Twenty-Twenty Vision

Mick’s ex-wife in the nude needed some cheer,
she felt fat and ugly and horribly *****;
to Mick she did lament,
“pay me a compliment …”
“Well your eyesight is near perfect my Dear.”

I love great lims and this is a great one, Lindsay! Thanks for your gracious comments re the old soldier who wanted to visit the WW2 Memorial in DC. And thanks to your valiant Australian vets who fought alongside the Yanks in so many battles. Good on you, Mate! - Bob

Hello Kim … I can't work that out either, but I'm not complaining. Obviously the dictionary description has changed. You're right, he won't last long with comments like this - thank you Kim - Lindsay
