    Hello Daryl!

    Hi, August...


    On this day...
    Little Bo-Peep
    Has lost her Jeep
    It struck
    A truck
    When she went to sleep
    Burma-Shave

    Ah.. FINALLLY acknowledging the existence of women drivers!
    <G> Before that, these Burma-things were so one-gender
    centric.

    I think of the joke where the 2 elderly women were going down
    the road, and they go through 3 consecutive red lights...amazingly,
    they didn't get hit!!

    Anyway, the woman in the passenger seat tells the woman driver
    "You realize that you've gone through 3 consecutive red lights"...
    and the other woman exclaims "Oh!! You mean I'm driving??!!" <BG>.
