Shattered Dreams - George Clooney

I heard it on the news today All my dreams have been blown away I’m sitting here now in my bra and knickers With a bottle of gin and family pack of Snickers Oh no it’s such a sad depressing day George Clooney’s getting wed today Oh those eyes so dark brown and sultry And with his hair turning grey mmmmmmmmmmmmm Guess lots of ladies are in mourning They missed their chance now reality is dawning… All across the land ladies are wishing It was with him that they were kissing Now if only I was ten years younger - twenty is nearer the mark If I plaster myself in make up and went somewhere that’s dark If only I was tall and slim I could have had a chance with him So guys if its chocolate your lady is craving Buy her the biggest box it will stop her raving Make sure you give her lots of attention And George Clooney’s name you must NEVER mention Jan Allison 27th September 2014

So glad I checked in and saw your latest write, Jan. I love this kind of humor. He is one of my fave guys in Hollywood too. Also I love Tom CRuise's looks, don't know about his personality. ahhaha.(his religion has to scare off a lot of the ladies)

Gosh you and Tim both looking like Mr Clooney - and I'm hoping my cyber hubby Darren is cultivating his grey hair for when he gets back - surprised hes got any left having been married to me and having two babies in quick succession - he ho a girl can dream:-) hugs Jan xxx

I know the feeling Jan. If only I was skinny, stopped eating M&Ms and didn't have to make love in the dark. I would be out there looking for the my female version of George Clooney! :)
