BS: Ever had a dream about Joe Clark?

If you don't know who he is...he's a former Prime Minister of Canada, and former leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada.

I've never had a dream about him. I've never met anyone who did.

Have you?

No and no, but I'll probably dream about Joe tonight, thanks to you.

I don't follow you, Susan. Is there a "young Joe Clark" who's been prime minister of Canada?

Little Hawk, that's the name of an old fiddle tune. Inevitable, I guess, that other people have the same name. :)

But I am still hoping to meet Cotton-Eyed Joe.

Oh, I see. ;-) Well....okay. Look, I'm sure someone has had a dream about Joe Clark, former prime minister of Canada, who is now quite old, and if they had...we want to hear about it!

Joe Who?

That's a Canuck joke. Not a good one, but...

I have never dreamed about Joe Clark but tonight I will try. I hope it won't be one of "those" dreams, but if it is, I hope I'm the boy. Actually, the more I think about it, the more I don't want to dream about Joe Clark.

I dream all the time about people I've never heard of. I get a better night's sleep that way.

Heh!

Look, what would be worse...Joe Clark or Clinton Hammond? I ask you.

How about this guy a PM? He's running for the leadership.

I had a dream about Joe Clark and Jack the Sailor getting it on.

Then I woke up and had to puke.

That is horrific. Pass me a bucket. I think I'm going to puke. Forget it, I'm using my Stetson.

I dreamed I saw Joe Clark last night
Alive as Phelan Brady
I dunno why I dream this crap
Midlife crisis maybe...

Beat me to the post, Mr. O'L, but I did have a similar dream:

I dreamed I saw Joe Clark last night.
I knew him by his chin.
I said, "Oh, Joe, it's sad to see
The shape your party's in.

An Alliance wonk is now ensconced
Atop the Tory heap
And when he grins his lizard grin
My flesh begins to creep.

The second fiddle's called Mackay
A treacherous sort of villain.
He lost at love so don't play cards
With him--not it he's dealin'."

And standing there as big as life
And choking back a sob,
Joe said, "It would be so darn cool
If I still had the job.

I'd run this country, run it right,
The way it oughta be,
But since I'm not the Tory boss
I'm voting NDP."

Bravo! Marvelous, Bob. The greatest thing is that most of the Americans will have no idea what any of that is even about. ;-D

C'mon, gnu. Tell the WHOLE joke ...

Knock, knock!
Who's there?
Joe!
Joe Who?
Ah, c'mon, Maureen! Let me in!

Not only do you have to be Canadian to get it, you have to be Canadian Of A Certain Age.

I'm feeling old.

Bob - excellent!

Heh! Heh! Poor Joe. They were really cruel to him, and he's basically a very decent man.

I did dream about a ploititian once but he wasn't called Joe!

Is a ploititian someone who concocts clever ploys?

Because people are dreaming about George Bush, and I didn't want Joe to feel left out.
