argh!!! egad!!! hoist by my own petard!!! the chickens come home to roost!!! TWICE in one day, no less!!! :)

thanks, folks! :) i hear that imitation is the sincerest form of flatulence. :)

so i guess i'd better step up to the plate and swing away, lest i be put to pasture like the olde cowe some folks think i are! ;)

FFFFFriday by Unca Joel

hear i sit, all down-hearted, 'tis Friday, and i can't get started. a story, joke, an ode or pome, i need to write, a little tome of wit or wisdom, mirth or glee, but nothing bubbles up from me.

am i so burned from Fridays past that nothing's left in me at last? no more lame verse to mock our cars? no stupid songs unheard in bars? with wrinkled forehead o'er mine eyes, my tortured mind doth seek the prize.

a silly song? no, not again. a sonnet, then, from way back when? an ode, perhaps? nah, that's too long; you're better off with silly song. oh, fuddled mind! am i too beat? is nothing left that ain't repeat??

oh, well, it's not the worldwide end ... i guess, next Friday, try again to see if verse or song is writ continuing this Friday bit of Folly Funnies on the List ... and hope today it won't be missed.

unca joel :)
