Square Talk

A tribute to Hollywood Squares
   Q and A changed a little somtimes to rhyme

If you decide to pet a dog 
Everyone knows it'll wag it's tail
What's the reaction you get from a goose?
"Of course make him bark, without fail!" .....Paul Lynde

Long ago when your great grandpa 
Put horseradish on his head
what was he really trying to do?
"Put it into his mouth instead!"......George Gobel

The question was very simple
The answer had all enthralled
Can boys join the campfire girls?
"Only after, lights out, is called!"..... Marty Allen

When a couple has a baby
Who is responsible for it's sex?
The answer, "I'll lend him the car"
"It's up to him what happens next"..... Charley Weaver

You've decided to grow strawberries
Are you getting any the first year?
"Of course I'm not getting any"
"I'm busy growing strawberries here!"..... Charley Weaver

If you're going to skydive
At least how high should you be?
"Three days of steady drinking"
"Should just about do it for me!"..... Charley Weaver

True or False, a pea can last
As long as five thousand years
"Sometimes it sure seems that way" .....George Gobel
Had everyone laughing to tears!
