No Balls comes to mind too .... Short Putter maybe? SR I think found out early that she had more drive than GB did ... But Howie liked the whole golfing scene ....

Never knew about Howie...he was a Spartan...but SR did prefer the long driver...size does make a difference.

GB: I always thought that Howie was a golfer ... I figured that he was a wasted bronco ... and would get teed off when he get his balls off the tee ... hee hee..... I think he was the one that liked the LONG DRIVER .... size was important to him according to SR ....

GB picks his women like he selects his golf clubs. He likes the ones whose knuckles lie flat on the ground with only a slight bend at the waist.

OD: Ability to bend at the waist is fine attribute in women!

OD: you are so right on! that is why GB always admired Evelyn Fruend when she would bend at the waist ..... when she would go into her Human bowling ball trick when she rolled down Fordham in the annual SJS parade on All Saints Day....

GB: "Always seeing things from the glass half empty" ... E Fruend was a tons of fun ... took her spinal cord and was able to roll up into the Human Bowling Ball .... she wasn't interesting she was the worst of teachers ..... DHS didn't have very many stand outs either ... Remember you have been part of the change that has occurred in the evaluation of teachers and being able to CAN some of the assholes....

ES: By interesting I meant physical attributes...there were no foxes at Columbus...at least none that I recall...although my 4th grade teacher Nina Jason was pretty close...if the guy (can't recall his name) who taught 5th grade in the next room wasn't getting some he sure was trying hard...at Denby there were a few...not many, but a few.

Yeah, we got rid of some assholes who had no business being near a kid...but it always took a good sized checkbook...either to buy them out or to pay our lawyers for the prolonged legal fight...even when we had highly validated data. And, invariably some dumb shit parent would show up at a hearing proclaiming that "the best teacher my kid ever had is being abused."

45 rpm? Is that the rotation of Evelyn, GB’s bowling ball? When EF got the momentum up nothing could stop her.

Incredible how the Greenies are soooooo intimidated by the nationally recognized helmet of The University of Michigan. I guess it comes from chanting "We're number two" all of these years.

OK! Everyone.... lets all count the banana peels on the helmet again ... I am still baffled as to its significance ... were they left over from the Flash Gordon serials???? University of Mongo ????
GB - with your kind of luck EF probably was a grad of Bananahead University ... where they chanted "She's 469 ... She's 469"

I do remember her telling another teacher that she went to college in Kalamazoo ... It certainly wasn't that nursing college that you GB devastated - Jenny craig College ...NO! Could it have been WMU ????? It might have been a beauty college in AA .... u OF m hair styling major .... minor in weight loss .... and the 38 you mention was the size in feet of her waist line....

ES: AMEN! And now George McCain (or is it John Bush?) has selected Sarah WHO? to be his running mate...just goes to show how far one can go without a penis...no other reason for her to be there. What an absolute joke! This election isn't about winning for the Democratic Party...this is about SAVING what is left of our country. It'll take to generations to correct the damage of the last eight years. I still think Bush, Cheney, Rove, Rumsfeld, Powell, Rice...the whole fu_king crowd should be sent to the Hague and tried as war criminals...if the world finds them not guilty...or guilty...so be it!

Could there be anything more stupid than Old George McCain choosing an absolute rookie governor from a state that isn't even part of the mainstream United States to be the VP...does the old fool think that he's going to live forever. I suppose he thinks he'll pander to the Hillary supporters.

I lived in AK for a couple years...we always felt closer to the USSR than we did to DC...not just in terms of miles but also culturally...believe me...Alaska is NOT in touch with the values of this country.

I'm staying out of the political discussions except to say when I saw her I thought old John chose Tina Fey as his running mate.

Her voice will crack glass but will not shatter barriers.... and a clown regarding the rights of women...... Poli Sci books will reflect this as a major blunder..... How many days until victory for Obama?

Poli Sci books will count her as a very minor footnote in the comedy that is George McCain. She supported Pat Buchanan for president the last time he ran...from her lofty seat as mayor of Wasilla, Alaska (pop. 6,500)...what an absolute joke.
