death tribble Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Come Live with me - Heaven 17 I was thirty-seven You were seventeen You were half my age The youth I'd never seen Unlikely people meeting in a dream Heaven only knows the way it should have been Here today my tomorrow Where you lead I will follow All that kissing No passion missing Come live with me Kiss the boys goodbye Dinner parties followed And all my age implies My friends began to talk I began to realise If half the things they say Are quarter true of me Then how can I eclipse the youth You gave to set me free There was something in your smile That was hard to reconcile The time had come to testify to reason Though years will not erase Remembrance of those days At least there's no submission to hearts treason Here today my tomorrow No more shame only sorrow All that kissing There's something missing Come live with me Kiss the boys goodbye Now there's nothing left to cry for And there's nowhere left to go Just another hopeless fight But how were we to know The strong are sometimes wrong But the weak are never free The choice we made we can't evade Don't try to follow me Here today my tomorrow No more pain only sorrow All that kissing There's something missing Come live with me Kiss the boys goodbye Come live with me Kiss the boys goodbye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSword Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings A week ago I picked up a two CD set, with the second disc being a DVD of the Rat Pack performing in St. Louis. Overall it was a very good watch but there was a surprise I was not expecting. Johnny Carson was emmceeing the event, at the end the four of them were out on state and sung "Birth of the Blues." Johnny Carson could sing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings A Christmas Diet Poem 'Twas the night before Christmas and all round my hips were Fannie May candies that sneaked past my lips. Fudge brownies were stored in the freezer with care in hopes that my thighs would forget they were there. While Mama in her girdle and I in chin straps had just settled down to sugar-borne naps. When out in the pantry there arose such a clatter I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter. Away to the kitchen I flew like a flash tore open the icebox then threw up the sash. The marshmallow look of the new-fallen snow sent thoughts of a binge to my body below. When what to my wandering eyes should appear: a marzipan Santa with eight chocolate reindeer! That huge chunk of candy so luscious and slick I knew in a second that I'd wind up sick. The sweet-coated Santa, those sugared reindeer I closed my eyes tightly but still I could hear; On Pritzker, on Stillman, on weak one, on TOPS a Weight Watcher dropout from sugar detox. From the top of the scales to the top of the hall now dash away pounds now dash away all. Dressed up in Lane Bryant from my head to nightdress my clothes were all bulging from too much excess. My droll little mouth and my round little belly they shook when I laughed like a bowl full of jelly. I spoke not a word but went straight to my work ate all of the candy then turned with a jerk. And laying a finger beside my heartburn I gave a quick nod toward the bedroom I turned. I eased into bed, to the heavens I cry if temptation's removed I'll get thin by and by. And I mumbled again as I turned for the night in the morning I'll starve . . . until I take that first bite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Memo from Santa: I regret to inform you that, effective immediately, I will no longer serve Georgia, Florida, West Virginia, Virginia, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Texas, Ohio or Alabama on Christmas Eve. Due to the overwhelming current population of the earth, my contract was renegotiated by North American Fairies and Elves Local 209. As part of the new and better contract, I also get longer breaks for milk and cookies so keep that in mind. However, I'm certain that your children will be in good hands with your local replacement, who happens to be my third cousin, Bubba Claus. His side of the family is from the South Pole. He shares my goal of delivering toys to all the good boys and girls; however, there are a few differences between us. Differences such as: 1. There is no danger of the Grinch stealing your presents from Bubba Claus. He has a gun rack on his sleigh and a bumper sticker that reads: "These toys insured by Smith and Wesson." 2. Instead of milk and cookies, Bubba Claus prefers that children leave RC cola and pork rinds (or a moon pie) on the fireplace. And Bubba doesn't smoke a pipe. He dips a little snuff, so please have an empty spit can handy. 3. Bubba Claus' sleigh is pulled by floppy-eared, flyin' coon dogs instead of reindeer. I made the mistake of loaning him a couple of my reindeer one time, and Blitzen's head now overlooks Bubba's fireplace. 4. You won't hear "On Comet, on Cupid, on Donner, and Blitzen..." when Bubba Claus arrives.. Instead, you'll hear, "On Earnhardt, on Andretti, on Elliott and Petty." 5. "Ho, Ho, Ho" has been replaced by "Yee Haw" And you also are likely to hear Bubba's elves respond, "I her'd dat" 6. As required by Southern highway laws, Bubba Claus' sleigh does have a Yosemite Sam safety triangle on the back with the words "Back Off." 7. The usual Christmas movie classics such as "Miracle on 34th Street" and "It's a Wonderful Life" will not be shown in your negotiated viewing area. Instead, you'll see "Boss Hogg Saves Christmas" and "Smokey and the Bandit IV" featuring Burt Reynolds as Bubba Claus and dozens of state patrol cars crashing into each other. And Finally, 8. Bubba Claus doesn't wear a belt. If I were you, I'd make sure you, the wife, and the kids turn the other way when he bends over to put presents under the tree. Sincerely Yours, Santa Claus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AliceTheOwl Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Accountant on speaker: Okay, I tried entering my password and it didn't work. Tech: I reset it to "password." Accountant on speaker: Okay, let me try my password again. Tech: Make sure you type "password." Accountant on speaker: It didn't work again. Tech: Iou typed far too many letters for the word "password." Did you type in "password" as your password? Accountant on speaker: Yu never told me to do that. Tech: So what part of my sentance confused you: "Type in the word 'password' when it asks you for your password", or "I reset it for you, your password is now 'password.'" Accountant on speaker: I have a CPA, don't talk to me like that. Tech: I can make up acronyms too. I'll be in your office in five minutes. In the meantime, ponder this one: I'm OMGWTF certified. death tribble 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
