Isn't it nice not to have Marine 1, lawnmowers, dumpster pick up going off in the background

[Hestia]

while PBJ & VPKH speaks? * started that the day he was inaugurated as an excuse as to why he could not hear questions from press.

1. Peanut Butter and Jelly is going to speak?

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

2. I think JRB talked while eating PBJ to help practice elocution.

Myself, I use Bratwurst and beer to help with elocution. Not only does it help the speech, but the beer makes me better looking.

[rsdsharp]

3. Not that it's necessarily a drawback, but does your elocution

suffer diminishing returns the more you practice?

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

5. The more I practice, the more I drink, so yeah, it's a self-limiting strategy. nt

[rsdsharp]

6. So the brats don't counter the beer? Isn't that a waste of time and space then?

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

7. The Brats help moderate the cadence. Otherwise I just talk faster and faster, ...

So, stop, bite into a brat, try to chew and contemplate my next hairbrained idea at the same time. Sometimes, I have time enough to discard an idea before uttering it. That's generally a win-win.

8. As Ben Franklin said: "Moderation in all things. Including moderation."

Well. . . that could have been me. But it’s still good advice!

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

9. I don't think Ben was as moderate as he hoped his image projected.

I bet he downed more than his share of brats and beer.

Or pate de foie gras and wine.

11. The only character from the "founders" I wish I could meet -- Ben Franklin.

He'd be able to answer any questions I have, and we could tip o' few in the process.

[Celerity]

13. Not Jefferson as well? Definitely Hamilton too. Those 3 would be my top picks. I would tell

Hamilton to stay the hell away from Burr and duels, lol, and Jefferson to stop with the slavery shitbaggery (same goes for many back then).

[Progressive Jones]

14. Well, I guess they'd all have some questions

for me as well, being a time traveler from the future. So, yeah, those guys can hang with me and Benny.

[Treefrog]

4. PBJ?

[11 Bravo]

10. President Biden, Joe?

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

12. I'm guessing we can use his initials, JRB

We no longer have to use the letter "P" to hide the dreaded middle initial of "H" for "Hussein", which we dared not utter, because, well, because it was his middle name. Somehow, the "H" bothered people. Oh, well.

Can we now use "BHO"? Or does it have to be "XBO" (I hope not)?
