Premium Member Don't Take Any Wooden Nickels
If I had a nickel for the times Some politicians committed crimes How my money would soar Maybe twice as before I could turn those nickels into dimes Then I could buy a Senator's seat Kick back, relax, and put up my feet I'd promise everyone But then get nothing done And take a ride along easy street So as a...

The sweetness of life, like sweet Kool Aid fills our tummies, while dishes await scrapes of scraps for the family pet; Tuffy. A simpler time, when gas was priceless at $.75 a gallon- and...
