Sunday is for Father's Day
And from the bottom of your heart,
Show your man how much ya care
And head out to Walmart.

Let him pick out that "special" card,
One the he'll adore,
(Read it there, then put it back,
You'll save two bucks or more).

Then wait around there patiently
For a blue light sale to start,
(Not fishing poles or golf clubs)
He may fish and golf til dark.

Take him out for supper
A dinner just for two
Perhaps Big Mac or Krystals,
(They have coupons good thru June).

Then cruise on thru a graveyard,
(Flowers are always nice),
Grab a bottle of Mad Dog,
(It's quite tasty over ice).

Tell him how much you love him
On this Father's Day,
And when you go to bed that night,
Advise of your headache

Thanks for the laugh as usual. This is becoming a habit.

Toe, I have to laud you for this;
we married 30 centuries ago on
the first day of June which is
high equivalent to oft'times being
nearest to Father's Day, as well.
He took on two; I took on one.

Be that as it may, I asked him what
he might want for this day; he proclaimed
an Italian type of food-bag; but now that
he received one of the gifts from his first-
born, he's waiting/hoping that the second
is a food-card to some restaurant of her
choosing....

and I'm holding the bag of forget-me-nots
as our anniversary is the next day and he
wants for nothing...yet spells me with tales
of "wait till you see!!!" for me.

I'm feeling highly delinquent right now!

Hugs

Sunshine's been married for 3000 years??? LOL She DEFINITELY needs advice on frugality... that's a LOT of gifts through the years! LOL

Enjoyed this immensely, Toe...

I hope your Father's Day is a great one... and that you get an upgrade from Mad Dog to Fosters!!! LOL

Great poem Toe and I think I have heard
something about those head-acres myself. It

seems strange that between the ages of about thirty and fifty that the fairer sex

seem to suffer with this nasty complaint.
My commiserations my friend.
