Both the original post and your reply TYF reminded me of this:
Two old neighbor-ladies from Flatbush, are comparing how they spent their summer.
The first one brags, "My son left his wife at home and took me on a cruise to Italy. We went first class all the way."
The second lady says, "Fantastic!"
The first lady goes on, "We stayed at five-star hotels and ate gourmet meals everywhere we went."
Again, the second lady says, "Fantastic!"
The first lady continues, "While we were in Rome we got to see the Pope. He had a little sniffle, so I gave him the recipe for my homemade chicken soup. Before we came home he wrote me a note of thanks, and said my soup had cured him."
Once again, the second lady replies, "Fantastic!"
The first lady then asks, "So what did you do with your summer?"
The second lady says, "I stayed home and took a course from a charm school."
The first lady smugly says, "Well you certainly could use it! What did you learn?"
The second lady replies, "I learned to say 'fantastic' instead of 'bullshit'!"
Lots of you guys have probably noticed I reply "FANTASTIC!" to some of these stories... (in my best Paul Harvey voice) so now you know... the rest of the story!
