frogtog Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Only sending this to friends who speak impeccable English! Proper Grammar Like LM On my 56th birthday, I got a gift certificate from my wife. The certificate paid for a visit to a medicine man living on a nearby reservation who was rumored to have a wonderful cure for erectile dysfunction. After being persuaded, I drove to the reservation, handed my ticket to the medicine man and wondered what would happen next. The old man slowly, methodically produced a potion, handed it to me, and with a grip on my shoulder, warned, "This is powerful medicine and it must be respected. You take only a teaspoonful and then say '1-2-3. 'When you do that, you will become more manly than you have ever been in your life and you can perform as long as you want." I was encouraged. As I walked away, I turned and asked, "How do I stop the medicine from working?" "Your partner must say '1-2-3-4,' he responded. "But when she does, the medicine will not work again until the next full moon." I was very eager to see if it worked so I went home, showered, shaved, took a spoonful of the medicine, and then invited my wife to join me in the bedroom. When she came in, I took off my clothes and said, "1-2-3!" Immediately, I was the manliest of men. My wife was excited and began throwing off her clothes. And then she asked, "What was the 1-2-3 for?" And that, boys and girls, is why we should never end our sentences with a preposition! ONE COULD END UP WITH A DANGLING PARTICIPLE!! ;D Quote

farmpond1 Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Great joke! I'll have to remember that. I was once arrested and got jail time for soliciting a prostitute. The judge, a former English teacher, said I'd begun my sentence with a proposition. ;D Quote
rfunfarm Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Is the angle of the dangle determined by the heat of the meat??? :D Quote
