Sept. 4 bashbro1 Men's 70 267 posts | Those daring “Nattering Nabobs of Negativism” in their old flying machines… they go uppity up up, and they go crashity crash down...they zoom innity in in, they zooom outity out out! "Nattering nabobs of negativism" is one of the most popular phrases associated with U.S. Vice President Spiro T. Agnew, who served under Richard Nixon until resigning in October 1974, after pleading no contest to charges of tax fraud. Agnew, who had a particularly acrimonious relationship with the press (and senior softball if he had a chance?), used this term to refer to the members of the media (i.e. the members of senior softball msg board), whom he also deemed "an effete corps of impudent snobs, marked by self-indulgence, triviality, and pure decadence. -------------------------- Okay enough of that, lets count the votes!

Sept. 4 Hit the gap Men's 70 154 posts | Bashbro1. I thought we were going to let this subject die a slow death. By the way, judging by the number of posts on the SSUSA board and the number of other e-mails you send me, you have waaaay too much time on your hands. LOL :-) Freddy T First American Title 60's |
Sept. 5 4x4 Men's 65 601 posts | Hey Bashbro you must be one hell of a Scrabble player! Maybe we could platoon in Scrabble and just have one person select the letters and another play the letters! It would sure cut down on the possibility of fatigue and injuries. |
