Bones has a client
that gives him something
really nice to drink.  

A little hot toddy
makes Bones feel
all warm inside.  

Bones likes a little
hot toddy
when he works.  

That way he doesn’t
feel near so bad.  

Bones could get used
to a little hot toddy.

Thanks dear RDB,

Yes, there's nothing like a good hot toddy.  I haven't had one since I was little.  I don't know why it popped into my head after all these years.

We all wish for something better for Bones.

Love Bobby

My Dad used to make us kids a hot toddy when we had a cold. Seemed to work.

Bobby, I  enjoy this lewd one and  I am reminded of the tongue tied weatherman : “ Hot toddy and hot tamale.”

Thanks Yann,

Hot toddy is a mixture of hot water, sugar and wiskey.  Some parents will add clove or other spices to make it taste good.  Some parents give it to their children when they have a cold.  It makes the kid sweat, and cures them.
