Subject: RE: BS: Chanteyranger in hospital
And sadly Charley, I am one of those "40 Year Vets" and you're right.....somehow, you just have to chuckle.

Then too, you can sort of find a brother every now and again in some strange ways..............A couple of years back I was in line at a fast food joint (Burger King actually) and I turned to see what everyone wanted and finally gave up after much him-hawing around, I turned back to Karen and said, "Ah the hell with it, let's just get 6 double plotchers with cheese".........and the guy behind me cracked up. I gave him a kind of curious grin, not knowing what he was laughing at and he said, "That's the perfect name for these burgers! Is that from the uh, er, uh.....that uh, you know, record?"

I said it was and we talked about when we had each first heard it. Is there an American male, specifically one who went to college between 1960 and 1990, who doesn't know this?
