One time at work, I made a technical change to something and one of my co-workers asked "Who said you could do that?"
My reply: "Your mom."
He was shocked, to say the least, but I said it with a smile, both of us knowing it was a joke. It was also my way of saying "I know what I'm doing, so kiss my tuchus." (Tuchus is Yiddish for "butt".)
Lest we digress...
Another time, a different co-worker asked a similar question and I replied in like manner by referencing something about his mama. Even though I said it with a smile, it was made known clearly to me that I should not ever again make a "mama" joke around that individual. He was not happy.
Recently, I went on a "Your Mama" joke spree at work. Here are a few choice ones:
Your mama is so fat, I swerved to miss her and ran out of gas.
Your mama is so fat, every restaurant in town says "250 Patrons or YOUR MAMA."
Your mama is so fat, she puts her belt on with a boomerang.
Anyhoo...feel free to share some of your favorites.
And now for some more random thoughts....

Well it took you long enough to write a post! I love hearing how the family is doing....must post more often!
One of my fav momma sequences is the one in "remember the titans"
"Don't you know me and Berteers momma went out on the town last night? See, now you gone and upset me, looks like I aint gonna be able to take your momma to the prom"...then the HUGE guy walks up with an aching back, "What's wrong? I just gave your momma a piggy back and she weighs more than me!"
Hey Lance! Love the randomness. You don't post much anymore. I guess facebook and twitter are the big obsession,but some of us still like more depth. Glad family is well!
