used to call someone and ask them if their refrigerator was running. Usually the person would say yes and the young one would say Better run after it before it gets away. Then there was Do you have Prince Albert in a can? Yes they did. Better take the lid off so he can have air. Now I will not sleep tonight with other jokes going through my mind.
