Heh. I LIKE that! The "Miller Time!" phrase gets a lot o' use in the military and I have one such example in my Emergency Tee Shirt supply, to wit:
If a lifetime can be likened to a day, then this is Happy Hour!
Not to change the subject, but I just read a history about Polk's presidency.
ReplyDeleteWas it worth your time, Skip?
ReplyDeleteYes, but then I'm a bit of a history buff, though it was more biographical than much of anything else.
ReplyDeleteThe main impression I got was that Polk wasn't exactly a dynamic person.
I would've enjoyed hearing some of those conversations that great T shirt started in Berserkely. What a place!
ReplyDeleteIn the late '60s I taught in Columbia, TN, which is the home of J.K. Polk. He wasn't a dynamic person as Uncle Skip says, but (to offer a bit of a defense for a famous Tennessean), I found this in Wiki:
"[Among historians, Polk is known] for his ability to set an agenda and achieve all of it. Polk has been called the 'least known consequential president' of the United States.
Setting an agenda and sticking to it and doing things with positive consequences. Not too shabby. Be nice if a candidate today could claim the same descriptors.
Love the tee shirt and the imagined conversations it inspired!
ReplyDeleteWv: berates. I'll bet that's what some of them Berserkers did to you!
The T-Shirt looks like one of those Olongapo City Jobs!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOur variation was an Intruder in Swordsmen colours leaving a mushroom cloud in Downtown Tehran some thirty years ago......
Dan & Moogie: In re: conversations. You KNOW how moonbats are... they can't resist bein' all morally-superior and that. Good Times were had.
ReplyDeleteGlenn: I don't think the shirt came from Olangapo. The Polk was home-ported in Charleston with occasional stops in Holy Loch. I like yer version, tho!
