What Does the Fox Say

wrong calculations
bought my love new coats to wear
        found I broke the bank

Wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow!
is my favourite sound.
Dedicated to my host Skat A.

Hello Paul, first thank you so much for your commment on my Franikenstein, I do a write on him every year just love old Frank, one of my all time favorite monsters of all time, by the way I've myself broke my hubby's bank account on a few coats myself but I did point out to him, on how I stayed warm that winter, an think how much he saved on doctor bills because of me staying warm, I didn't get sick as much, a smart wife thinks on her feet lol great work my friend, lol cheri

Clever women usually have excuses ready before even spending the money, thus they always know where they stand ... laughing all the way to the bank:)) Frankenstein will always remain among the elite of Gothic fiction; he will continue to inspire ideas for horror stories. Thank you for your continued support, Cherl. // paul
