Glue

Oh what shall I do To keep you from leaving me What about this glue? I could mix it in a bag... Hoping to hold onto you Reach inside and stick To me always, bag and hand What a dirty trick To keep you and not let go Yet I'm slapped and called a prick! Johnny Sumler "Bag of Tricks" 7-10-11

What fun Johnny, Being stuck together would surely be a novel way to hang out.

Do you remember the old children's rhyme, I am rubber you are glue, what bounces off me sticks on to you? Don't know why this made me think of THAT silly thing, but this was a fun and interesting one to come across!
