Spice Advice

As you get older, you'll hear plenty of quips
On freedom and wisdom, but here's my tip:
Guard your schnoz around pepper, and squeeze those knees
If you don't want to pee your pants when you sneeze!

Michelle, I love it when you write spicy, you really know how to curry my favor! Thank you for the sage (oops, I mean pepper) advice. Hopefully I'll remember it next thyme I sneeze (I tend to sneeze whenever I feel chili). Thanks for the smiles.

I enjoyed making my mother-in-law laugh as no matter how hard she squeezed, she still could not laugh without peeing her pants! Thanks for the laugh!
