Excuse My Lack Of Delicate Nature

~*Marge Tindal*~

When the cows come home to Uganda
I'll be waiting on the verandah
The sound will be sweet
No fart will I meet
When the cows come home to Uganda

No more methane I'll smell in the meadow
Them cowpies just won't be the same
Though the milk will be flowing
The udder way I'll be going
When the cows come home to Uganda

I'll thank the Ole Balladeer kindly
For bringing this good news my way
But I won't hesitate
Until it's too late
To poot at the ducks in Uganda

Marge

This definitely is a smelly subject but you did a great job with it.  I guess I won't go to Uganda.

Go gem 'em, Marge!!!  Funny, the things you learn in this room, I never imagined cow gas was such a problem!  Now, I wonder if these so called scientists ever gave any thought to the real causes of global warming, or is that just so much manure?

You & Balladeer are a gas. (oops) Maybe this is the wrong word to use. (LOL) But you still crack me up.  I hope no one is a   in Uganda.
Great response to Balladeer.  I'm still laughing.

Oh My! It's 3:15am and I woke my son up laughing so loud. I soo wasn't expecting to read what I did. I think I will even have to apologize to my neighbors in the morning because I'm sure they heard me also. LMAO. I will say that was kindly put into words better than I could have done...no joke. I don't even think I could have found words for that subject. Creative writing there!Too cool!

Marge you are so delightful! He he I'm still chuckling....udderly comical tail of truth for a girl just writing off the hoof. But this kind of writing is a gas and no one can hide that fact, so get out there good poet and milk the laughter from the scene. Horn your way into my heart see if I care if there's a lot at steak here but nothing that a good roast of the Canadian scientists won't cure. Butter me up an cud-dle me with your words and I'll take a leather beating anytime (gentle please) that's no bull Marge
see you around and we'll go tit for tat....
