My dog buried my funny bone So I sit here sad and blue Don’t laugh my friends you never know When it could happen to you I left it on the back of the chair As I leaned in to pet the cat I felt a shooting pain just then And shouted out “Oh Drat!” That’s when the dog rushed me Grabbed my funny bone and ran I chased him up and down the street Till he hid in an old trash can. I saw him later, covered in mud A smile upon his jowls When questioned about my funny bone All I got from him was growls! So in my jammies, I dig all night Trying to find that bone of humor Drenched to the skin, never minding Being caught in a summer downpour So, my friends if you find that bone Please return it quickly to me Cause without that bone, I’m nothing And I’m nothing if I’m not funny!! |

Balladeer has a bone throne? Now who would ever never known? Does he collect buried bone Hiding them deep in his home To wire together into a throne? Oh, alas, how the winds have blown For DeVine has lost her funny bone It is I guess as we should've known: A throwny boney funny boney throne |

Shakespearette had her two back legs operated on when she was a pup; (I couldn't bear to put her to sleep, so I worked OT for serious surgery) so now the Toy Fox waddles. Really sad and funny at the same time, but she's mine and I love her. Licks and Kisses. |

A little over a year ago, we offered to babysit a dog for a friend. Up until today, we kept him..he's a wonderful, kind, loving black Lab. My in-laws in Chicago lost a dog recently (and we have 2 more dogs) so they asked if they could have him. We were sad to see him go, but knew they would love him. So off he went to Chicago today. The point of this story is: The former owners named him Hooters. So as of today, my Hooters are in Chicago!!! |

Sharon, you are a riot. Why don't you come up here, and we'll go rhyming at some poet's pub. Hey, you're all invited. Leave the pets at home though, Shakey doesn't like competition. |

Poet deVine, jammies and bones!! I'm speechless! Keep your eyes peeled for bottles as you dig (It'll take several U-Boats for them to decipher that PDV) Yes, I admit your general rule. That every poet is a fool: But I myself may serve to show it. That every fool is not a poet. |

hehehe ... thanks for the laugh, Sharon -- I needed it this morning! --Kess Full fathom five thy father lies, Of his bones are coral made, Those are pearls that were his eyes; Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange... --William Shakespeare, from The Tempest |
