Mister Know-it-All

A holiday comes a holiday goes Will it come again God only knows Aw, cut the crap I ain't fallin' in this trap Of course it's comin' next year Go soak your brain in stale beer Not-so-fast, Mr. Know-it-All Your ego's cruisin' for a fall Next year, 2024, there'll be a world war Bombs, missiles, lots of gore You mean, the world might end before my favorite holiday Well, at least now I've reason to ditch the dogma and pray

Quite a nicely phrased compliment there, Bob. Do you happen to 'dabble in poetry?' lol. Thank you so much, and Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. :) Gershon

such a clever and witty rhyme poem, Gershon. Geez, hope and pray there's not a huge war in 24. Aptly said, sir. Have a splendid day, Sara

Everything seems to be coming together for Mr. Putin's game plan. He's just distracted the world from Ukraine, via his sponsoring of Iran, which (in turn) sponsors its proxies, Hamas (and Hezbollah and ISIS). Ugh. It's getting UGHLY!

Dear God, why do humans not learn.? Well that may just be it..? Why did that young man go and Live with grizzly bears.? Why do some people Venture into extreme weather conditions? Or climb the sides of volcanos.? Why.?
