  I am nominating John for Really Good Boyfriend of the Year. An honor only bestowed by women and gay men.
  If April ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy.

  The other great thing about salzburg is that they love being known as Mozart’s birthplace. Of course, he left in disgust when he was 21 and never returned. They leave that part out.

  Nice wurst but still no Lebkuchen?

• 7 April // Jan 12, 2008 at 1:05 am

• 10 GiveMeTheMusic // Jan 12, 2008 at 12:20 pm

  There are now. And April’s gonna have to put on her A-game to take out The Superficial and Overheard In New York.

  I’m not worried.

  More interesting than an 8 pound baked potato? Impossible!

• 12 paper-hat // Jan 12, 2008 at 2:35 pm

  I love big potato with butter!

  salzburg is a beautiful city and the salt mine itself is a real treat. That being said. There’s an old thought about Austria. That is they made the world believe beethoven was Austian and Hitler was German. In Vienna, one can almost see the ghosts of Mahler and Kafka. You don’t have to look to far to see the fractures from WWII, In salzburg one only thinks of Julie andrews and happy little kids. It is kind of like, there was no need fot the final solution in Salzburg because there were never any Jews there in the first place.

  paper-hat, that is too funny. Can you add the holy trinity? Sour cream, bacon and chives? For those still kosher, perhaps cheese?

• 15 paper-hat // Jan 12, 2008 at 10:59 pm

  Shannon, with a spud like that were going to need some help with the diaper, those young tot’s tend to squirt the butter right into moms face!…

  April have you tried 99 cent store mouthwash. It’s 40 proof. Really works well.

  Some Jokes are timeless because of their placement. My”I brake for Jayne Mansfield’s head’ bumper sticker isn’t understood by all people, but the ones who ‘get it’, get it good.
  of course some jokes don’t date too well. Take
  Q: where did lord Mountbatten go for vacation?
  A: All over Ireland.
  In 1980, this was a laugh riot. In 1985, It was still funny for those who knew a little about the recent history of terrorism. However, today it usually requires explanation on how IRA didn’t always stand for retirement savings and that there once were actually Irish people sober enough to pull off an assassination.
  Early in ‘86 the joke got a much needed lift in the form of the Challenger disaster with
  Q: Where did Christa MaCulliffe go for vacation?
  A: all over florida.
  Again today it probably requires an explanation
  Despite close calls and also rans, the joke hasn’t really been able to updated successfully since then. Let’s face it. John Denver died on impact in one piece and the Princess diana going on vacation ‘all of a tunnel in Paris’ just doesn’t make any Oklahoma city and the twin towers haven’t been any help either. Not that they are sacred, just that no famous victim got blown up in either tragedy
  So it isn’t cheapened, it is best that this joke is buried until Kaboom, so and so has been blown to bits. Then the glory of this joke will return.

  Do kids even know who Helen Keller is anymore? Are the jokes still being told ?

  After the last round in which the punchline was…..Because she’s DEAD, I hadn’t heard any new ones

• 21 Shannon // Jan 13, 2008 at 10:54 pm

  Yes, when I reference Fibber Magee’s closet no one ever laughs.

• 22 JohnnyBoy // Jan 14, 2008 at 11:07 am

  I never really found that too funny, anyway. Now, Gracie Allen’s closet, with all the men’s hats….THAT was funny

• 23 pal Jacky // Jan 14, 2008 at 5:47 pm

  Have you ever heard any old Fibber Magee shows? They were so balantently pinko that in this one case Josef McCarthy could have gotten my sympathies.
  As far as old radio shows are concerned, I was born in 1960. And every family on the block and relatives had some sort of godawful Jello Salad. My family’s was green jello with apple and cabbage bits among other things. My ex-wive’s family had a lemon jello with shredded cheese and grapes slit in two. They used to run a old radio shows in L.A. a few years back and I often listened. It turns out when Jello was sponsoring Jack Benny every week they had a different god awful jello recipe. Propaganda at its finest .

  furthermore, south park did the ultimate helen keller joke. They turned ‘the miracle worker’ into a musical performed by third graders for a thanksgiving pageant.

  I smell baked potato fish
