Mistress of Mirth

Her real name's Jan, the Mistress of Mirth
She tickles our fancies with every verse
Where are our “fancies”
Are they inside our panties
With two minds like ours it could have been worse

If you and Jan lived in Aus, you would be called a pair of dags, which means in local lingo as being comical, witty, and entertaining, so don't go googling dags Jack or you might be offended by the real meaning, but believe me, you both make a day much brighter. Thank you Jack - Lindsay

I prefer to call it a compliment of sorts and definitely will not look it up! Okay I looked it up and this was the definition I found... "Dag is an Australian and New Zealand slang term. In Australia, it is often used as an affectionate insult for someone who is, or is perceived to be, unfashionable, lacking self-consciousness about their appearance and/or with poor social skills yet affable and amusing." LOL Cheers, Jack
