Welcome to the Boardroom Ray, I spray painted the hall red so I wouldn't have to keep dragging the carpet out. Besides Confuzzed didn't wipe her feet last time...

Hey, Ray! You ripped that poem off from King Friday on Mr. Rodgers neighborhood! Just like a Board Member, steal someone else's idea and claim it as your own.
WFTR- Is that where it came from. I remember one of my friends telling me that back in high shcool. I thought it was funny and quirky enough that I have always remembered it. I never knew where he heard it. I knew it wasn't something he thought of. We weren't that clever.
Heck, as long as he's floating on the liquid solution, just give him a coffee can. EWW!
You know what's funny? I remember that poem from Mr. Rodgers but I really didn't like the show. That silly version of "Row Your Boat" just stuck with me.
You know, the bad thing about those little ditties is that I learned them before I actually understood what they meant. Now keep in mind that the red in my hair did not come in a lot until a little after high school, so there were many blonde moments with those little ditties involved. I was never as stupid as my sister, though, who actually sang one of them to my MOM. Oy.

There is a great Irish Pub right near DePaul University in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago. It's called Irish Eyes, and they always have really good pub singers. The drinking ditties are funny, infectious, and most often inappropriate. Of course, those are the ones that stick! I need to get as adept at remembering scripture verses.
Trish- I know how you feel. For the longest time I thought the saying about wearing too much perfume was "you smell like a french horse" You know what it really is right? hope I didn't offend anyone!
Wef- My brother went to DePaul!!! He's younger than you though.
It's like learning a foreign language, WFTR. You ALWAYS learn and remember the cuss words first. I can cuss in Greek, Spanish, French, German, Korean, Turkish and English (of course). The only language that I know a little of that I don't know the cuss words in is Japanese and that's because a teacher taught us to count to 10 in Japanese. The others I learned from people that actually spoke the language.

Star, the funniest one that I ever heard was a coworker of mine that thought the phrase was "Well, that as useful as t*ts on a board." I about died laughing on that one. In case anyone doesn't know, it's BOAR, like a male pig. She didn't believe me when I told her that. I had to explain it to her. I think she still thought I was lying to her.

2. that is wierd that row row row your boat came up because i just watched star trek the final frontier and kirk, spock, and dr mccoy sing it a lot in that movie.
Did you ever notice Mr. Rogers will walk in take off his shoes, put his slippers on, but when he leaves he takes his slippers off and walks out the door without puting his shoes back on?
