Balladeer's Electric Shop,
He has this sign "of sorts"
"Come on in we'll serve you,
And soon remove your shorts."

Then he tried his hand,
At Optometry,
His sign was quite amusing,
If you could see to read
"If you don't see what you're looking for,
You've come to the right place,
We have got the "look" for you,
To compliment your face."

Before these two professions,
He had a fetish for feet,
He decided it's time for a job change,
And picked podiatry.
He advertised on "Prime Time"
Offered such a deal,
He had a "catchie" slogan:
"Time will wound all heals"

When he was selling cars,
His slogan was quite neat,
"Miss a single payment,
To get back on your feet"

He also sold some propane,
Gas gives him a thrill,
He'd always tell his banker;
"Tank heaven for little grills"

"Doctor Balladeer",
(His sign read on the door);
"Obstetrics-Gynecology,
I spread old wive's tails galore"

Toe,
It looks like you put some time in on this one. I'm sure he'll twist the tale of this cat and make it squeel. LOL

Oh, my, oh my! You naughty little boy!--albeit clever and witty as all get out! hehe-

-- And what would you like Santa to leave for you under your tinselled tree? Have you been more naughty than nice? Or have you been more nice than naughty? Personally, I think you are naughty--and nice!--and that makes you a very interesting boy! tehe

"Time wounds all heals" --one of the many witty lines in this indepth and thought-provoking Balladeerian Biography!

I don't think I've ever read a more interesting resume! LOL Talk about "master of none"... our own renaissance man is that indeed! LOL And he still finds the time in such an "illustrious" career to chase golf balls? LOL

I love this, sweets... the funs are pantastic! LOL

That was really amusing, especially after reading his about Toerag the mudman.
