Ah, the prologue ti The Canterbury Tales. Had to memorize that in high school, senior lit. Mr. Henninger’s class. Everyone calls him “Hapy Jack”.

Just tell her to calm down.

You can't tell an Italian wife to "calm down"... it's suicide, man! :giggles:

FYI... I'm married into an Italian family.
Then again, my mom was Polish. That's even just as bad. :giggles:

Made a paper airplane from a sheet of paper. When I threw it, it stayed in one place and hovered.




Then I remembered it was stationary….

Me too, in Senior English, for Mrs. McIntosh. One day, as I was rehearsing that (oh yes, we had to stand before the class and recite it), my aunt came by. She heard me and started reciting right along with me! Turned out that she had had to learn it back in the '30s and still recalled most of it. :grin: I get bogged down now after the first dozen or so lines... :whistle:

What do you tell a woman with two black eyes?

Nothing, she's been told twice already...
