"No, ma'am, I wouldn't make fun of you." <BR/>The proverbial Blond Bombshell walks into the bar, and also orders a 'Gansett. The bartender replies in a most enthusiastic tone.<BR/>The little old lady replies, "Burtender, you said you weren't making fun of me.You were too making fun of me."<BR/>The bartender replies in the little old lady voice. "I was not, ma'am. I was making fun of HER."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-20363172263695705572008-02-02T09:00:00.000-05:002008-02-02T09:00:00.000-05:00Do you remember the other sponsors of the Red Sox ...Do you remember the other sponsors of the Red Sox in the 60's? (I think I'm talking about pre-1967, because at that point, the Red Sox had their choice of TV sponsors - before that, no one cared - except you and me). <BR/><BR/>Like you, I never tasted a Gansett, but it was always my favorite beer. It always made me want to go to Cranston, RI, to see the plant, but I never did.<BR/><BR/>Also like you, my grandmother drank Black Label. She had two before dinner every night - said it kept her regular. At some point, my brother and I became of legal age and my brother termed it "Black Death". I think I agreed.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, it is a sign of our age that we are getting so nostalgic about things like this. But I love the trips down memory lane!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
