Subj:     Burma Shave Road Signs (S438, S453b)
          From: LABLaughsClean
          on 6/14/2005

Those Grand Old Burma Shave Road Signs

TRAINS DON'T WANDER
ALL OVER THE MAP
'CAUSE NOBODY SITS
IN THE ENGINEER'S LAP
Burma Shave

SHE KISSED THE HAIRBRUSH
BY MISTAKE
SHE THOUGHT IT WAS
HER HUSBAND JAKE
Burma Shave

For those who never saw any of the Burma Shave signs, here is

a quick lesson in our history of the
1930's and '40's. Before there were
interstates, when everyone drove the
old 2 lane roads, Burma Shave signs
would be posted all over the country-
side in farmers' fields. They were
small red signs with white letters.
Five signs, about 100 feet apart,
each containing 1 line of a 4 line
couplet... and the obligatory 5th
sign advertising Burma Shave, a
popular shaving cream.

My all time favorite set of signs is:

PASSING SCHOOL ZONE
TAKE IT SLOW
LET OUR LITTLE
SHAVERS GROW
Burma Shave

Subj:     Finding Your New Name (S406b, DU)
          From: LABLaughsClean on 10/27/2004

The following in an excerpt from a children's book, "Captain
Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants" by
Dave Pilkey. The evil Professor forces everyone to assume
new names...... Use the third letter of your first name
to determine your new first name:

a = Poopsie
b = Lumpy
c = Buttercup
d = Gadget
e = Crusty
f = Greasy
g = Fluffy
h = Cheeseball
i = Chim-Chim
j = Stinky
k = Flunky
l = Bootie
m = Pinky
n = Zippy
o = goober
p = doofus
q = slimy
r = loopy
s = snotty
t = tootie
u = dorkey
v = Squeezit
w = Oprah
x = Skipper
y = Dinky
z = Zsa-Zsa

Use the second letter of your last name to
determine the first half of your new last name:

a = Apple
b = Toilet
c = Giggle
d = Burger
e = Girdle
f = Barf
g = Lizard
h = Waffle
i = Cootie
j = Monkey
k = Potty
l = Liver
m = Banana
n = Rhino
o = Bubble
p = Hamster
q = Toad!
r= Gizzard
s = Pizza
t = Gerbil
u = Chicken
v = Pickle
w = Chuckle
x = Tofu
y = Gorilla
z = Stinker

Use the fourth letter of your last name to
determine the second half of your new last name:

a = head
b = mouth
c = face
d = nose
e = tush
f = breath
g = pants
h = shorts
i = lips
j = honker
k = butt
l = brain
m = tushie
n = biscuits
o = hiney
p = chunks
q = toes
r = buns
s = fanny
t = sniffer
u = sprinkles
v = kisser
w = squirt
x = humperdinck
y = brains
z = juice

Thus, for example, George W. Bush's new name is
Goober Chickenshorts. William Jefferson Clinton
is Bootie Liverbiscuits. Now when you SEND THIS
ON use your NEW name as the subject. And remember
that children laugh an average of 146 times a day;
adults laugh an average of 4 times a day. Put
more laughter in your day.

ENJOY from Loopy Girdlebrain (Lorraine)

window: ''Our motto is to give our customers the lowest
possible prices and workmanship.''

at a loan company office: ''Ask about our plans for owning
your home.''

seen in a maternity ward: ''No children allowed''

San Diego. Dumb comments are our own. Original reference
found in the Steve Harvey column in the LA Times.

Subj:     Stupid Product Signs (S154, DU)
          From: RFSlick on 01/14/2000

In case you needed further proof that the human race is
doomed through stupidity, here are some actual label
instructions on consumer goods:

On a Sears hair dryer:
Do not use while sleeping.
(Gee, that's the only time I have to work on my hair!)

On a bag of Fritos:
You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details
inside. (The shoplifter special!)

On a bar of Dial soap:
Directions: Use like regular soap.
(And that would be .. how??)

On some Swanson frozen dinners:
Serving suggestion: Defrost.
(But it's *just* a suggestion!)

On a hotel provided shower cap in a box:
Fits one head.
(!!!)

On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert:
(printed on the bottom of the box) -- Do not turn
upside down. (Too late! You lose!)

On Marks ? Spencer Bread Pudding:
Product will be hot after heating.
(Are you sure??? Let's experiment.)

On packaging for a Rowenta iron:
Do not iron clothes on body.
(But wouldn't that save more time???)

On Boot's Children's cough medicine:
Do not drive car or operate machinery.
(We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction
accidents if we just kept those 5 year olds off those
fork lifts!)

On Nytol sleep aid:
Warning: may cause drowsiness.
(One would hope!)

On a Korean kitchen knife:
Warning: keep out of children.
(Or pets! What's for dinner?)

