Curses -- Foiled Again

This time for sure, Jimmy Olson, intent
To find out the secret of one Clark Kent --
   He'd locked the phone booth
   What a super-sleuth! --
Too bad: Top was wide open as a tent

Jimmy Olson should have posted a sexy photo of Lois Lane in the phone booth. Might have gotten his (Super)Man! LOL. Thanks, M.L! Smiles, Gershon

Hahaha! Poor Jimmy will never catch him in the act of changing clothes or changing back. Very cute, Gershon.
