Reckless Ron's Explosive Barbecue

Reckless Ron from sunny Bennelong Turned barbecue sausage without a tong, He'd use his teeth to open beer, He'd call out loud, " I've got no fear," But alas, one day he left the gas on. Authors note: Bennelong is the point in Sydney Harbour, NSW, Australia, where the famous Sydney Opera House is located.

So Reckless Ron is gone? All charred and scarred? Oh poor Ron, if only he'd known, He'd probably have bought insurance for John! :) Loved the lim and the laughter today. Good day, JOhn! :)

Hi Kim,........Reckless Ron's gone skyward bound,.......Shouldn't be long afor he comes down,.......You'll recognise him by his skinny jeans,......... Coming down somewhere near the Phillipines.--------Like Ron will be, thanks for dropping in Kim.
