Fear and awe Assail me For here is that I wished to see Confronted thus For now I flee Quite daunting this Reality In time most brief To return again This quest is one That has no end Such weighed beliefs On scale of fact Oft' are measured By what they lack Sometimes nonsense isn't . |

I keep telling you Moose That you should not be loose The world outside the "Stute Ain't for us right thinking fruits Don't go out there no more Don't go out that front door It's safest inside here Where we know what to fear |

Looks like you have a full deck, Mr. Moose. I read both parts and like what I read, Liz |

Ah... you are a crafty fellow there Dr. Moose. 52 words indeed! But if you noticed my second response has but only 44 words. That's because I don't play with crazy eights and there can be but one king of the 'Stute, so they are gone from my deck as well. Hence 44! Nobody shall ever accuse me of playing with a full deck... and if you check your cards you'll find your twos are missing. Now go fish cause I haven't any jacks. |

Andrew , A reply as crafty as my verse But this just makes these matters worse If my twos are missing , how can this be thus At last count there were four of us The route of four cannot be three Oh no , this can never be So if I have this figured right They're not gone , just out of sight |

Are you saying my good Moose That your sleeves are rather loose And it's your quick hand so slight That your twos are out of sight? Well, my cards are on the table Each Sportin' the bicycle lable And don't you never mind the colors Each different from the others Now draw! And I don't mean with ink. I'm watching closely. No I won't blink. I'm calling your hand. No way you'll win! What! A Five-of-a-kind! All Justin. |

Andrew, I this place that we have met Would you expect an even bet? What's up my sleeve is but an arm No cause there for such alarm ! Now in my heads another tale With which soon I will regale Of fact and fiction intertwined For now I've just mis-placed my mind |
