LongJohn don't be pickin' in your nose,
That just ain't the place your finger goes,
You can sniffle-you can sneeze
You can rub it on your sleeve,
But quit stickin' that big fanger in your nose.

Here's a message from your buddy Balladeer,
You're not supposed to stick it in your rear,
And quit pickin' at your seat
If afterwards you pick your beak
Cuz your snot will smell like something not so sweet.

LongJohn ya shouldn't pick your nose
Especially when you been cleanin' out your toes,
Cuz when ya sniff and sneeze
You'll be smellin' dirty feet
So get that dirty fanger out your nose.

And here I was, truly believing he'd had his yearly bath... and he still doesn't smell good? LOL Did they forget again to soak him in Clorox? LOL

This is a noble effort, sweetie... but I'm afraid it's futile... that sailor just won't learn good manners! LOL

I enjoyed this very much, Toe! *S*

Toe,
You forgot about him sticking his hands in his armpits to make funny noises! Them pits gotta stink too. Crude but accurate reporting, I mean writing.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Ha Toe, that will keep them busy for a while.

I heard Balladeer couldn't take it anymore and fled to a fourday golf tournament LOL
And Longjohn probably is sorry he got ashore.

Keep them coming Toe, I ain't doing nothing else than giggle overhere

OK, Toe - Your wish is my command.  Here, lemme stick my fingers in YOUR EYES!!!!  I have never BEEN so embarrassed!  This is humiliating.  This is downgrading.  This is WAR!  You are a lowly scoundrel and a scalawag!

I love it when war is declared, can't wait till  Deer returns to join the fray.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Now, Toe, you've ragged on LongJohn quite enough
Don't you know this sailor's life's already rough
So, he likes to pick his nose?
Means it's empty when he blows
But his fingernails are coated with the stuff

Though he tries to wipe it off upon his shirt
Ladies never like a snotty man to flirt
So, he sits there all alone
Tries to dial the telephone
Accidentally sends a 911 alert

When policemen come a knockin' on his door
They see something like they've never seen before
LongJohn sittin' in a chair
Flickin' boogers in the air
Hopin' for that phone to ring so he can score

Now, at home he stays all night and every day
Tried to 'pick' some friends, but none of them would stay
"That's ok with me", he says
"I'll just MAKE some fun, I guess"
Now he's a pickin' and a grinnin' come what may



Toe...Thanks for the laugh and for the inspiration, my friend.

LongJohn, forgive me, for I know not what I do.

you have not truly met the poet.

Toe darling man thank you for the smile Sometime the sun hides behind clouds but when I read you I inevitably feel it peeking out again. I’m truly not here enough at the moment. Those that know me know why that is, but when I do get in here I always seek your writing out, because it always brings warmth to my soul. Something that I’m in need of right now Thank you muchly

I’m with Suthern, Keth beloved stand with her and cheer. I of course will be cheering everyone, you know how inconstant I am.

I love this utterly, a great piece of fun


Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire

ROTFLMAO.
What a scoundrel you are!
But why is it I cannot feel sorry for the recipient of these barbs?

LOL at some of your "poetry."

Toe your pickin' on LongJohn,well it just isn't nice
I'm scratching my head here..No..I don't have lice
I just cannot figure why you'd rag poor LongJohn
Although I must say, this is really great FUN!
Thanks for the giggle!! Keep 'em coming.
