2. Every time I see one of those bumper stickers I think of
That last helicopter lifting out of Saigon. Seems like we were running then or something. Of course, I wasn't born until '82, but TV is wonderful.

7. Funny you should say that, I was on the second from last
helicopter off the roof that day. What a day that was, I can tell you.

And yes, there was no doubt in anyone's mind that we were running then.

3. The Only Colors That Don't Run
Are tombstones.

I lost a lot of good friends in Vietnam and I'm not eager to see any more deaths over "Dimbo's War."

4. If only my Male Poodle was alive today
Edited on Mon Nov-03-03 09:19 PM by corarose
He would PISS all over that bumper sticker.

I had a beautiful black standard poodle that would pee on everything and he boy could pee.

The colors would run after he got through. Toby was a dog that could pee on a dime.

6. AHH! Now the bears are moving too slowly!
Sorry to go off topic. They're not as freaky as they were before, but still creepy because of their slowness.

Cool graphic.

I would emphasize "SHOULD" and not "RUN", though, since that's the word that is being added to the idiot phrase "These colors don't run!"

8. The dumbest version I've seen is
a local radio station's, which says "These stripes don't run!" I'm thinking, "No, see, COLORS, as in colors that run like in the laund - oh, never mind".

Another good one would be, "Do these colors think?"
