So did I, and thought it was funny.

Reminds me of the one about the lawyer saying to Mickey, "You can't divorce Minnie on grounds that she's insane"
Mickey said "I didn't say she was crazy, I said she was f*cking Goofy!"

@Linkat,
You probably won't like this one. If Mickey has a cardiac arrest you will have to give him mouse to mouse resuscitation.

@izzythepush,
But I'm not a mouse - I'd have to give him mouth to mouse resuscitation. Now if minnie were to do it, then it would be mouse to mouse.

"Sir" can be very handy, for failures of memory qua names.
When I was practicing law, I found it convenient
in taking witness' testimony; I used it a lot, including children.

I understood, that I coud not go rong calling
the witness "Sir" when I did not remember his last name.
That was convenient.

About mijo and mija in the Spanish Southwest, I think it may have something to do with the Southern influence of addressing people by pet names. In Mexico things are considerably more formal. Polite strangers address each other as señor Sir, señora Mrs., señorita Miss, and joven young man.

What I've witnessed oftentimes is that when Mexican American women address Mexicans by mijo and mija, the Mexicans will respond by addressing the former as madre mother, which is a very cold sounding word in Spanish unlike more pet sounding terms like mamá or amá.

I have only ever awarded one gold star ever, and that was to Setanta. He churlishly refused it. Getting simple jokes isn't usually something to aspire to, but if that's your ambition, fair play. I hope that this Christmas, after pulling your crackers, you will chortle merrily upon reading the enclosed Yuletide howler. No more staring blankly into space.

You can make it your new year's resolution.
