Sammy the Spy

He seemed quite shy
did Sammy the Spy
Yet his reticence masked
a mind calculating, sly

When but a wee lad
Sammy uncovered the facts of life --
Picking his folks' bedroom lock 
He gawked, then gasped, 'Oh, my!'

I cannot think of anything to add, because you have covered ALMOST everything. Pun intended, Gershon.

Don't forget the mustard (to go along with the 'catch up'). I bring the burgers and the hotdogs, and we'll have ourselves a BBQ. Aloha, friend.

Jan, this form has your name and style plastered all over it. It just screams, "Jan Allison" to me. Why not give it a McWhirtle?! LOL...Thank you so much for the positive feedback. Giggles forever, Gershon
