In Response To A Castrol Ad













All I know
is that if some Irishman
came running up to me
and smacked my ass with a dipstick
I'd kill 'im.

How's that for thinkin' with your dipstick.....Jimmy?

Thanks guys

Seems my thought bucket had sprung a leak, and this was all I could come up with. Maybe one day I'll revise it into a real poem. ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- - "I wound her up, an' I shifted down, an' I offered this prayer to my Lord: Said, God, get me back home to Houston alive, an' I won't drive a truck anymore..." - Steve Earle

Hi Shan

Castrol is a brand of motor oil. They have a commercial on the television where there are all these people who aren't buying Castrol oil, and an Irishman comes up to them, and whacks them in the ass (butt, rear end) with a dipstick (the stick in the engine that you can pull to see how much oil is in the engine) and says "Think with your dipstick, Jimmy!" So, basically, what I was saying was that if someone smacked me with a dipstick, I'd kill them. Hope this helps. ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- - "Atheism is a non-prophet organization" - George Carlin -"Don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things" - George Carlin

No Kidding

I'd do more than kick his castrol butt. I'd castrate his castrol! I know the commercial and first time I saw it I was thinking, you'd be dead or wishing you were! Respectfully, Rett: Next time you think you're perfect, walk on water! For the sake of children, read this. http://www.neopoet.com/node/19905
