Rhymes R Us: My Limericks Survey

Put on your best thinking caps, Dear Readers! It’s time again for our lovely local bookstore Eagle Harbor’s annual limericks competition.

Which means, yes, more terrible limericks from me because I value your opinion so much and the Hubs doesn’t like any, I am offering a few samples to see what you can stand like the best!

Oh, and unlike prior times where they had Bainbridge Island as the theme, this year’s theme is books!

Please tell me your fave in the comments!

1. A book can help with balance as you walk,
Or guide you to parler, sprechen and talk.
Worlds open wide,
And from life, you can hide.
So unite, bookworms, and never be mocked!

2. A book is the best kind of friend,
Loyal and constant, unlike the wind.
Fulfills all your needs
From laughs to chicken feed,
And props your table leg in the end.

3. I love shopping for books on a Sunday,
While churchgoers seek Grace for their stray.
Nothing leaps from the shelves
Like color spreads of nude elves,
Which I’ll lewdly drool on while they pray.

Please be honest in your comments, and realize I spent ten minutes valuable writing time on these and put my heart into them!

Thanks again for your valuable reading time!

manpris — coolness or just plain dumb?

manpris.jpg I give you Exhibit A, the Manpri pants.

I saw a guy here wearing these and couldn’t quite decide (NO, I didn’t take his picture. What would a man in manpris do to you if you took his picture? Karate chop? Scratch your eyes out? It’s a wild card.).

A few years ago I realized the Pacific Northwest has the perfect weather for this type of pant, sunny but cool. But this style on a guy?

Why, oh, why would a guy wear these? Maybe for the same reason as me? I mean, this guy had the hairiest legs ever.

dsc_0025-1.JPGPlease take my survey, reader. Me and my pigeon want to know your thoughts.

(Like the gratuitous pigeon shot? He was in my backyard recently, devouring all our bird seed.)

at least I know music from the 70′s…..

I may not know what Fergie sounds like, but gimme 10cc on a quiz, and I rock!

Ah, those were the days, listening to 45′s on my little white and red record player with the AM/FM radio. Mixed in with the Bill Cosby records, too, of course.

Do you realize there are no more “B side” songs? *sniff*

Are you interweb surfers out there too young for this test? Try it!

micro-managing at 4

images.jpgSince Kid had yet another half-birthday party at school recently (But THIS TIME I knew about it ahead of time! Ha ha! Preschool, you can’t get me TWO years in a row! Last year, you saw me run out panicked after drop-off in search of any remotely fresh bakery cookies; this year, Kid and I made CUPCAKES with SPRINKLES ahead of time! Take THAT! (AND could I have a LONGER parenthetical aside??)), her WHOLE birthday is embedded somewhere in every conversation she has.

She is planning all aspects, just like last year. This time I have not been uninvited…..yet.

Most recently, the party details included the cakes she wanted (3). Said cakes were to include the following themes: doctor, princesses, and Hello Kitty.

Said themes were provided in order to satisfy allll partygoers, girls AND boys AND (*gasp*) girls who don’t like princesses.

With yours truly as scrivener, Kid laid out which CHILD will be partaking of which CAKE. Yes, three separate lists, 16 kids. Who said preschoolers have short attention spans?

My question to you is WHICH CAKE do you think Kid selected for herself?

I am eggnog, and you?

Actually, I was hoping for fudge. To eat. At this moment.

And you?

So, my question to you is…

If you were a millionaire and innocent of drug usage charges, would you fight those charges?

Swiss tennis champ, Martina Hingis says “no.” Instead, she retires.

Hmmmm.

She stated that she was 100% innocent and that her lawyer said she had a good case against the positive drug test results taken this summer during Wimbledon. So, naturally, she heads to the court of Public Opinion rather than clear her name.

A sad way to end your career, I say.

But, then again, maybe she is laughing all the way to the bank. You don’t lose your endorsements this way, do you?
