You bet your sweet ass I am.
1) I really couldn't help myself. I HAD to post this.
2) Please pardon the 'bad language' (I know that the word 'bet' offends
some people, but hey, sometimes you just gotta say 'what the f--k). Tho
I never did figure out how to pronounce the 2 dashes.

I happen to still have my membership card. It reads as follows: FRONT: International Association of TURTLES Date 3/4/80 This is to certify that Mark C Baker is a member in good standing and will remain so as long as he continues to give the password when asked by a fellow turtle. OFFICIAL Imperial Turtle MEMBERSHIP CARD <signed> S P Turtle BACK: As a member in good standing you can subcribe new Turtles as follows: I. We assume all prospective turtles own a Jack Ass. On this assumption is the reason for the password. This password must be given if you are ever asked by a fellow member, "Are you a Turtle?" You must then reply, "You bet your sweet ass I am." If you do not give the password in full because of embarassment or some other reason, you forfeit a beverage of his choice. So always remember the password. II. To become an official Turtle you must first solve the following riddles: 1. What is it a man can do standing up, a woman sitting down, and a dog on three legs? (Answer: Shake Hands) 2. What is it that a cow has four of and a woman has only two of? (Answer: Legs) 3. What is a four letter word ending in K that means the same as intercourse? (Answer: Talk) 4. What is it on a man that is round, hard, and sticks so far out of his pajamas you can hang a hat on it? (Answer: His Head) III. You are now a member of the Turtle club. Govern yourself accordingly and procure new members. -- -- Mark
