Playing this trivia game at work…older or younger than John McLame.

Proven to be an easy game.

Nothing is older than John McCain!

This is a hotly contested point - but here’s where I got my info from: http://whatscookingamerica.net/History/CookieHistory.htm

1937 - The first chocolate chip cookies was invented in 1937 by Ruth Graves Wakefield (1905-1977), of Whitman, Massachusetts, who ran the Toll House Restaurant. The Toll House Restaurant site was once a real toll house built in 1709, where stage coach passengers ate a meal while horses were changed and a toll was taken for use of the highway between Boston and New Bedford, a prosperous whaling town. The Wakefields sold the restaurant in 1966. It burned down on New Year’s Eve in 1984.

I’m not so sure about chocolate chip cookies being younger than Mr. McCain. According to the Fannie Farmer Cookbook, they were invented by “a Massachusetts housewife in 1929.” Perhaps more research is needed on this one.

I know it’s useless to try and say “respect your elders” so I won’t say it.

Bush made better grades than Al Bore and Jean Kerry combined. The only dumb rocks are the ones who are posting on this site AND trying to chew gum at the same time. So spit yours out and try to make a sensible statement.

Obamma needs guys like you to vote for him. He won’t get us college graduates and gun owners.

“Am I being “age-ist”? Maybe. But maybe not. The world is a pretty complicated place right now and I’m thinking that it’s not such a great time to elect our oldest President ever. So sue me.”
==============================
The world is way too complicated a place to elect Obama as the most unseasoned and least experienced President ever. I want a mature, been-there-and-done-that ADULT as President, not some green kid!

What a total jerk-off site. You need to quit playing on your mommie’s computer.

Keep this up and she will send you to bed without your supper.
