Montezuma's Revenge

Must stay close to the WC

Senior Montezuma is laughing hysterically

Thoroughly enjoying his revenge at my expense

Didn't drink the water but it made no difference

Been back home for almost a week now

No relief in sight

Getting skinnier by the minute

Looking kind of emaciated and if you believe that

Go some gorgeous swampland in Florida for ya

I'm sure you'll be interested in

Could starve myself for a couple of weeks

And the word, “emaciated” still wouldn't apply

I imagine Senior Montezuma is getting a big kick out of this

Kind of a sick sense of humour I would say!

This is good Jack. I heard of that a long time ago. When I went to Mexico - I never drank the water. I enjoyed the humor.... Lucilla

Big changes in food and water are always hard on us... In high school I got to go to Mexico... I didn't drink the water but was caught by Montezuma's revenge, too. Definately wasn't a pretty sight... or smell... LOL... Never taking Dragon there! Can you imagine... if he can bury my roses every day... it wouldn't be a pretty sight... and down right disastrous for all around him! Grandpa Troll agrees. Hoping you're better soon! And I imagine everyone around you is glad you're not a Dragon!...LOL
