What a list. Cubs, never, but if the planets align and Cloris dances, then maybe, just maybe.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Yes, Tiger Woods can boink whomever he pays. He's still a creep.
I so love this! Especially the single mom paying less tax than the rich - that is one thing that totally PISSES ME OFF, that multinationals get tax breaks, bailouts and subsidies, and poor people pay a bigger percentage of their pittance than the wealthy. Argh.
ReplyDeletei gotta admit, seeing the guy get tackled at home plate by the ump was pretty amazing....some really great ones in here though...the girl singer....the single mom....i am all about it man...
ReplyDeleteIm smiling...you are so clever.
ReplyDeleteThis was great, and I'm with you on the matadors and Charlie Brown (among others).
ReplyDeleteOh no, Columbo can't be hoodwinked! And I won't get into politics ;P ... so I liked most of your poem. :)
ReplyDeletewell done...me too on a lot of those like to sees.
ReplyDeleteI love your humour. Stephen Hawking and the lap dance made me spill my tea. Must make certain never to read you with a cup in hand:)
ReplyDeleteTHINGY: "Whomever he pays"...that's rich!
ReplyDeleteSHERRY: I hear ya, darlin!
BRIAN: Haven't seen the umpire tackle the base runner, but sure would like to!
EVELYN: Aw, go on with your bad self.
KERRY: We're on the same page, for sure.
MARGARET: Columbo had an uncanny instinct, didn't he? Or maybe it was just the script writers.
LAURA: Thanks for being here (and there)
RALLENTANDA: Oh, let me help to clean you up...here, we'll just rub that spot right out...whoops, you know there's just no controlling my hands sometimes...
Sharp slap to the cheek with histrionics and French expletives:)
Delete... good doggie woggie :) the rest is optional ... :)
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see Charlie Brown kick that football too!

ReplyDeletethere is the link for you man...
There are some things in there man wasn't meant to see, Dr. Timo--in your mad scientist lab, tampering with mysterious sacred mysteries to advance the knowledge of all mankind, you may have missed that(I'm referring to Hawking and Bono--nice thoughts, but...no, don't want to see it.) I'm pretty much on board with the rest.
ReplyDeleteI would like to see.....a few of the huge talents that I read in our little universe go on to great things with their writhing....Loved this man...great job.
ReplyDeleteyep...would love to see some of these things as well.. reminded me a bit of ..i have a dream...
ReplyDeleteI would like to see quiet a few of those things too. wonderful soul you are, http://leah-jamielynn.typepad.com/
ReplyDeleteI just have to cheer for the underdog too!
ReplyDeleteRALLENTANDA: Ooh...I love anything French.
ReplyDeleteHEROTOMOST: I second that emotion.
BRIAN: Thanks for the link, I checked it out. I thought the ump should have called the guy out or safe at home plate--would have added a humorous touch!
HEDGEWITCH: I can understand that--now that I think about it, I'd still like to see the Hawking thing happen, but don't want to be an observer when Chaz gets her/his new parts!
THANKS SO MUCH TO HEROTOMOST, CLAUDIA, SEMAPHORE, CAT, QUOTES, PHOTOS, ETC., AND RAZMADAZZLE FOR YOUR COMMENTS!
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE:
ReplyDelete__The return of Statesmen, and the demise of Politicians.
[Politicians (to me) are as likeable as a fart in a phone booth;
if anyone remembers... "phone booths."] ;<) _m
Brilliant/poignant/funny as ever--- a penis for the Chaz! I love your world...xxxj
ReplyDeleteAh, poor Charlie Brown :) And, I think I'll try to stop apologizing for speaking my mind. You've inspired me. Good to see you again!
ReplyDeleteMAGYAR: I guess that's one advantage that the cell phone era has brought us! Hhaw! (I think the only one who remembers phone booths now is Superman...I wonder how he could stand his own SUPER farts in there!!!)
ReplyDeleteJEN: Thank you my dearest. Yeah, I think Chaz is planning on getting that little piece of equipment one day...question is, what's he going to do with it?
LORI: If I've inspired you, then I couldn't ask for more!
This is awesome, love it!
ReplyDeleteChaz Bono is more likely to get a penis than that working mother in Detroit getting a lower tax rate than Mitt Romney is. What a world *sheesh*
ReplyDeleteTHANKS, AYALA, for your regular visits.
ReplyDeleteSELMA: That's ironic about Chaz and the working mother...Chaz gets a penis, but the working mother is the one who gets screwed!
