Ha, that reminds me of a time years ago when I commented upon a warning label (of the "don't use the hair drier in the shower" type) and my dad said, "That's because there was this ONE time when some dumbass.. "

I got divorced because my marriage was about as fun as being a computer salesman in an Amish village.
I'm glad I left the Pennsylvania Dutch community with its backwards ways, but sometimes Amish the simpler life.
There seems to be something Amish with this thread; I hope we can fix it.
Telling jokes such as this to Ezekiel Jeremiah Scholtz would be Amish-take.
I have worked with the Amish many times and they are a pretty funny group once they get to know you. They told me the mechanic joke and many others. The first time I worked with them I had just got back from a 4 month job in Germany. They of course spoke in German to each other. After lunch on the third day I asked where the level was in German the leader pointed and then a look of terror came over his face and he ask if I spoke German. To this I winked and said the slang they were using was hard to understand but I got most of it. We all agreed to speak English after that. To this day I will never forget the look on his face as he tried to remember what he might have said that he thought I was out of the loop on.
For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism.
There is nothing more terrifying than ignorance in action. (Goethe)
