3/17/2015 - Happy Saint Patrick's Day
« on: March 16, 2015, 11:58:59 PM »

I'm expecting big things from you on this St. Patty's Day so don't let me down!  After all, it's Tuesday too.  In between insults we'll occasionally discuss cigars.  Join in and perhaps learn something along the way.  Be warned, post on this site and you will catch hell from members and trolls alike.  Therefore, don't proceed if you have thin skin.  If you can accept all that, light a cigar, pour a beverage and welcome aboard!

Whats This?
-------------------------

The day care teacher holds up a picture and asks, "What's this?" "A horsy," one child answers.

"And this?" the teacher asks. "A piggy," replies another youngster."

There was no answer, only total silence. "Come now, children," she coaxes, "I'll give you a little hint".

What does your Mommy call your Daddy when he hugs and kisses her a lot?
"I know! I know!!" exclaims one little girl.
"It's a horny bastard!"