On a string of Chinese-made Christmas lights:
For indoor or outdoor use only.
(As opposed to outer space or underground)

On a Japanese food processor:
Not to be used for the other use.
(Hmmmm, now I'm curious)

On Sainsbury's peanuts:
Warning: contains nuts.
(No Comment)

On an American Airlines packet of nuts:
Instructions: open packet, eat nuts.
(What is going on here?)

On a Swedish chainsaw:
Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals.
(As if you try to stop *anything* with your genitals
- clearly my favorite of the list)

On a child's superman costume:
Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly.
(Way to destroy a universal childhood fantasy!)

Subj:     More Stupid Product Labels (S243b, DU)
          From: http://www.jokecenter.com/joke.cfm?id=507
          on 9/29/01

1. On a blanket from Taiwan
NOT TO BE USED AS PROTECTION FROM A TORNADO.

2. On a helmet mounted mirror used by US cyclists
REMEMBER, OBJECTS IN THE MIRROR ARE ACTUALLY BEHIND YOU.

3. On a Taiwanese shampoo
USE REPEATEDLY FOR SEVERE DAMAGE.

4. On the bottle-top of a (UK) flavoured milk drink
AFTER OPENING, KEEP UPRIGHT.

5. On a New Zealand insect spray
THIS PRODUCT NOT TESTED ON ANIMALS.

6. In a US guide to setting up a new computer
TO AVOID CONDENSATION FORMING, ALLOW THE BOXES TO WARM
UP TO ROOM TEMPERATURE BEFORE OPENING.
(Sensible, but the instruction was INSIDE the box.)

7. On a Japanese product used to relieve painful
haemorrhoids
LIE DOWN ON BED AND INSERT POSCOOL SLOWLY UP TO THE
PROJECTED PORTION LIKE A SWORD-GUARD INTO ANAL DUCT. WHILE
INSERTING POSCOOL FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES, KEEP QUIET.

8. In some countries, on the bottom of Coke bottles
OPEN OTHER END.

9. On a packet of Sunmaid raisins
WHY NOT TRY TOSSING OVER YOUR FAVOURITE BREAKFAST CEREAL?

10. On some frozen dinners
SERVING SUGGESTION DEFROST.

Subj:     More "Weird Restaurant Names" (DU)
          From: Bawdy.Net Collage #251 on 98-06-01

Tim - There is a Chinese takeaway in New Orleans with a
picture of a small Oriental on roller skates bearing a tray
of Chinese food boxes. The name of the place? "Takee Outee"

Andy - Here in Irvine, CA, There is a Restaurant called Tia
Juana's. They serve a damn fine margarita!

John - There is a tavern here in Medford Oregon called
dilligafs...{do I look like I give a fuck}

Elaine - I was just in Memphis, TN last weekend. They have
a restaurant there called "Cheeburger Cheeburger."

Stan - My favorite was the restaurant in the old Kingston,
NY, bus depot. It was called the Terminal Diner.

Mel - Have you ever heard of the restaurant opened by a
French man and a Black man? It's called "Che What?"

Richard - There is also a restaurant here in Palm Harbor,
FL named "Aunt Chiladas".

Jeff - There's a restaurant in Bangkok, Thailand called
Cabbages ? Condoms. My girlfriend's dad brought a T-shirt
back from there earlier this month. Then last week I saw
it in a evening news program about prostitution in Thailand.
Their menu's say "Our food is guaranteed not to make you
pregnant."

Wally - There used to ba a tavern in Hammond, Indiana named
"Bill's Knott Inn" on the side of the building it said
"Free Beer -- Tomorrow"

Emmy says there is a Nacho Momma's in Geneva NY.

And Mike says there's one "...here in Baltimore, Maryland,
in the Fell's Point Neighborhood. 2907 O'Donnell Street,
410-675-0898"

Marco - In Rotterdam, The Netherlands, we have a Chinese
restaurant nemed "Wan Kok". The name seems okay, until
you know what it means in Dutch: "Lousy Cook"

Cameron - at The Three Sisters in the Blue Mountains, just
west of Sydney, there is an up market restaurant called...
"The Fork- N- View". Say it quickly, you'll get it.

Ray from The Joke A Day List - My favorite named restaurant
used to be outside of Detroit. It was called the "Squat
and Gobble".

Skye - There used to be a restaurant in Murray, Utah,
called Uncle Ben's Carry Out Ribs.....right next door to a
mortuary.

And David sends the last word on this subject:
"How many goddammed "Nacho Mama" variations ARE there in
this world?

I'm thinking maybe somebody oughta figure out who started
the first one, then collect some franchise fees from the
others. Sounds like a lucrative operation for so many
Nacho Mama's to get so many rave reviews. Only goes to
show just how useful a Black Mexican can really be.
