LOL! I think I would be in trouble if I put it all in the dumpster! Besides, we're asking people for money, it's job security!

Bang On The Drum - Todd Rundgren
I Don't Want To Work
I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day
I Don't Want To Play
I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day
Ever since I was a tiny boy
I don't want no candy
I don't need no toy
I took a stick and an old coffee can
I bang on that thing 'til I got
Blisters on my hand because
CHORUS
I Don't Want To Work
I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day
I Don't Want To Play
I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day
When I get older they think I'm a fool
The teacher told me I should stay after school
She caught me pounding on the desk with my hands
But my licks was so hot
I made the teacher wanna dance
And that's why
CHORUS
I Don't Want To Work
I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day
I Don't Want To Play
I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day
BREAK
CHORUS
I Don't Want To Work
I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day
I Don't Want To Play
I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day
Listen to this
Every day when I get home from work
I feel so frustrated
The boss is a jerk
And I get my sticks and go out to the shed
And I pound on that drum like it was the boss's head
Because
CHORUS 4X
I Don't Want To Work
I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day
I Don't Want To Play
I Just Want To Bang On The Drum All Day

LOL! 7,000+! No, I have not. One weekend I went to a thread asking if he was crazy, and said he couldn't get any mail, it was hilarious, silly but very funny.

Good morning, Darks.
Slow day here, too; in fact, it has been a slow week!!
If it gets any slower, I may just post a new thread twice a week instead of three times.

Yes, it is good that you are going to be a nice boy and keep your tomtom jokes to yourself.

haha ! Great pic ! You have a great Friday too ! Seeing that pic reminds me of an old commericial. Don't remember what the product was.
The scene I recall was a little kid on one side of a post fence poking his head over one of the cross posts, looking at a sheep on the other side. This little kid hollers out, "Hi, doggie !!" hahaha !

That cat looks like Smudge.
Smudge is the next door neighbor's old man kitty.
But he's such a purrbot.
Give him scritches and he's in kitty heaven.

I hadn't been to that thread for about a week; I was surprised at the number of posts. :)
I think that graphic by MamaBear is lovely. I haven't used it because it says Poetry and Potpourri instead of Amy's Place. I was glad that I could use it with your poem; it sure changed the image of the zot thread, didn't it?

Thank you for this lovely graphic. I've had it forever but it seemed to be a good one to post with CG's zot poem.
I hope you are having a wonderful Friday.

You may have forgotten the second most important anniversary but at least you remembered the most important!!
Do you know what we should be celebrating today? Other than your FR anniversary? I may have to do some research.

It really changed the whole poem. If we removed the Zot references no one would know.
