Tracey got paroled just a few months back Since then she’s been doin’ real fine Bought herself a little piece a land Says she’s gonna get her a doublewide Park her cars all over the yard She’s real proud of that vintage Ford Pinto Walk around in a housedress and Birkenstocks Life don’t get much better in Ontario Other day when her Walmart credit card arrived Well, don’t think I’ve ever seen her so happy Took the pickup an’ filled the whole bed Now the girl’s dressin’ real snappy Her boss down at the Waffle House Says she’s the best employee of all Rumor has it Denny’s wants to steal her For their new one at the mall Yep, Tracey’s come a long way And I want to do my humble best an’ tell her It makes me so darn proud, darlin’ To be your porch sittin’ feller |

Oh man, you are so lucky that I’m too busy with moving to do a proper reply in verse to this. When my life calms down in a couple weeks, be prepared…the Judge Judy saga has nothing on what I’m gonna write my dear!!! And, to set the record straight, (well, as straight as she who just arrived home from a much deserved girls night out can do!!) yes..the new garage is double width and double length, but…for the MGB and the Lotus…NOT for a Ford Pinto. And as you know full well, I boycott Walmart (so don’t be buying my next birthday present there….unless you REALLY like it there in the doghouse!!). But wow, you didn’t tell me Denny’s called!!!! When do they want me to start?? Is Monday too soon??? Wow, I think all my aspirations just came true!!! I have reached the apex of my career!!! Sea…a pink gremlin??? Man, do I remember Gremlins!! Guess we’re showing our age huh?? Lol Deer…the doghouse is too good for him!!!! JM…LOVE the pic. If he weren’t so damn cute, you can bet your hot patootie he’d be flying through the air right now!!! Unfortunately, he’s already gone to bed…so I don’t even get to hit him with the rolled up newspaper yet!!! Karen…drinks??? Did I hear drinks??? Cool, I’ll have a beer please!!! If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

I'm with Tracey, I tried to boycott Walmart, but they make the best priced photo prints, darn it! And I have 100's to make. Otherwise,they never see me. LOL I am boycotting Market Basket too, if anyone has one in their area, I have great story to tell you. Duncan, you are too cute and funny. And better not mess with Tracey's cars. Sandra |

JM Explain this to me, must be a 'girl' thing (or maybe it's a 'redhead' thing)...but aren't you MY FRIEND? Is ok, don't need ya...I got Balladeer. (Good one, Dunc!) Karen Of course, it's true...have I ever mislead you? Trace Once again, you've responded to my thread as if it were your own. And ya wonder why I'm not worried about your idle threats of one upin' me. (Ya gotta write somethin' to do that, dear!) In all sincerity, darlin...there's no other porch I'd rather sit on...for now.  James That's what she keeps tellin' me! Sandra Skip the politics...thanks for thinkin' I'm funny! walker Somehow...you, I won't argue with.  Sy My pleasure to entertain ya. |

Tracey's two bits were just as good as your poem!!! I suspect you like being her dog as much as she likes telling you when to fetch!!! Fido........ |

Yep JM, he’s a naughty little puppy, but we’ll get him trained yet!! Damn, he peed on the couch AGAIN!!…where’s that rolled up newspaper!! (and it’s so embarrassing when he humps the legs of everyone that comes to visit!!)  If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

ROFL... As I read this tell-all of Tracey's secrets, I was hoping your porch had very strong screen to protect you from a much deserved reprisal... burglar bars came to mind *G* But after reading Tracey's response, I think I'll just offer condolences... even if a bit prematurely. LOL This is great, Duncan... I thoroughly enjoyed. *S* |
