A Crisis Averted
The President is facing a dilemma:
should he try to remove a pickle from his left ear?
He phoned the caveman for advice,
the phone is answered by his hairy wife,
upon hearing of the Presidents pickle situation
she replied tartly,
“You should eat only broccoli and kale,
and avoid the fatty parts of the whale.”
The president is clearly shaken.
He bestows upon the hairy, caveman’s wife
an ambassadorship to the North Pole.
The caveman’s wife merely grunts, then:
“And take that pickle out of your stupid ear!”
“Neanderthals,” he mutters reaching for the ketchup;
“can’t live with them; can’t live without them.
