Best ones I have seen yet. THese are extremely difficult to do as "witty sayings" but for your way of lining up sensible sentences, you truly excelled. and that last verse is quite witty indeed!

Wow, this than bauk really flows perfectly Syd! Seems like the chick's attitude is much in tune with today's youth. They want everything served up on a platter. How dare we suggest they work for it? Excellent entry! Best wishes in Dr. Ram's contest. Love, Carolyn
