Rocko is a bit of an unusual fellow! Enjoyed.

Hilarious! ... Usual you, Gershon. Reckon you thought of the tricky to rhyme words, then placed them into a Limerick? Good stuff! I wrote a vegetarian limerick last week, great minds!

I'm guessing a Jewish mother would not be impressed by her daughter's boyfriend eating raw pig?

I honestly hadn't thought of that angle... Sounds like you're the Rabbi here and I'm your student! lol. Thanks, Michelle. ~ Frightened little pig
