Are you a Turtle?
By: Jim Tudor ( Tudor Communications )
It seems like De Jevu all over again when someone asks Are you a Turtle? Recently I say a sign outside a local tavern-soliciting members for “ The Turtle Club” In the late 60’s The Turtle Club was very popular all across America. The Turtles were and are a loosely knit group of slow moving fun seekers. In order to be a member you had to be of clean mind and correctly answer a series of fun questions to receive an official membership card. Once you had the official card you were permitted to ask fellow Turtles in public places----Are you a Turtle? A true Turtle would then answer “ You bet your sweet ass I am” as all turtles were assumed to own a Jackass. If for some reason the fellow Turtle did not give the correct response he or she was obligated to buy you a drink of your choice ! Am I a Turtle?? You bet your sweet ass I am –a very snappy one at that !
Here’s De Jevu to you !
