9. The last one is even better with the picture added

Makes a good quip great!

[Jim Lane]

22. The picture, however, is from France

I admit to some qualms about illustrating a dig at the Republicans with a photo of at the Gare Montparnasse in Paris. Bush isn't to blame for everything.

A flooded New Orleans would've been less humorous but more pertinent.

[Lasher]

24. Today's Republican's weren't alive in 1895 either.

And the Republican party of that era was not the same as the one of today. But despite all these things the illustration is a perfect representation of contemporary GOP results.

[Joe Chi Minh]

25. I expect it was a private company, and they had Westinghouse's cheapest

brake fitted. Trying to make up for lost time, too ... Sounds kind of familiar with regard to our road haulage in the UK.

23. Posting etiquette question.

The DUzy Awards use three asterisks either side of the post title.

Here, you've used six a side. Is this something only the Admins are allowed to do? I've pored over the DU Rules for an answer on this question, but I find nothing.

Great slogans once again.

[L. Coyote]

27. All I know is five asterisks are official threads

:rofl:

Everyone does what they want, but we have been using five asterisks for live blogs in GD.
