I don’t like my oatmeal lumpy I don’t like my tequila watered down I don’t like vanilla in my pudding I don’t like fake jewelry on my crown I don’t like words that fold in rhyme I don’t like natural plastic on my boots I don’t like people with agendas I don’t like fetid air that other's poot I don’t like fuzzy frizzies in my hair I don’t like long faces expressing gloom I don’t like creases in my blue jeans I don’t like others riding on my broom So there! - Alison |

LOL... You do know I think of you every time I see oatmeal, right? LOL I'm probably the only person that grins at every bowl of it! LOL And I wouldn't dream of hitching a ride... but my broomstick is fired up and ready to go... take me with you! *S* |

Let's gas up these brooms and haul butt, ladies! Rhymes - nothing is wrong with them until they are folded. Then they just look used. A |

I don't like people with agendas either, nor people trying to hitch a ride on my broom either, Alison. Count me in, my broom is also ready and willing! Owl |

Well, I did 2 on a broom once but that is a whole different story  ... I'm up for a solo flight with the feminine fleet. (Do they make non-lumpy oatmeal?)ebm |

I just can see you red-cheeked for the fervor with which you affirm your truths, dear Alison! A formation of free circulating smart girls on brooms? Well, flying is my forever dream, so count me in ... and should I lose the balance I simply will transform the broom into a magic wand.  Enjoyed the ride! Margherita |

Your ending is too cute, but the truth in your words hit a nerve. Sometimes it's way to exhausting to play the game. Always something special from you, A~ |
