I woz reading an article, ‘Three Women of Courage’ by Senator John F. Kennedy in the January (1958) edition of McCall’s – when the above mentioned article caught my attention.

For those not familiar with the aforementioned publication may I assure you that it set the highest standards in polite society and Eleanor Roosevelt was a regular contributor until her death in 1962.

Therefore in the esteemed traditions of our founding Fathers I would like to share with you some salient advice, for it is said, “Educate a boy, and you educate an individual. Educate a girl, and you educate a community.”

Where to find him:
(6) Read the obituaries to find eligible widowers.

Advice:
(24) Don’t be afraid to associate with more attractive girls; they may have some leftovers.
(33) Carry a hatbox.

How to land him:
(84) If he’s a fisherman, learn to scale and clean fish.

If all else fails:
(113) If your mothers fat, tell him you take after your father. If he’s fat too, tell him you’re adopted.
(116) Paint your name and number on the roof and say, “Give me a buzz pilots.”

If there are any A2K members (or their Mom’s) who could attest to the veracity of such stoic advice, or indeed share their own successes, please bring your thoughts to fruition.

Under the banner with a strange device: A2K Dating Guide…

Never go on a first date with a squirrel in your britches.

Hi guys, thankee kindly for your ad hominem.

Coluber, your link is a daring move, an attempt to trace the penumbra of mirth across a shattered psyche; but proof that where A2K leads – others will follow and In a joint statement, Conde Nast and publishers Media Group said they "are categorically against plagiarism" and have begun an "internal investigation to clarify all the circumstances and details of what happened".


Oh LOL, it has been said that my prevarication is only matched by your mellifluousness.
One may ask is this the face that launch'd a thousand ships and burnt the topless towers of Ilium?
Is it true that one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do? Touché.


Glitter, I appreciate the dissemination of information and I’ll waste no time in giving it a try…

BTW did it work for you?


Hiya Bunny, I Don’t Have A Favorite Color, It’s Pretty Much Whatever You Are Wearing, But Thank You For Not Thinking I’m Weird. I Mean, We Both Know I’m Weird, But You Accept It And That Makes Me Happy.


However I still find it incredulous that there has yet to be a reply to the question:

What movie completely changes its plot when you change one letter/word in its title?

That is, apart from Glitter and Jurassic Pork. Nice one.

I could add LOL; To Kill a Mocking Bard – but who cares what Shakespeare rote!

Are there any more that can assuage the Madding Crowd?

@Tryagain,
The year that “Midnight Cowboy” was released, the local tiny theater (specializing in porn movies) had displayed on the Marquee the featured film “Midnight Plowboy”""...................I suppose it’s a different movie, although I didn’t see it.

Does that work?

@Tryagain,
Some advice from back when the Bard was alive and kicking.

Quote:
Everyone wants (and expects) to have children.

Children are the property of their parents, and give them the respect a servant gives his master. Or else.

Wives are the property of their husbands. See previous admonition.

Some women are more independent than others, and some fear marriage. However, every woman expects to be married, and to depend on her male relatives throughout her life.

Of course, not everyone is in a hurry to get married, but marriage means being in charge of your own home.

Women who would have been drawn to convent life in the old days no longer have that option, and must either marry or be a burden to their families.

Hi Glitter, it my well work as my Mom said I was the result of a midnight dalliance with a cowboy during Woodstock; although it’s a bit of a bummer if I have to wait for a farmer before I can plow my furrow!


Thank you dear Izzy for your pearls of wisdom, I was much surprised by:

Servants take money from anyone. They will accept a vail (tip) for any service rendered.”

Servants are not democrats. In general, they approve of the social order, just like their masters. And they intend to take advantage of it.”

I can’t believe they were all Republicans and that was a century before the sailing of the Mayflower!!!


Yo Yankee, I always had you pegged as a romantic and when I saw that on the ‘Why do Southerners reffer to their relatives as Kin?’ thread, Izzy was under Set, but above you… down hereaways in the boonies we call that a ménage à trios – enjoy.

LOL what can I say about your amazing talents that is not already common knowledge on Omicron Persei 8. I suggest we discuss fiscal responsibility and any such ramifications in the sauna. Butt as Joe Cocker said; You Can Leave Your Hat On


C-J sweetie, with a rack like yours you should do more than keep spice innit, how about a fine pair of Griswold and Gunnison confederate revolvers. And don’t forget; Alles hat ein Ende, nur die Wurst hat zwei.

OMG Seventeen magazine, I had forgotten all about that, it was the gateway to adulthood… unfortunately I was already shelf bound by the time it was first published in 1944.


Perhaps someone could be so kind as to explain how the term GIG came into being and what does it stand for – is it an acronym/backronym or a pseudo syndrome of linguistic pomposity?

Thankee kindly.

We had no Seventeen magazine where I grew up (Germany), glitterbag...
that might explain a lot actually. As they say "It's tough being German, but somebody's gotta do it!"

Glitter asked, “Which way?”

Every which way but loose, a great film.

I was referring to GIG in a musical sense, as in, I have a GIG this Saturday – an agreement to perform. Is it a made up word or are the letters an acronym for something like: Got Income Guarantee.

Failing that – what makes this sentence unique?
‘Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.’

Oh mein Gott. Holla die Waidfee, C-J, that is the last time I use A2K translate!
Ich steh auf dem Schlauch, I thought I was sharing my mom’s recipe for Wiener schnitzel.
Tut mir leid, aber mein Englisch ist under aller Sau.

Greetings JK, welcome to A2K, your perspicacity honors this thread.

Is the shortest sentence that contains every letter of the alphabet.
