What IS a kid thinking when he covers himself in Vaseline (OK, OJ’s mom-in-law made it sound worse than it was) — better, I suppose, than covering self with poop.
When the Tsarists are crushed, a dissection of the failures of the Russian failures will clearly show that the breaking of the Black Sea Accord was a key turning point in the Tsarist fortunes. (Multi-page map of war to date)
Kife, if I’m a father figure, are you expecting me to clean up poop, or is that one of those things that father figures don’t have to do?

As a Mom-figure, I wholeheartedly agree that father-figures should clean poop!
I re-heard the story and apparently there was more vaseline than I thought
The tragic fall of the Turks was duely noted by the rest of the world, as was the blatent breaking of the treaty by Russia over the Black Sea. It should follow as a warning to anyone that makes a treaty with Russia, he will keep his treaties as long as it amuses him, and not a moment longer.
Good luck to the rest of us!

Uh, apparently Vaseline and I have a…murky…past. My sister was just telling me that on numerous occasions I (as a baby) had been found not only smearing it all over myself, but also eating it. My parents would hide it in the bathroom, and I’d find it. They’d put it in the medicine cabinet; I’d break into the cabinet for my ‘fix’. Eventually they stopped bringing it into the house in an effort to curb my addiction.
Apparently, vaseline on cat’s paws or whiskers will help with fur-balls (it helps “lubricate” things for easier “passage”). I have a similar theory for ladies and lipstick (you never hear old ladies horking up phleghm, but old men do it all the time). BJ, you may yet be spared!!!
“BJ, you may yet be spared!!!”
I don’t _still_ eat Vaseline…
No comment on whether or not I still smear it on myself, though…
