236.0. "Listen up, you muthuhs" by MCIS1::DHAMEL (I work so fast I'm always finished) Fri May 11 1990 14:50

    
    
    O.K., men (and ladies), let's get sentimental.
    
    Sunday is Mothers Day, so love 'em if ya got 'em.
    
    Invite 'em over for a brewski, call 'em at halftime if ya can't
    get together, but whatever ya do, don't forget 'em. 
    
    Remember also your wife, your girlfriend, your mistress, your neighbor
    may be somebody's mother, though not necessarily yours (unless your
    name is Oedipus.)  Remember your grandmother, your aunt, and your
    stepmother.  Remember that your second wife is also a second mother
    to your kids.
    
    To the portion of our readership that are real mothers:  Have a
    wonderful Mothers Day.
    
    A sentimental slob,

And remember that your mother could be somebody else's mother if
she hadn't married your father.  And then again, she could be somebody
else's mother too, anyway, as it is. 

Remember that someday your mother may be somebody's great-great-great
grandmother, so treat her with respect.

Don't forget that your boss may be a mother (so what if it's a guy)!

Motherhood was a mother because she had Robin Hood, and neither were
any relation to Mount Hood.

Hitler had a mother, even thought the poor woman regrets and, the 
way the world works, were all probably related to the woman somehow,
so don't put down Hitler's mother.

Hamlet had a mother, but he was pissed at her because she was his
mother and married his dead father's brother which gave him a complex,
and made the poor guy want his "too too solid flesh melt, thaw
and resolve itself into a dew"...

So, happy Mother's Day Mom, and Happy Mother's Day Hitler's Mom,
and don't forget, dinner is a 12 sharp....

    >Remember also your wife
    
    Say, what!  My wife isn't my mother.  She isn't anybody's mother.
    And, my grandma isn't my mother, either.  Geez, some people are
    certainly dupes for marketing by the greeting card industry 8^).
    
    I'll bet on Secretary's day, you bought flowers for every secretary
    you know, right?

    Today, Mothers Day, has a very strange and unexpected meaning for us
    since my wife lost her mom the day before yesterday.  She held up
    amazingly well this morning at church, especially with the priest's
    Mothers Day sermon........  And, she hasn't lost sight that she is a
    mother too.  Good woman, that wife of mine.

    my condolences Hawk and I'm sure everyone else...
    
    but we already knew that your wife was a good women, anyone that could
    put up with you for 10+ years would have to be ;^)....
    
    I'll bet your Mom and Dad praise the day you met her...

Yeah, ditto on the condolences there, Hawkster...

Any woman that could put up with you for 10+ should be named 
Wife of the Decade 8^) 8^) 8^)

    Hawk, sorry to hear about your wife's loss.  Where was she when
    she passed away?  
    
    I knew that your wife was a fine woman just by the way your kids
    act.  Say hello to Julie for me.

Yeah, Lee, if they took after Hawk, they'd all be Freakin' Lunatic Juniors,
right?
