I compiled an epic list of       English-related bar jokes by members of alt.usage.english.usage :       https://tinyurl.com/y8o3kgoy (links to the Google Groups). I have       to put aside my modesty and say that it is really worth reading.              > I remember a song from the 1950's in which a woman       > tells her children what her mother told her when she was a little       > girl... "What will be, will be". Should you want to look up the       > lyrics, the name of this song is QUE SERA, SERA.              I know and love that song and songstress, it is Doris Day! I am       the happy ownder of a CD by AML+ with her songs remastered       straight from vinyl on esoteric vaccume tube equipment. To my       infinite regreat, AML+ passed away several years ago, and his       unique heritage is largely lost to the world.              ---         * Origin: nntps://news.fidonet.fi (2:221/6.0)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 601 123/131 203/0 221/0 1 6 360 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 664 1014 240/1120 1634 2100 5138       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 5853 8001 8002 8005 249/206 317 261/38 280/5003       SEEN-BY: 280/5006 313/41 317/3 320/219 322/757 335/364 342/200 382/147       SEEN-BY: 423/81 2454/119 4500/1 5020/1042       PATH: 221/6 1 280/5003 240/1120 5832 229/426           |
