Peter Possum -- Mp

Peter Possum had a nasty rep
He was so white, he couldn't be hep
  He got him some brown paint
  Said, "I am what I ain't!"
If he'd only unlearn that goose step





Note: MP in the title stands for Military Police

Hello Gershon … at the minute, there is certainly a widening gap and that is not good - thank you Gershon - Lindsay

Yup. When the gap gets too wide, the artificial divide comes tumbling down. Result: Revolution and/or martial law. Let's hope it doesn't come to that. :) gw

Maybe Peter Possum is only play-acting (let's hope)

Keeping legs rigidly straight at least stops knees from bending...a knee can cause pain and distress!! ~ Regards / paul

Interesting observation, Paul! --- though I'd rather see the goose-steppers experience the pain! Thanks, Gershon
