VW is going to discontinue the "BUG" after about 70 years of
production


Adolph will be sad. A lot of shoulders will be relieved that
"Punchbuggy Blue.....WHAM!" is no longer played.

A kid I knew from high school got on that kick "slug-bug... POW" *he'd
hit you right in the arm. It was funny for *while, then people told
him to knock it off. He wouldnt' do it. It was funny only to him. So,
one giant kid got tired of it, and when this kid started his "slug--
bug" crap, he turned and punched the jerk *right in the gut. About
knocked the wind out of him.


Took care of that!


Actually, if the big kid had just sat down across the table from the
little, mean kid, negotiated a bit, and offered some nice concessions,
I'll bet the little, mean kid would have grown a halo. The big kid
could have asked all the other kids for money to help pay for the
concessions granted the mean, little kid.

Pretty good idea, huh?
