Do you miss Ted Kennedy?

[Ralphy1]

A big celebration was held in his honor yesterday in Boston with many famous pols in attendance. The occasion was the opening of the Kennedy institute. It seems that those in attendance appreciated his efforts at bipartisanship while in the Senate. Surely you salute him for this aspect of his service as do I, and let's not be mean and bring up problems in his personal life...

 

[Ameriscot]

He most likely would have been a president if not for that 'incident'.

 

[Ralphy1]

You were asked not to bring this matter up, but I knew that you couldn't resist...

 

[Ameriscot]

You were asked not to bring this matter up, but I knew that you couldn't resist...

Very difficult to make a statement about him being president without referring to a reason why he didn't get elected. And he would have been a good one.

 

[Ralphy1]

OK, just don't let it happen again, as we wouldn't want this thread to devolve into posts of his wrenching and drinking...

 

[Ameriscot]

Yes sir.

 

[Ralphy1]

Good, and that's the kind of respect that I so richly deserve but see so little of here...

 

[Ameriscot]

[Ralphy1]

You had better not be making fun of me...

 

[Ameriscot]

Oh no, never. nthego:

 

[Ralphy1]

Hmm, we shall see, we shall see...

 

[Shalimar]

Had your wheaties for breakfast Ralphy? There ya go flexing those teeny muscles again, yawn.

 

[Ralphy1]

I eat nails for breakfast and spit some of them out here...

 

[Ameriscot]

Ohhhh I'm scared!

 

[Ralphy1]

My breakfast ain't nothin', you should see what I have for lunch...

 

[Ameriscot]

Railroad spikes?

 

[Ralphy1]

And a whole trestle...

 

[Ameriscot]

Ewww I'm impressed.

 

[Shalimar]

Humble pie? Snicker. She rocks, she does, oh yes she does! Giggggle.

 

[Ralphy1]

What are you tripping on?

 

[Shalimar]

Fond thoughts of you sitting down to a lunch of the humble pie you so richly deserve. Ah well, a girl can dream. Enjoy being a legend in your own mind, for now!

 

[Ralphy1]

Keep on dreaming, but keep them clean...

 

[QuickSilver]

Keep on dreaming, but keep them clean...

and if they can't be clean... at least wet

 

[Ameriscot]

and if they can't be clean... at least wet

I didn't care at all for his effort to win the 1980 Democratic presidential nomination from the incumbent Jimmy Carter, but I admired his distinguished career in the Senate. The fact that Scott Brown took over his Senate seat with ACA passage hanging by a shoe string was deeply deeply upsetting to me at the time.
