Al Gore is a strange Meritage
Funny body and an eerie visage
Now the acting bug's bit 'em
(Don't you just want to hit 'em?)
He'd be great as the star of "La Cage..."

Oysters have long been thought to be an aphrodisiac. I beg to differ. I had a dozen last night, and only nine of them worked.

Didn't McCain broadcast that Ronald Reagan was too old to be POTUS? McCain is now older than when President Reagan ran.
Ronald Reagan was given a clean state of health. I don't think McCain can do that.

Thank you all very much!
My first Birthday Present to myself was in sleeping late.
Oysters? Hmmm.

I am just soaking up your adulation.
I knew you would appreciate me someday.

I'm so glad we tried to get him out of office five years ago. It didn't work for many reasons, but, just dang, we tried in the over 100-degree heat.

I used to shuck those oysters when I worked at the Crab Cooker in Newport Beach, CA. Every now and again, you'd get a pearl.

"Every now and again, you'd get a pearl."
Every now and again, I get one.
Pearls
Children are a lot like pearls. It takes some grit to start,
And then you nurse them like a grudge, and keep them near your heart.
You want to give them shelter, to protect them from the world,
But they keep growing bit-by-bit. You end up "Mother of Pearl"ed.
Your face takes on a lustre, your heart a softened edge,
And you don't want to surrender them, it takes the sharpest wedge,
To pry them from your fingertips, to tear them from your grip.
Only giving them up to love can make you let them slip.
Children must learn their way in life. They are, of course, your seeds,
They cannot grow to strength themselves, unless chance meets their needs.
They find it while away from you, and as they search and explore,
But only you will know the little bit of hurt that is at their core.

As the visage of her face reflects
culture, grace, and patience
the shadowed eyes recall a time
when there was no grace at all.
Living through the ragged times
her character builds like pearls
to glow behind the lace she wears
a countenance to behold.
