ROFLOL! See how easy this is? I wonder if this is how Joseph Smith started. "Hey guys, get a load of this!"

An Ode to Cheesedom
James Davies
Cheese, Cheese,
You never fail to please,
from camembert to Brie,
A warm place in my heart there'll be.
Cheese, Cheese,
strong flavour never a tease,
from Roquefort to fetah,
a taste you'll never better.

In the Old Country, we had nothing to eat but the yams. It was a sad country.
Yams are good food.
Eight yams...are too much food.
That would be two of the many sayings on yams we had in the Old Country.
Here are more yam wisdoms than you could stand, I bet
Yams...are...so...YAM-A-LICIOUS!!
The National Yam Marketing Board never could come up with a good slogan.
"Never underestimate the power of yams," my Granma would say.
She was a loon.
"Have you driven a yam lately?" Granpa would say.
We had to kill him eventually.
"Plant your dead grannies and grampies in the fields this year, you will have good yam crop no fear."
That is our national motto.
Messed up country, I always said.
"Stick a yam up your butt, you'll be sorry, you bet!"
That was another thing we said in the old country. Man, were they right!
A yam did save my life once, though.
Indirectly.
A guy choked to death on a yam, and, hey, he could have dropped a safe on my head!
One less yam related fatality, in my mind.
"I never met a yam I didn't like," I always said, till I met this one yam.
Once in Yamsylvania, we had the potato famine. Which did not upset us because, hey, we eat only yams! Then we realized it is better to starve on potatoes than eat yams. We became so poor we had to raise monkeys for their fur. OK, we raised them for their pleasant smell and many tasty parasites. The kids today, tell them about parasite stew, and they look at you like you're some kind of nutty man, crazed from yam poisoning.
We fed the monkeys bananas, or as we called them in those days which are days gone so we call those "Gone Days," but we called them not bananas but "yellow slipperies." Which was too long so then we called them "bricks," which sadly led to confusion and several collapsed buildings.
Mind you, the only 2 things you could do with monkey fur in those days was either trade it for a better type of monkey fur, or yams. Boy, did we eat a lot of yams. Yam soup, yam stew, yam pudding pops, tossed yam salad with Thousand Yam dressing, yam Spam, and for breakfast either Frosted Yam Flakes or Cap'n Crunch with Yamberries. With yam milk. Ever try to milk a yam? It's a lotta work. Course, milking a monkey's worse. They'll claw your face off.
Maybe you're on to something there...:o)
Advertisements we'll never see....
I know, I know....way too much time on my hands...this is a joke!!
