Sally and Felix, they’re not the namby-pamby smooth talk types. They’ll tell you straight just what they think. They won’t butter you up with syrupy sweetness, that’s not the way they work. They just don’t believe in telling lies. Sally and Felix are bad kids. You wouldn’t let them in your house. They sleep good at night. Bobby |

well if they don't believe in telling lies, they must not be all that bad an admirable quality |

Passing shadows, Many so-called “bad” people have admirable qualities, and many so-called “good” people lie like rugs. Thanks for the read and the comment. Bobby |

Hi Robert, I enjoyed your work here my friend, sometimes rudeness can come from straight talk, better at times to feel the water and tell it gently I think, but that is just my way through life. Thanks for sharing this and have a great day. Rick |

They’ll tell you straight just what they think. They won’t butter you up with syrupy sweetness, that’s not the way they work. They just don’t believe in telling lies. Maybe they just need to learn a bit of tact. Even in the city, tact can go a long way. Course straight-shooting has its fine points too. I guess it all comes down to what makes them sleep well. Interesting to consider. A [This message has been edited by aziza (07-08-2007 04:59 AM).] |

Yo Aziza & Rick, Nah, Sally and Felix aren’t about to change the way they operate. "Sheeez--dat’s preposterous."* *Felix Bobby |
