Sam Jameson March 10, 2016 at 8:34 PM Very clever sets, Tim-- I like the spin with the double plays. I concur with Timothy that Dam it/Damn it is great! Congratulations!

Timothy Hicks March 10, 2016 at 8:00 PM Congratulations on your high place win Mr. Tim! These were super clever in my opinion. I wrote a footle once like this where the rhyme was the same (but the meaning different) ... but yours were especially funny. The slave-driving beaver is the star in this set.
