Balladeer and Toerag
Went on a jungle trip
They stopped and set up camp
Cuz 'Deer was feeling sick.

Mosquitos, flies and snakes,
This Safari really sucked.
Not a Lion or a chimp
They decided to give up.

Then a mountain Ape
Came down from the hills,
Grabbed Balladeer's poor Mother-in-law,
Gave everybody chills.

Bally said "I've had enough,
We're going to go home."
"But what about your "mom-in-law?"
(Toe mentioned with a groan).

Balladeer replied to Toe,
"I've endured all that I can,
and though I do agree with you,
It's time to make a stand".


"Endangered species need protection,
and ape's do too-no doubt,
But that gorilla got into that mess,
He can find his own way out!"

ROFL... Ah, sweets... you know the kind of day it's been... this delights and soothes my soul. *S*

Thanks so much for showing Bal's true colors. *G* But if he thinks he's obtaining some relief, he's in for a rude awakening... I doubt the wife will be happy to have her mother so casually dismissed??? LOL

Bal's new phone number: 1-800-DOG-HOWZ!

Oh, my!
Toe, you are a valiant and courageous man who would never abandon a damsel, or a dame, in distress! You must save her from the gorilla even tho' Balladeer feels it is the gorilla that needs saving! Hurry! Time is of the essence!---and I am sure both Balladeer's wife and mother-in-law would be forever grateful to you...(just a little added incentive! Valor does not come cheap these days!)

Laughing at the visuals in my mind's eye!

Toe,
You must stay up all night thinking these writes up, old joke, but enjoyed.

Toe, LOL!  Although leaving a lady behind with the gorillas is probably nothing to be giggle about.

Right on, Toe!  That ape must have noticed the resemblance between Deer and his mom-in-law.

If you had seen my mother-in-law
My friends, you'ld understand.
That poor gorilla will find out
Things will not go as planned.

My mother-in-law was Toe's ex-wife.
That may not sound so bad
Except that makes this one fact true...
That Toerag is my dad!!!
