It appears, Major, that you're the only one. Either that or it isn't all that funny.

It's a pity. I must have missed it. Why, in my younger days, when I was, if not a state champion, then a district champion wise-ass. Why there was not a single straight line I would leave standing.

In the present case, I had a couple possibilities come into my brain, but I was holding out for a wise-ass comment that would rhyme with "orange". (Do you have any idea how hard that is?)

With all the delay I got distracted and went on to something else--what it was I now forget.

Sigh!

I get it, but I doubt anyone else would, unless they work for fiserv., as I do. (their company color is orange...)
Speaking of things that depress me...

I thought it might've been a Dutch joke, but then they don't make motorcycles!

Yeah, the speed skating brought that to mind for me too. ;)

Nice to see the old ZM quoting skills in action again. :mrgreen:

Hey, are those Steve Gloves? They look just like the ones I was wearing when the Duc spit me off at 70 - and I'm still wearing them.
