Recently, Steve the Trade Show Display Guy (or Mr. Steve Display, as I like to think of him), inquired if we down a few Blue Beavers before writing. He also wondered if doing so made us more funny. Well, lately I’ve been drinking at least a six-pack every time just before I sit down at the computer and although I always have my most awesome ideas ever, my spell check has a melt-down trying to figure out what the heck I’m trying to say. But I think I’m building up a tolerance, because I’m only spelling one word in every four wrong tonight (although actually I’m spelling them right in my head, it’s just that the keys keep moving around before I can hit the right ones, I think my computer has a virus).
In a barely related topic, as many of you are no doubt aware by now, George Carlin went to that big Comedy Club in the sky the other day. In honour of his memory allow me to present the seven dirty words you’re not allowed to say on t.v (or the internet; they’re both such great learing tools for our children). Incidentally, I will be putting my own special spin on these: Shite, Pee, Girls-pee-pee, Frak, Boy’s-pee-pee-sucker, Motherfraker, Boobies
So let’s all do our best to never use those words when we are on t.v.(with the exception of frak); because someone might think you have the mentality of a four-year-old.

hey Ernie, thanks for the nod. I am honored just to be mentioned on the same page as the great George Carlin. He will be missed.
As to the Blue Beaver beer humor-enhancing effect, I think it works. Your noting that the words are just fine in your head, but those damn keyboard keys keep jumping around was proof positive that beer makes people funnier (especially a six pack of it).
Anyway, I’ll drink an extra beer for George this evening, and encourage everyone else to do so as well. If you’re a fellow Redneck Bar and Grill reader and don’t read this until morning, don’t let that stop you. It’s evening somewhere in this world, and probably where George is as well, having a Blue Beaver himself.

Rest In Eternal Funny Peace George. You will be missed. I’ll hoist a beer for him, for sure.

I had no idea you were such a potty-mouth.
George would be proud.

What do the following three sentences have in common?
1. “I am” is reportedly the shortest sentence in the English language. Could it be that “I do” is the longest sentence?
2. I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, “Where’s the self-help section?” She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.
3. I’m always relieved when someone is delivering a eulogy and I realize I’m listening to it.
They were all quotes from George Carlin, and represent but a piece of sand in the beach that was Carlin’s humor. ~ Steve

“And ‘tits’ doesn’t even belong on the list. It sounds like a snack!”
This, and many other routines, were part of my childhood and adolescence. RIP, Mr. Carlin.
