Now Toerag is one lucky fella,
All his dreams come true.
He saved then spent all he had,
To buy himself a tooth!

Now he smiles a lot more often,
Though he hasn't dreamed enough.
He should have held some money back,
To buy his first tooth brush.

It won't be long before he'll cry,
"Why must I do without?"
If he owned the gold in Fort Knox,
He'd have TWO teeth in his mouth.

Though the Tooth Fairy is not fickle,
And she'd love to give him more,
She can't get within ten feet of him,
For the loudness of his snore.


(He sounds like four cats yowling out back in the alley late at night, and y'all KNOW how I feel about cats!  lol)

We've been up in beautiful Boston and out on the Cape - So my reading time has been way-layed.  Thanks for the warning.

Ms deVine - How can a toe snore?  Just ask him - after all, his feet really smell, so why can't they snore, too?  lol

Sy - We'll ALL be waiting for his reply - you'd think that the local library would let him use their Commodore 64 to sign on more often than once a month - lol

Mark - Lil Lorelei LOVES that graphic - as for me, I wish you wouldn't post it - I've already kicked my monitor three times, and if I see it again, reflexes may take over and it'll be number 4!  lol

'Deer - Your comment reminds me of the question that was given on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?" the other night -

"What has 1000 legs and 3 teeth?"

Answer - The ticket line to a WWF match anywhere in Toerag's part of the country.  lol

  All the gold in Fort Knox would only afford Toe two teeth.  It seems that he'll need the gold in Fort Knox to keep a tooth in his mouth, because it appears that you and Balladeer plan to keep knocking them out.
  I'm still laughing from this one.

In defence of Toerag, his feet smell cause his nose runs.
Loved this. I hope Toerag appreciates how kind and generous you are to him.

So it's the thought of another tooth
That sets his heart a'flutter?
(I thought it was you and Balladeer
With your minds in the gutter!) *G*
Not to fear, that Toerag dear
Is welcome to all of mine -
A nice long soak in Polident
And they should do just fine!

So that's what Toe uses that old rag for.... He can't shine his shoes, so he polishes his tooth with it...

It is good to see you back again, LgnJgn, you've been missed!

And Toe, well now, he's a man who won't get kissed!

I know I shouldn't have, but I just could not resist!

Now I'll stop sputterin', only stay if you insist!

Wish I could wish upon a star anew
and say again, darlin' if you only knew!

BTTT,
John,
you'd better write soon we're re-reading all your old stuff and you KNOW you don't want that to happen.
Be well
