarrassingly eccentric mother tries to find solace in her school science project. She observes that when Martha Raye's voice is heard men who moon marigolds increase their mooning activities. The voices of Kate Smith and Carol Channing have so such effect. Though she hoped to win a prize, instead she is given a three day suspension. Sometimes the world is just not ready for a breakthrough scientific theory.

misswonderly3 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 *OF MICE AND MENSCH* Itinerant farm hands George and Lennie are on a quest to become the best they can be, whether a mouse or a mensch they have yet to find out. George, ever the cynic and philosopher, feels that by helping and supporting his slower-witted buddy Lennie, he is on his way to becoming a true mensch. Lennie is more concerned with settling down on a farm of their own, as long as it is filled with soft and fluffly creatures. They find work at a rabbit ranch, but their happiness is short-lived. Disaster strikes when Lennie, in a misguided attempt to befriend the harsh and arrogant ranch owner's son, asks him if he thinks of himself as a mouse, a mensch, or a rabbit. Poor Lennie is somewhat confused, but the ranch owner, having never heard the term "mensch" before, takes offence and threatens to drive Lennie and George off the ranch. The two flee the rabbit ranch to escape the owner's rage, and Lennie is heard to plea to George as they scramble to hide in the bushes, "But George, I mensch well..." "We'll never become true mensches in this rabbit hole, Lennie. And by the way, stop asking everyone if they understand Yiddish." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtisCriblecoblis Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I haven't read Of Mice and Men since high school, where everyone did Lennie imitations, Gee George look at the rabbit. I'll have to read it again one of these days. It's too hard being a mensch. I'm just a Mensch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when they finally get to Wyoming, they find instead a run down syphilis hospital full of male pensioners who have the clap. Oh, the humanity.

Is "m e n s c h " supposed to be capitalized? Sorry, I didn't know. Otis, you're such a Mensch. (ps- You don't have to read Steinbeck's novel. They've made at least two movie renditions of Mice and Men. Being the film connaisseur you are, I'm surprised you haven't seen at least one version.)

OtisCriblecoblis Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 A lot of Yiddish words come from German, and in German Mensch simply means man, without the added meaning that mensch entails. I might have seen the original movie a long time ago, I'm not sure. I like to read the book first, because the movie will always leave things out and fall short of the book.

During his trek he runs across Ava Gardner and Grace Kelly, who are retiring from the picture business to become missionaries.

C.Bogle Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Babe, you'd be surprised how good that damn ant looks in a tux. And I've got just about everything we need for the reception. Just have to order a thousand pounds of sugar and 50 jars of honey. *Gi-Ant II: The Final Picnic* Fifty years after the invasion of the giant ants, things have calmed down a bit, and the Benedicts have learned to live with the ants. They have even gone a step further. Luz VII is engaged to one and hopes to produce the first ant-human offspring. But some people are still antists and Bink V gets into a fight with one of them at the local Big Boy. He gets pounded, but he is proud to have stood up for his formic friends.

Now think Watson, how are we going to get those poppers to the other side of London? *Sherlock Holmes and the Closet of Fear* Criminal genius Prof. Moriarity has discovered, by bribing one of the Baker Street Irregulars, that Holmes and Watson share a much more intimate relationship than thought. He then intercepts a letter from Holmes to Oscar Wilde proposing a foursome with Watson and Bosie. Now Moriarity can conduct his criminal enterprises free of interference from Sherlock Holmes, knowing that the real dope on Holmes would be far from amusing, either to the Queen or to Victorian society.
