Brevity by Dan Thompson for September 18, 2013

Oh Bev….. groan….(should I feel guilty?)

Meanwhile…. yeah….. that’s why in modern times we’ve learned to cal them “Greeks” and not “Greecers.”

I’m glad that these days, a lot of “roamin’ cities” are standing still.And standing…. still.

And the “rushin’ people” aren’t really in a hurry.

And when they come from the isle of Lesbos…

That’s why homophonia is considered a hate crime in 17 states.

Didn’t ET want to homophone?

Dan already did one with Mrs. Santa Claus misunderstanding Lapland.

We’ve done a Lat Moor.Does anybody have a big Finnish?

And what are people from Virginia called? A town around here is called Beecher, and the tool and die company dares not use the town name in its title.

I don’t have a big Finnish, but Secret Asian Man might. And if he doesn’t, I’m sure Kathmandu.

Epimenides the Cretan (from the island of Crete) said “Cretans (natives of the island) are always liars, evil brutes, lazy gluttons.” It’s not a homophone it’s a…a….“same dang thing-aphone.”

why some greeks are homophobic?

In the words of the Immortal Joey Ramone:There’s no stopping the Cretans from hoping

Susan, don’t they have a lot of races in Lapland? They have a Funnish line…..

Brevity always brings out the best in y’all. Thanks for the laughs this morning.

“…back from his victory over the Cretans at Sparta” (whisper, whisper) “Make that, the Spartans at Crete!”

Cruising with Ruben and the Jets.Greasy love songs and cretin simplicity. (Frank Zappa)

We have a "Honeysuckle"street that had the street sign split into two words for many a year. I guess someone finally read it.

“and hetrophonia is a big hate.”Poor Hollie. Were you trying to say “heterophonia”? And if so, do you know that refers to the change in voice at puberty? Something that very few people “hate”?Or was it some other hate you were trying to foment?

Greetin’s, Cretans!
