Pickle Pickers Convention

A Passel of People Participated from all Portions of the nation. The Purpose - To Promulgate the Pickle Pickers and Packers Association! Parsimonious President Dill Presented a Pretty Powerful oration, To Pitch a Passionate Plan for their Prestigiious organization! Picker seminars Provided Pertinent Particulars for Participants, Pertaining to the Proper Pampering for Perpetuating Pickle Plants. Packer Panels Propounded ways to Perfect Professional Panache, For Packing dills and gherkins Perfectly so that they dare not smash! A blue-ribbon Panel Picked the Pickle Princess in all her Persnickety Pomp. A working Party Picked the Pickle Prince and his Pompous aide-de-camp! A Patron Provided a Plastic Plaque for the Pickle Picker of the Year. A Packer won a Prize as top Pickle Purveyor, the Pinnacle of his career! A quorum was needed but a Passel of People were Pickled in the Pub. The President was Perturbed, not easily Placated, there in lay the rub! A Plethora of Pixilated Pickers and Packers Presently repaired, Protesting that they were Prepared to vote, not in the least impaired! It was Paramount that the Proceedings not end on a sour note, So the President Proclaimed a Positive quote for all to Promote: "We must Project Professionalism and Perfection in great number, As we Proudly Proclaim the Palatability of the Prosaic cucumber!"

LOL Funny topic and wittily written using very clever alliteration, Bob. Now don't go and get too "pickled in the pub" if you attend this convention :) Love, Carolyn
