Let the Good Times Roll

Heard this before? “Life is what you make it” So very true, we are all captains of our own vessel We are the ones that map out our course The winds of life are not always in our favour But the happiness we receive is much more gratifying Than always having things handed to us on a silver platter We appreciate even the smallest gestures of love and kindness Aside from the lunatic fringe, we are all cut from the same cloth The one percent lunatic fringe cause all the problems For the ninety-nine percent of normal folks like us All we want is to get from point A to point B With the least amount of hassle So my advice is, just let the good times roll One day at a time and all that stuff © Jack Ellison 2014=center>

Yeah... You caught us... We're part of the lunatic fringe... Or at least Dragon is. I swear... He causes 95% of all the trouble in acorn falls... And that poor Park sheriff... No doubt, he'll get his bottom singed a few more times before Dragon's done... Can you believe it? He tried to ban our poor sweet little Dragon from the park after that Shakespeare fiasco... Can't imagine why... after all Dragon DID save his butt... Literally... LOL

Normal? You are normal? I thought I was the only normal one. Are you sure we are not in the 1 percent??? We're just a little crazy but a whole lotta fun. Keep those good time rolling Jack. All that stuff between A and B is pretty amazing. Drop by and visit when you have a chance. Adios Amigo.
