If you could be a shoestring You could wing it all the way And come untied and take a trip To the Virgin Islands on that day. To be a shoe string… Oh, ‘tis your dream come true! To pursue it through the eyelets Stuff it in the shoe! (oo. P.U.!) {On the finger, an odor for detect... Perhaps on the type of string We should give reflect!} Better to be a string of pearls, Necking through the day! When caressing dressing on the neckling Time does walk away. ConSlithering the tongs of fork It is “Spaghetti,” I hear you say; The slips and slides of slimy strings Provoking one to food fore play. If you care to line along To share your favorite “string”, We’ll sum along the sillies To enjoy and send some grins. [This message has been edited by miscellanea (05-11-2006 06:56 PM).] |

I left my string bikini on the clothesline one sunny day along came a blackbird and stole that thing away so let this be a lesson not to hang those strings outside or you might just see that blackbird on his winged joy ride |

LOL, he'd look pretty silly flying through the neighborhood with that thing hanging from his beak! actually, it was almost a true story! Though it happened to be my daughter's red sox he stole from the clothesline, not her too-tiny bathing suit.  |

Midnitesun, You have GOT to write a prose about this! It is too good of a story not to ham up! Now, I can retire laughing and dreaming of birds wearing red socks and bikinis. Too much!!! What a hoot! misc'e |

LOL, that old blackbird got the best of me more than once. He cracked a walnut on the top of my car. It was a red Toyota Corolla, parked underneath a pine tree. That bird usually just crapped on the top of the car. But one day, he got me good. He dropped a walnut on the windshield. LOL, I love birds, but would have shot him outta that tree if I'd had anything to shoot with. Hmm, maybe I shoulda used that bikini as a sling shot!  |

my guitar strings must need to be replaced cuz the notes from this thang twang wrong and sound as if they come from another planet it can't possibly have anything to do with the fact I am not an accomplished guitar player cuz my violin has a similar problem as does the cello and the harp I must have a talk with the manufacturers they can't seem to get these string things done up right and I am really getting strung out about it |
