THE TURTLE CLUB
THE TURTLE CLUB IS A PRIVATE CLUB WHICH THE NIXON FAMILY
ALL ARE MEMBERS OF. THEY WAY TO BECOME A MEMBER IS WHEN YOU
ARE ASKED "ARE YOU A TURTLE?" YOU REPLY "YOU BET YOUR SWEET
ASS I'M A TURTLE." THE WAY TO STAY A MEMBER IS TO SAY THE
REPLY ANYTIME THE QUESTION IS ASKED.
Submitter comment:
THIS IS A LITTLE GAME THE NIXONS PLAY AMONG THEMSELVES IN WHICH
THEY ASK EACH OTHER THE QUESTION AT MOST INOPPORTUNE OR
EMBARRASSING MOMENTS.
