Thanks so much for sharing your humor! I just found your blog and I enjoyed reading other posts too. I laughed so hard at this post I printed it out and read it to my stand up comedy group. I heartily encouraged them to check you out. This also inspired me to write a post on possible pick up lines from fictional characters. Here’s the link if you’re interested in checking it out: http://comicprincess.blogspot.com/2010/03/59.html. Thanks again!!
I like it!
Thanks for the LOL op. I needed that.
Oh, sure, Ric. Laugh it up. But you know you're picturing me naked.
John Shore: Hey, wanna blog?

Arrr, Now I know where I can bury me' treasure. (personal favorite)
Great stuff. I really enjoyed them all.
I’m afraid I didn’t quite get the joke with what you wrote here, but I can DEFINITELY tell you that the Lincoln one was the hardest. And yet, at the end, it was one of the ones with which I was most pleased.
And (believe me) keeping it clean WAS the challenge with these.
John –
I read these to Hunky Hubby and he said Lincoln’s should begin, ” Fourscore… and if you came along …”
(Keeping it clean… Fill in the blanks…)
The brain child of my freind Ryan, of which I am pround to have contributed a couple:
Top 10 Courtship Pick-Ups:
10. “So I talked to your dad last night…”
9. “I lost my phone number. Maybe through a purposeful relationship, we can find out if I’m supposed to have yours.”
8. “Your Bible…or mine?”
7. “We’re perfect for each other. Our parents have so much in common!”
6. This one comes right out of the book of Song of Solomon, “You’re so, so, how can I say this biblically? Your teeth are like a flock of ewes that have come up from the washing…Your hair is like a herd of goats running down a mountain!”
5. “Do your feet hurt? ‘Cause you’ve been running through God’s plans for me all eternity long!”
4. “Let’s get our siblings together and go out sometime.”
3. “I can’t wait to see what you look like at 50.”
2. “Your modesty’s showing.”
1. “My parents are back in town. Wanna come over?”
Excuses and Warnings:
Joan of Arc: So Burn Me at the Stake
Molly Brown: Unlike the Titanic, I’m unsinkable
Hedda Hopper: “Nobody’s interested in sweetness and light!”
Annie Oakley: Always remember I’m an expert marksman
Mother Jones: Only if you’ll join the fight “My address is like my shoes. It travels with me. I abide where there is a fight against wrong.”
Oh. Wait. Never mind.
WHAT would be five????
Ummm… It would be five….
