***OT, BIG TIME....but ya gotta read this... (comic relief for the day)

Hey ya'all,

I have noticed that a lot of people on this board are accused of not knowing Jack S__t. So, I thought this would help.

I did some research on this, and Jack is the only son of Ohh, the fertilizer magnatte who was married to Awe, formerly the proprietor of the Knee Deep Inn. The Schitts lived beside a creek which wound around their property, and thus was named Schitt Creek.

Not too much is known about Ohh's parents, except that they lived further up the Schitt Creek, beside the fertilizer plant. To get to the old home place, you have to go by boat, using a pole for propulsion because there is no paddle.

Ohh's dad, Daam, was married to a fine lady named Luck who was nicknamed Lucky. Therefore, Ohh became the first Schitt out of Luck.

Jack married his high school sweetheart, Noe, and they had 4 children. Deep and Dipp, the boys, and the daughters Giva and Fulla.

Deep grew up and married Thassum and they had a son, Dum, a high school dropout.

Dipp married Lotta who gave birth to a son whom they named Chycken, who was a bit of a coward, and a daughter named Pyela, who was a very big girl.

Fulla married one of the Happens boys and chose to hyphenate her last name, thus the Schitt-Happens side of the family.

Giva never married, but has 3 sons, Dawg, Byrd, and Bull.

Bull married a spicy number named Pisa; they are awaiting the birth of their first child whom they will call Lyttle.

Jack and Noe divorced and Noe remarried John Sherlock. She kept her first husbands name for the sake of the children and she is now Noe Schitt-Sherlock.

So, the next time somebody says you don't know Jack Schitt, tell them you not only know who he is, you know the whole darn family. =)

Old, tired and still not funny.

liu, do you come here just to grouse? That's a couple of threads in close succession you've "hit." If so, please go away!

To me it wasn't old, it was new. After I ROTFLMAO, I gave it to two coworkers. They laughed so hard I copied it for the admins on our floor, to make a laugh break in their day. They all appreciated the clever humor.

Thanks, Dee, whose serious posts are always appreciated too. :-)

Elaine...

Perhaps I'm descended from one of Givva's clan, in that it sums up what I think of your request for me to "go away". I have as much "right" as you to post what I thought of the above which was that is was quite juvenile humor.

liu...
So elevate us up to your level...lets hear something amuseing from you.

Lay off of Liu, she is married to a fella whose last name is Schittdonshtink.

It's okay liu...different strokes for different folks, and so on and so on... ;-) As the wife of a military man I've discovered a little juvenile humor is not such a bad thing. =)

-- Dee (T1Colt556@aol.com), January 13, 2000.

liu, you have a right to post. It would just be so nice if people who dislike someone's post could learn to allow that person the right to post without their being flamed. You have a right to your opinion. However, sometimes the courteous thing is to withhold that from expression that may be hurtful. If this were your only derogatory comment to someone on this forum today, I wouldn't have replied to it. But it was not.

You know, we have all just come through an Armageddon of the mind, and we are weary from thinking, studying, preparing, alerting others, etc. Wouldn't it be nice now if we could all be courteous, gentle, kind, and just plain appreciative of one another, and not looking to nit pick or to put down others?

If this humor helps us, then it is GOOD. A belly laugh with eyes watering, and wanting to share the humor is what this brought to an office of women who'd been working extra hard this week, due to many executives on the premises needing extra services and lots of deadlines. Dee gave them that.

Elaine,

Thanks for the post. You're a gem. I'm glad you and the gals had some comic relief in your day--God knows I needed it too! The last year has been like living in a pressure cooker. I like your quote "Armagedon of the mind"...very good description. I was hoping maybe Ed Yourdon would get a smile too...he could sure use one since he's been accused of not knowing Jack Schitt...at least now he does. LOL Best wishes. =)

-- Dee (T1Colt556@aol.com), January 13, 2000.


Dee, I know I'm a prude, and I never say the s-word, but this was so funny that I had to share it with friends! Laughed my head off every time I read it.

I'm surprised that the author didn't think to add a name to the family tree......that of the gorgeous neice named Awe.

-- Jo Ann (MaJo@Michiana.com), January 14, 2000.


Dee,

LOL! Please don't let people like liu bring you down. Keep 'em comin'! I know I need all the humor I can get.
