When Mysteria Laughs... Hide! |

I hate to break the news about our dear Mysteria, But someone needs to warn the folks who live in Canada. She used to be quite serious, she used to be quite sane, But everything changed overnight when bugs attacked her brain. They crawled in during sleeping hours and caused some horrid screams, As she was interrupted in what was her best of dreams. Alas! Too late! The harm was done! Her brain's now in a knot! Which causes her to laugh with ease, but stop it she cannot! 'Cause once she starts the tears keep rolling from the Lady’s face And you best find a shelter with my brother Justin Kace, For when she laughs those tears will flood just everything and more! Lake Huron’s just a pond if you’ve seen Sharon laugh before! I know, 'cause I was over there last week, just having tea, When accident'ly our dear Lady flooded half B.C. It started with a simple grin, but ended in a roar And water started running from her eyes down to the floor. I opened my umbrella, thinking that would keep me safe, However Miss Mysteria produced wave after wave. High time I took some swimming lessons (quickly!) I suppose, In seconds I was soaking wet - the water to my nose! Well, soon the diner table drifted through the living room, The cat was hanging on the chandelier, and cursed his doom. I rather have it raining cats and dogs instead of tears, Although one cat came down hitting this pond in mortal fear. Since courage is my middle name I didn't hesitate And organized a rescue party for this poor castrate. I jumped up on the table, while the teaspoons helped me row And called upon the China flying saucers for a show. Those drifters flew and broke a few of Granny's antique cups, But got the cat - with one life less - half drowned and shaken up; I kindly asked "Please use your tail for helm and help me sail Right out the door to safety and explore this teary trail." Miraculously, immediately the door broke down in tears And down the drain we went on Myst'ry Falls to disappear Into the Teary Waterway where none had gone before and sailed for the horizon to new 'ventures and some more. And just when all was going swell, I ran out of good luck, 'Cause at this time Miss Nan came by - said: "Time to pull the plug!" And so she did - the water disappeared without a trace, Except for Sharon's red-rimmed eyes, forever on her face. Should you decide to go and see the gal who smiles with style, Please visit this poor Justin too, I'm down the road a mile. You'll find me up the old oak tree - a table right on top - And on my lap a cat, while I write "what if" tales non stop. Mysteria has promised Nan: "No laughter for a while, From now on I will only laugh with Mona Lisa's smile!" Most likely you'll be safe in Canada, if you'd ask me, Still I would take precautions if I lived close to B.C.! Justin Genious (soon to be genius, depending how soon Ron's soon truly is!  ) |

Justin Genious, you're a hoot giving Mysteria's horn a toot! We all know that Canada certainly doesn't fear the laughter of the loon when Mysteria's standing near! She is as charming as can be this lady of the northern climes and she can laugh as much as she wants for she rings my chimes! |

ROTFL, this is priceless! I'd best be careful this summer, for this northern loon will visit BC soon, and maybe Mysteria's laughter will cause a disaster, the likes of which shall make a hurricane's forces pale. |

JG, So let me get this straight... When Mysteria slipped on the ice and fell, And her panties showed for just a spell, The ice on which she did slide, Were those frozen tears while laughing she had cried? It's never too late to have a good childhood! Woohoo! [This message has been edited by Larry C (05-13-2002 07:29 PM).] |

Justin Genius darling heart this is wonderful, it’s true only you could have written this, it’s utterly utterly priceless. Absolutely perfect rhyme and meter here. I love the laughter this provoked, and I’m sure Sharon is giggling like a loon right now. There are so many excellent lines in this that to choose my favourite would be impossible, it is totally perfectly hilarious. Well done As always Mushy    To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 [This message has been edited by Marsha (05-13-2002 09:18 PM).] |

Well I am sure not Justin Tyme (I know who that is by the way), so I must be Just Embarrassed right? I am so sorry I didn't see this very funny and very much appreciated roasting. As Justin Case you didn't think I knew, there are only a few masters of rhyme like this, so I won't bother even retaliating in rhyme to give you a headache  but I have to tell you one thing Justin Genius, you got the truth right...bugs cause huge nightmares for me, and sometimes I do wake up  . However, every exterminator I meet is Justin Sane, so I put up with the bugs!This was too cute, and thank you of thinking of me. My old folks are going to howl when they hear this one. Thank you for being so creative and sweet too |

Okay now I don't know who wrote this as the person I figured wrote it didn't, give me a hint? Okay you have me fooled for sure who is this Justin Genius person? I have to stop them writing poems, with each verse the insults worsen. They claim I'm a west coast cry baby, I drowned my cat in my own tears, Someone tell me who this poet is must be one of my Passion peers? Whomever you are I'm delighted, that you found fun in picking at me, next time it will be my turn and I shall then roast thee! LOL psst - I can't rhyme worth beans but thanks for the fun! Hugs whomever you are. [This message has been edited by Mysteria (05-15-2002 11:42 AM).] |

Yanno, I'll bet Balladeer could help with those bugs that attacked her brain?...Of course, he couldn't do anything for the ones that got his but he may could help her before there's an entire infestation...ya think? |

Mysteria, I know the thought of a return to Texas makes you shudder... but we're having a bit of a drought here... Are you sure you won't reconsider?? LOL Between your tears and all our sweat, perhaps the poor plants could get wet? *G* Justin: I enjoyed this very much... You owe your life to that cat! *G* |

Thanks everybody for your time, smiles and kind words. Miss Mysteria, it's been a pleasure to bug you with some bugs. Who am I? That's one of the best kept secrets of the Blue Pages! Hmm... perhaps I'll write a tale about it someday. |

Genious I see that on these pages you are back Telling stories of the floods, and how they did attack That Sharon must be quite a gal to make a pool like this Now you know what happens, when her crying you dismiss Although I live in canada, I’m a long way from BC And with all the flooding that’s a lucky thing for me I didn’t know the bugs got in the great Mysteria brain But it seems they drove her nuts (or was that Justin Sane?) You’ll have to put her in the ‘Stute along with all the nuts Someone’s gotta catch her first…who has got the guts??? Put her in a jacket, that will keep her safe from harm Think you know the one…it’s got those big long arms Think I’ll stay here in ontario, it’s drier than BC But Justin I will think of you, writing in your tree Maybe send a fire truck, to save you from your lair Put you back into the stute,.. I think that’s only fair If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Well thank you there dear genius, but the tower was not nice I thought it was a new hotel, where chef’s might slice and dice But when I tried to check in, they showed me to a room The bell man wasn’t very nice, he really was quite rude The room I had was sparse, quite frankly it was bare I went to call the maid, but I found no phone in there And when I went to check out, the lock was on my door I yelled and got the bellman, he said I’d leave no more It turns out that the chef here, well he slices, that is true But seems that what he wants to chop, is the head with my hairdo!!!  Thank you so much Justin for posting my signalement at customs, which gave me a free room at this hotel!!! If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

I feel sorry for that Mysteria with bugs up in her brain, but until I hear they are out, she best not come here again! I'll get a bug sprayer and spray her from foot to head. Spray each and every little bug until they're absolutely dead. Well I am new to the 'Stute', Miss Fit is my name. Shame on you for poking fun at her, It puts all of you to shame!
