Fish Tales

’Twas Jonah the Lord God did teach, When orders he opted to breach. God’s porpoise not thwarted, Escape was aborted, With Jonah spit up on the beach. If the fish had refused God right then, Having tasted the flavor of men, An immoral cetacean That fell from creation, Or a case of Original Fin?

Ha! I have a Mac, and that profile picture upload is broken, broken, broken. Yup, it's best if you can't be identified by a mug shot, lol!
