He said, "Boy, the Biblke says to honor your father and mother." And I said, "Yeah, well, it says 'fathers provoke not your children to wrath,' too."<BR/><BR/>Wham -- a big ol' beefy hand across my butt. I was standin' just within reach, with him sittin' at the kitchen table. But I never saw it comin'.Erudite Redneckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04830721195868387265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508594323182473801.post-47115304480239750882008-03-27T06:27:00.000-07:002008-03-27T06:27:00.000-07:00Thanks guys for the comments.

That had slipped my mind.drlobojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16167065726194359838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508594323182473801.post-14029062266699373422008-03-26T18:53:00.000-07:002008-03-26T18:53:00.000-07:00I think this may be about the bestest thing I ever...I think this may be about the bestest thing I ever did read, Drlobojo.
