One Minute Writer had a topic called "The Do-Over Button".
"If you had a "do over" button, what one event in your life
would you like to have a second chance at doing better?"
It reminded me of that old joke about an Amish man and an elevator.
The "Do Over" Button
An inventor by the name Hutton
Created a 'do-over' button;
He had the time of his life
When he did over his wife
And now enjoys lamb and not mutton.

If your wife reads this you are dead meat!
ReplyDeletegreat joke. although i dont think i will be sharing it with the women in my life just yet.
ReplyDeleteLee: I'm more likely to get into trouble for this, if she were to read your blog post about dongsnog:
ReplyDeleteDongsnog is a word that is missing,
What with images of hot penile kissing,
Our lexicons need it.
But I ready concede it
Really is just fond reminiscing.
Justsomethoughts: Better to be a live chicken than a dead duck?
Around here we use Texans instead of Amish for the cited joke - more people are familiar with the oddness that is Texas than with the Amish country.
ReplyDeleteI figure I'd get in trouble for telling my better half either of the jokes.
Okay, J, Cosmo, my new goal in life is to write a great limerick. I know my meager attempt will not match yours, but it is a worthy goal.
ReplyDeleteGo for it. It is an addiction. My two favourites are:
ReplyDeleteWhile Titian was mixing rose madder,
His model reclined on a ladder
The position to Titian
Suggested coition
So he leapt up the ladder and had her.
There was a young plumber named Lee
Who was plumbing a young maid by the sea
Said the maid "cease your plumbing
I think someone's coming"
Said the plumber, still plumbing, "It's me!"
They are my benchmarks.

ReplyDeleteFoam: Beautiful! Love it!

ReplyDeletethis is my first ever :)
all this writing has caused too much thinking
and i guess i'm 'gain due for some drinking
which doesnt surpise
as i seem to surmise
'tis the juice in which i'm slowly sinking
ok
it's only a first
but i can see how this can become something of an obsession.
Sheep loving Hutton confessed
ReplyDeleteHis button often failed to impress.
Said Hutton, about his button,
This size is just nothin’;
In winter, it’s completely recessed.
young mutton smirked at hutton
ReplyDeletewho was contemplating wee button
wondering if he'd need to pay a fee
for favors that were once free ...
young mutton leaped with joy
cause she had found her own new toy
in the form of a young buck ..
who proofed to be a studly good f...

ReplyDeleteNo, but really glad it was!
ReplyDeleteIt did seem to push a few buttons, didn't it!
