    I think the Comic Strip Censor wouldn’t even want Vice-President Cheney nor actor Van Dyke to be uttered like that.

    Yes. Right out there in front of the kids, the loggers, the housewives, even the cops. We mostly just chuckled…

    I wonder when that term became a slang term for the male organ. I guess find out when the last person was named Dick. That was actually my father’s first name, but he was born in the late 1920s.

    i remember a time ( in a far away galaxy..) when a friend of mine said: “watched a movie last night?” And i replied: “yes, Josie and the Pussycats!” he looked at me very akward, i did not had the guts to tell him they had “Long tails and and ears for hats” or " Come on and watch the good guys win,Josie and the Pussycats, (yeah)"

    This all reminds me of a rather tall fellow I used to know who would introduce himself to women at parties with “Hi. My name is Big Dick!” It worked rather well for him, too. Now, in the age of #MeToo, it wouldn’t be so advisable…
