Subject: RE: BS: Rate the Presidents
lol, Capt'n... Did Lyndon really say that??? I used to have a great little book entitled "Quotations of LBJ"... It was a takeoff on Mao's "Quotations from Chairamn Mao"...

LBJ was a funny man in a country kinda way... One of the quotes was "Don't spit in the soup, we've all got to eat..." Kinda sounds like something outta "Quotations from the Capt'n"... You know, real homesy...

I remember moving into a 3 story row house with a bunch of hippies back in the early 70's and, well, these folks weren't into washing no dishes... The kitchen was disgusting so my first morning I came down and, geese Louise, you ain't never seen such a mess in the kitchen so, I threw every plate, pot, pan, knife, spoon and fork out the back door into the weedy backyard... Then I went upstairs to my room, found a poster board and marking pen and wrote, "Don't spit in the soup, we've all got to eat (Lyndon Johnson)... Wash yer fu*king dishes!!! I said that" and hung over the sink... Ahhhhhh, it worked... Well, after they retrieved everything form the back yard, that is...

Thank you, LBJ...
