Shopping Spree Gone Wrong

Al went to the store to get a face mask He found out, that was a such a hard task All the shelves were bare They didn’t have a spare So he went home and drunk rum from a flask * Not supportive of excessive drinking, just a bit a humor in these difficult times. Stay safe my friends! Alexis Y. 3-22-2020

I love great lims, Alexis and this is a GREAT one! I fear too many people will resort to booze during these stressful times. Here in Colorado the guv has ordered most places to shut down except booze & marijuana stores! You are right, we need a laff now - thanks for your kind comments re a couple of my recent writes. Hunker down and take good care - Bob

Surprised he could even find rum. I bet the liquore stores will make a killing with the bars closed and folks crying in their beer. Good light one for thse times, Alexis.
