There once was a girl named

Who lived on nothing but dairy,

She sat on her rump

And started to grump,

" The gas can be so contrary. "

I don't know this " " mind you. But I know a Garden Goddess whom I

will be hitting up about eggplants in large pots quite soon. The birds

are nesting and the bugs are out. Old Stormy Kitty thinks the bluebird

house attached to ours is his lunchbox, lol. Kind of looks like a kids'

brown sack with a paw hole in it. We'll have to rig some spiked device

on the roof, so we don't have to witness him dive-bomb the " lunchbox "

this year!

Yeah, heard that before

Not bad on the limerick. Try harder.

Once, poets were magicians. Poets were strong, stronger than warriors or

kings - stronger than old hapless gods. And they will be strong once

I do not discrimate on the basis of gender when it comes to dinners.

There is a point, though, where I draw the line. <G>

Sorry, Christie, that would be out of character.

Yes. I have for some time been saying that savings and investment are the

key to economic growth, and that's precisely what I did with my money. Since

the odds of my swaying the election were astronomically low, and the

benefits would have been iffy (it could have backfired horribly if the

Democrats took Congress in 2006), donating money to Kerry didn't seem a very

wise use of it. Still, it would have been pretty sweet if we could have

gotten another one of those " government shutdowns. "

Ah. Yes, although I almost certainly didn't use the phrase " dream mate. " Due

to the unfortunate difficulties I've had with finding a suitable

replacement, she retains the title of " My favorite person in the whole

world " in absentia.
