Wee Witty Ditty

I once met an psychic Gypsy Who warned me not to get tipsy I always got drunk But who would have thunk I'd end up in Mrs. Shipsea* *Mississippi?

If you end up in Mississippi, we'll grin at you and say, "How you doin' today?" LOL! Exceptional limerick, Rico. "Mississippi"--spoken by a really drunk person--probably would sound just like that--so clever! Janice

Mahalo! 'Auku'u (aka Black-crowned Night Heron) is an endemic but Threatened Species in Hawai'i. I do not know how they can swallow a needlefish head first and avoid injury, but this one managed to stab the heron's neck before the plunge.
