Dying To Meet Women

There once was a man on the beach
Hoping for women to meet
      To try to look thin
      He held his breath in
And passed out dead at their feet.

Had to laugh at the image of this happening, Joe. I think a lot of folks hold in their breath at the beach. Congratulations on placing third in the contest! Love, Carolyn
