Second, I recall being sent to the principle's office in 9th grade for telling my science teacher to "Frost my willie burger" and... Third, I don't have clue what it meant... Just popped into my mind yesterday while I was doing mindless tractor work and I ain't been able to get it out... Maybe posting this will help??? I donno??? B~ |

09 May 10 - 02:59 PM (#2903212) Subject: RE: BS: Well, Frost My Willie Burger!!! From: John MacKenzie There was a building firm in the UK, called WIMPEY. It was suggested that this stood for; 'We Import More Paddys Every Year', because of the preponderance of Irishmen who worked in the building trade in those days. |

And America's favorite food (or mine, at any rate). Made with ground bison, oregano, a little flour. Oven-cooked to leave just a touch of pink, served in a good bun (large) with sliced red onion and sliced tomato, sliced old cheddar, Hunt's tomato sauce and a little salt. Undercooked? A little salmonella adds flavor! Develop tolerance! |
