Tid Bits On Parade

"Sixteen tons, what do you get?
a Grossly obese diva,
at the Met...."

I signed up for physics in college,
a whole semester, and they never
even mentioned Ex-Lax

I finally found out what S.U.V. stands for;
"Stupid, Ugly Vehicle"

I tried to get in touch with the
Freemasons- but couldn't  find
a one willing to lay stone without
compensation

In poor ethnic areas, there are always
dozens of churches- "The House Of God"
they say.  Boy, God sure moves around alot.

I better get more sleep- I rehearsed
for 5 hours today with the wrong band.

With my luck, if I fell overboard on a boat,
the life saver they'd toss me would be 
peppermint

Hasten, Jason, with the basin,
oops, plip, plop, get a mop!!
(author Percy Heath Jr. )


My friend, and fellow poet, Jack Reed,
mentioned that he likes to burn dvd's.
I've tried to, but the toxic plastic smoke
made me ill.

If there's an internet, does that mean there's
an outernet?
