Cannot Tell A Lie

Men's minds are devious at the best of times Always twisting their stories I should know, I'm one of dem der guys Pretty sure I'm no different than 98% of my fellow males It's inbred into our psyche and of this I'm sure We're really damn proud of it However I'm a straight shooter At the expense of my fellow males I apologize Hate blowing the whistle on you guys But I can't help it... as George Washington once said “I cannot tell a lie” Everything and I mean EVERYTHING That comes out of my mouth Is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth So help me... Z-Z-Z-A-A-A-A-A-P-!

ZZZZAAAAP! loved that powerful and creative ending. I taught high school students for most of my life and learned early on to be a straight shooter with them. They have inborn 'crap detectors.' Don't ever lie to a high school student. They're most unforgiving! :-) Plus lying is not good for my soul. enjoy your day, Jack, Sara
