You Have My Permission To Shoot Me

( … if you catch me doing one of these.) Naming any baby Finton, voting for Hillary Clinton, complimenting Nascar, moving to Nebraska, using "literally" to mean "very", calling Derry Londonderry, uttering the word "redact", claiming Johnny Depp can act, saying society's to blame, mentioning fifteen minutes of fame, feeling sorry for Amanda Knox, watching anything on Fox, or even one second of Jerry Springer, making speech marks with my fingers, drinking alcohol alone, admiring Sharon Stone, labelling anyone a pagan, sighing "bring back Ronald Reagan", playing Rod Stewart's "We Are Sailing", paying money to see Van Halen ... (and if ever, instead of clever, I say smart, I promise to wear - right there - a target across my heart.)

Oh, and one other thing. Sure would like to see Trump's Tax returns and results of his MMPI, Wechsler Bellevue and Stanford Benet tests. Should prove to be quite interesting. Jim Horn

Trump will be impeached (that's if he doesn't get us all blown up first).

How about Dairy Lick. Their milk was good down to the last lick and was sour at the end and made you sick even if I was part of the vast majority voting for Hillary. Education, experience and knowledge are supposed to have some significance somewhere along the line.Jim Horn

This was fun Michael though I have paid to see Van Halen and it was worth it and I always thought Amanda Knox was hot. :)

LOL me too - but I never allow the truth to get in the way of sarcastic jokes. Thank you for such a nice comment, Chris.
