If Admiral David Farragut had yelled "Dam the beavers! Full speed ahead!," it is doubtful he would have enjoyed much notoriety in his later years.

Chicken Soup

My nephew had a poultry farm! (His stock just numbered two.)
He planned to breed some more of them, but then one got the flu.
Now, Medicine is not his strength, but he worked for the group.
He nursed the sick one back to health. He fed it Chicken Soup!

That’s right, he killed the healthy one, to make the sick one strong.
And you may think this makes no sense, but then you have it wrong.
For business, it’s crazy, but that’s not where he leans.
He’ll be a whiz with all the biz of Government Machines!

Where this new math can operate, increases are called cuts,
And taxes are investments. In other words, it’s Nuts!
My brother’s son will fit right in. He thinks that way a lot.
If you call, and you hear strange advice, my nephew’s who you got!

"I am water. I will flow. There is no place I cannot go.

Hmmmmmm....................



"I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore"

"I am water. I am Life.
I am joy amid the strife"


"I am woman watch me grow
See me standing toe to toe" Helen Reddy May 1972

Hey!!!!! Whats going on here????
Is NicknamedBob a closet feminist?
Or is he proclaiming his feminism from the roof of his Maryland Estate??

Or is it more insideous than that?
Is this a "code poem" to ,dare I say it, take over the world??????

[Alamo-Girl]

LOLOLOL! Precious!

[NicknamedBob]

"Is this a "code poem" to ,dare I say it, take over the world??????"

But of course! And you can see in the above, I am in the process of infiltrating the Government.

*sniffle*

And you left us out of the insidious plot, even if we were merely there as decoys or distractions?
*sniffle*

;-)

[international american]

I don't LIKE being left out of the insidious plot!!
I would have settled for being a fly on the wall
or if need be a potted plant!
Shows you how much our friendship counts with Bob...................sniff.......

[Darksheare]

We can be the furniture and gather valuable information!

It waited for it's prey to come by, it's leather upholstery tempting it's victims to their doom.
Waiting with it's siren song of comfort and relaxation to lure some weak willed to take a seat... Suddenly they are stuck!
The chair won't let them go! Slowly it starts it's feeding process.. the victim feels their legs and arms grow weak as the chair saps their strength.
Then it devours their soul once they are asleep and defenseless....
And everyone thought that barcaloungers were harmless luxuries.

Now who's showing a feminine side? All this sniffling and whimpering!

Darks, there's no way I could use you as an agent to infiltrate the government. Be patient, lad! There'll be a sabotage mission for you eventually.

IA, who better than you to arrange our international alliances? But all in good time, boys. Everything is on a "need to know" basis. Shhhh!

[Darksheare]

Understood.

*ominous voice*
The felines won't know what got them..

[international american]

Okay, now I feel better. I knew something was up with those 2 poems. I will await further instructions.

   SEETHE

Is seethe the word
The condition of my soul
Caught in this earthy flesh
(the youth of my mind
still fragile in the freshness
of love's memory)
I never believed in curses
Until the silver of my days
Like the subtle change
Of seasons
Overtook me in its stealth
Oh, but age
Do what you have to do
But there were nights
and warm afternoons
That still finds life
In this indelible heart
And that, until the last
Of my eternal spark
Is quenched
Though, until then, 
You are never far from me.

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

I'll be a gecko and you guys be flys on the wall, okay?...

[international american]

Ok, pilgrim.
