Code of Conduct

Andy,


Is "spit" really in parenthesis?


Of course, I don't really care fore all that chewing wither, so perhaps the sign could read: "No masticating and expectorating." Hell, let them figure that one out!

During an election in Texas back in the 50's, a conservative candidate accused his liberal opponent of being a "known parlimentarian who allowed her children to masticate at the table." She lost.


Re HDPM's preferences, I went to a wellknown poker game in Houston a couple of years ago. I was the only guy who showed up who was younger than 70. I caught the deck and played for 14 hours. All these oldtimers chewed, non smoked. The next day when I woke up I couldn't figure out what was wrong: no head ache and my clothes didn't stink. Finally I figured it out, it was my first smoke-free poker game! God bless those spitters.

Most put napkins in the bottom of the cup. If it gets knocked over it doesn't stain the table much, easy cleanup.

Yeah, it really says spit in parenthesis.


Watched an English movie once, can't remember the name of it, and at the dinner table, while the matron of the family was speaking, someone was chewing on a crunchy food, celery or something. She asked what the noise was, the offender showed her the celery stalk,and she said, "Oh, Ithought perhaps you were masticating a fork." Great line.

Nothing matches SPM's toilet post.

ya gotta point, but hey, it's something to shoot for, so to speak...lol...gl

A line in "Roadhouse"...


There's a sign over the urinal "Please don't eat the big white mint"

I went to see my buddies band years ago and figured out what expectorate meant by the bumper sticker on the opening bands drum set. "Do Not Expectorate On Hockaloogey"
