I got Buff'lo on my mind
Ever get one of those "Everybody from X-place knows" or "If you're going to X-place you should know" email jokes that's been forwarded so many times that the brackets are so deep (>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>) it pushes the content into a single word column on the right? We got one the other day for the hometown and damn if it isn't accurate.
I shall temporarily ignore my Voluntary Southerner status and wax nostalgic as I present the much cleaned up list.
We, the people of Buffalo (and surrounding areas), hold these truths to be self-evident:

Did something get hosed last night with the mu.nu stuff? I can only get here via snoozebuttondreams.mu.nu and not at all by snoozebuttondreams.com.

Pixy moved us to our new server last night and there are some DNS propagation issues with the .com domains. Snoozebuttondreams.com isn't available everywhere yet. It works at work but not at home (yet) for me. Could take another 12 to 36 hours before it gets everywhere it needs to be.
Bison is a Western New York dairy company that makes THE best chip dips in the world. Period. Plus, the name is just awesome for a line of chip dips. "Bison Chip" Dip. Get it? Like "Buffalo Turd" Dip. That still cracks me up.

Hi Jim. Snoozebuttondreams.com works for me. I'l poke around a bit and see if I can find anything that looks odd with the DNS.

I was kidding, most folks in bflo don't move around too much.
"live and die, in Elma" , I think that's the town motto.
I was from Kenmore/Tonawanda.

Ken-Ton? Wow. I was NT for my high school years. In '87 the only victory our football team had was against Tonawanda. Ah, those were the days...pep rallies, parades, bonfires...ahhhh...
Of course all of that has matured into hatred of the Miami Dolphins.

Is it just me or does that child look evil?
Posted by: Jennifer at February 19, 2004 12:03 PM (DdBLw)

Definitely. That's the same puss that our shortest child often wears and he is most decidedly evil.

What should you do if you come across an elephant in the jungle?
Apologize profusely and wipe it off.

Elephants don't live in the jungle, so this is hardly likely.

Well no, they might not live there but they certainly do vacation there. Didn't you ever see Tarzan?

Egh - gross. I'd be more concerned as to what one is doing choking the chimp in the midst of one of natures most dangerous environments...

Driving them off savannah is a bit excessive could'nt they have walked?

2 in the front and 2 in the back.
How do you know if an elephant is visiting your house?

Footprints in the butter....oh no,thats the fridge.

all of this elephantine talk has put me in mind of the old management saying:
Getting anything done around here is like elephants mating:
It has to be done at a very high level with lots of snorting and hooting and it take 2 years to produce any results.
Sound familier?
Posted by: Rob at February 19, 2004 10:03 AM (kXZI6)

That does sound vaguely familiar, Rob.

The way you can tell if an elephant is visiting your house? There's a car in your driveway with three elephants in it.

Osama in Paradise
After his death, Osama bin Laden went to paradise.
He was greeted by George Washington, who gut punched him and yelled angrily, "How dare you attack the nation I helped conceive!" Then Patrick Henry punched Osama in the nose and James Madison kicked him in the groin. Bin Laden was subjected to similar beatings from John Randolph, James Monroe, Thomas Jefferson and 66 other early Americans.
As he writhed in pain on the ground, an angel appeared. Bin Laden groaned, "This is not what I was promised!"
The angel replied, "I told you there would be 72 Virginians waiting for you! What did you think I said?"

Doc, it hurts when I do this...
Patient: Doc, I can't stop singing
The Green, Green Grass of Home.
Doctor: That sounds like Tom Jones Syndrome.
Patient: Tom Jones Syndrome? I've never heard of that. Is it rare?
Doctor: It's Not Unusual.
