Really? Really. Is it Tito, too?

Ask your interpreter which rule requires the school's "Head Basketball Coach" to be the head coach for every (or indeed any) game. The title and the function are distinct.

As long as they don't try to arrogate privileges that they've given up for the night, I have no problem with it.

So Please Flush To Your Hearts Content ...

Not a chemist, don't have all the academic credentials, but rather, an environmental chemical analyst. And it's also true for me. As long as people keep flushing, I'll always have a job.

Did you know that the element Lead's symbol Pb is an abbreviation of its Latin name plumbum. The English words "plumbing", "plumber", and "plumb-bob" also derive from this Latin root. Thus the infamous phrase: "I suggest that the crime was committed in the library by Colonel Mustard with the lead pipe."

Secondly, if he relinquishes his head coaching duties to his assistant, but later in the game feels better and comes back can he then resume being the head coach again.
Just be sure he doesn't pull a Padgett and puke on your shoes.

Howler monkees most likely require lots of immunizations.

As a licensed plumbing contractor who also taught high school Latin in a previous life, I especially appreciate your post. Though, I'd imagine, few others besides you and I would.

You fail to sense the convenient similarities of being both an official and a plumber.
I often put up with a lot of ?%$* on the job during the day, I sometimes take a lot of ?%$* on the court at night. Easy transition from my day job to my night job.
And that ?%$* I'm talking about is my bread and butter.
Before you besmirch my beloved trade again, just remember -- every time you flush you put food on my family's table.
Next time you're sitting on the can reading your latest issue of Referee, maybe you'll be just a little more grateful for guys like me.
Don't degrade my trade. Better to say "Don't be a chemist from Connecticut about the rest."

I'm not sure what the blue font would have to do with it, but I wouldn't necessarily disagree with your latter assessment.

Covered in both high school and college chemistry.

Yes.

Ooh, I like this game. Next question: what's the lightest naturally occurring radioactive element? (Hint: its name does NOT have a Latin root.)

A plumber attended to a leaking faucet at the neurosurgeon's house. After a two-minute job the plumber demanded $150.

The neurosurgeon exclaimed, 'I don't charge this amount even though I am a surgeon."

The plumber replied, "I agree, you are right. I too, didn't either, when I was a surgeon. That's why I switched to plumbing!"

Nor do I. Nor do I lick my finger before turning a page in a report. I go through about two dozen safety gloves each day. My family doctor has me vaccinated for diseases that I've never even heard of.
