    History is the fiction we create to validate what we do next.

    Too much? Ok…

    History is written by the winners.

    On hearing that her elderly grandfather had just passed away, Katie went straight to her grandparent’s house to visit her 95 year old grandmother and comfort her.

    When she asked how her grandfather had died, her grandmother replied, “He had a heart attack while we were making love on Sunday morning.”

    Horrified, Katie told her grandmother that 2 people nearly 100 years old having sex would surely be asking for trouble.

    “Oh no, my dear, " replied granny. “Many years ago, realizing our advanced age, we figured out the best time to do it was when the church bells would start to ring. It was just the right rhythm. Nice and slow and even. Nothing too strenuous, simply in on the Ding and out on the Dong.”

    She paused, wiped away a tear and then continued, “And if that damned ice cream truck hadn’t come along, he’d still be alive today!”

    I am unable to delete my first attempt to tell a joke. There isn’t even the option to delete. I tried to get fancy and bold the title but the whole thing got bolded instead and now my post is forever locked with unfinished ending.

    It’s another example of someone’s ding-donging needs no longer being met.

    The d-d-less dude looks so downcast. Or perhaps he’s checking something out below the panel. Hum.

    Once again, I am reminded of “anyone lived in a pretty how town.” But then again, everything reminds me of e e cummings this month. Next month it’ll be Longfellow. Lots of opportunity for naughty puns there!

    You should be able to delete it at your profile page, where it is on display with a delete option. Also, somebody could just flag it I suppose…

    Raw tamales, maybe? A regional variant may look that way done.Stranglehold was a blasted at Noriega.Desert Storm started with Machine Gun.During the Iranian revolution, we acted like we were on a cruise ship & played Segar across the Persian Gulf to less than friendly Soviets.Psychology is weapon. Scots had their pipes, we will rock you.

    Code can be unforgiving. Gotta be sure the undo is where needed. < / b > (without spaces) at the end, or /a, /i, or whatever you started with. Typos will screw you.

    It was an honor to meet FlightSuit, a most gracious host and a capital fellow. The conversation only made it halfway to the Large Magellanic Cloud, but had we been given more time… It was a perfect afternoon.

    @weeksfive: Aha! The bold version was in fact deleted (by my flagging it I assume). And I see it’s gone from your profile page too.
