[RollTideFan] Whizzzz (Non)

2005-08-07 Thread TIDE1

An American tourist in London decides to skip the tour group and 
explore the city on his own. He wanders around, seeing the sights, 
occasionally stopping at a quaint pub to soak up the local culture, 
chat with the lads, and have a pint of stout.

After a while, he finds himself in a very high class neighborhood, 
big stately residences, no pubs, no stores, no restaurants, and 
worst of all, NO PUBLIC RESTROOMS.

He really, really had to go, after all those stouts.

He finds a narrow side street, with high walls surrounding the 
adjacent buildings, and decides to use the wall to solve his problem. 

As he unzipping, he is tapped on the shoulder by a London Bobby, 
who says, I say sir.

I'm very sorry Officer, replies the American, but I really, really 
HAVE TO GO, and I can't find a public restroom.

Ah yes, says the Bobby, just follow me sir.

He leads him to a back delivery alley, then along a wall to a gate, 
which he opens.

In there, points the Bobby. Whiz away, sir, anywhere you want. 

The fellow enters and finds himself in the most beautiful garden he 
has ever seen, manicured grass lawns, statues, fountains, sculptured 
hedges, and huge beds of gorgeous flowers, all in perfect bloom. 

Since he has the cop's blessing, he unburdens himself and is greatly 
relieved.

As he goes back through the gate, he says to the Bobby, that was 
really decent of you. Is that what you call 'British Hospitality'?

No sir, replies the Bobby, that is what we call the French Embassy.

Executive Committee Chairman Walter Harrison, however, already has set the
NCAA's sights on details as small as the spear on a Seminoles helmet.

An institution may adopt whatever mascots it wishes; that's an
institutional matter that involves their integrity and autonomy as an
institution, said Harrison, president of the University of Hartford, on a
conference call. 




(But as a national association, we believe that mascots,
nicknames or images deemed hostile or abusive in terms of race, ethnicity or
national origin should not be visible at the championship events that we
control.)

 

In that sentence right thereIt makes Fighting Irish just as 
offensive as BravesI also think they should make South Carolina 
and Jax State stop using the term GamecocksIt's arggin' animal 
abuse to fight chickensand what about Bengal Tigers That's an 
endangered speciesI'm offended that they're not more sensitive to 
the concenrs and feelings of animals and animal rights activistsJVWatts

All of this touchy feely politically correct bullshit is getting on my last 
nerve.  They should just flush the NCAA to the bottom of the sea and start 
all over.
