bank vault-- timed to close—door shuts--
darkness—tragic cry

Newsflash
How come they're not trying to ban poison
or knives or sunshine, alcohol, baseball bats, aerosols, chemtrails.
Because those things aren't the two 
that protect the people the most.
Free speech and guns....

Premium Member Newsflash - Rudolph Demoted
Claus chose Vixen to lead his sleigh this year.

   Rudolph was assigned to bring up the rear.

      Vixen was promoted;

         Rudy was demoted,

            Since he was sozzled and too drunk to steer!

Oxymoron Newsflash:
"EARLY TONIGHT, according to HEAR SAY, things got PRETTY UGLY when a SINGLE GROUP of HELLS
ANGELS became SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE to control during an ALL OUT MINOR CATASTROPHE at the
MICROSOFT WORKS sponsored MEXI-CALI JUMBO SHRIMP Festival“.


(in a strange way, this type of wishy-washy lingo reminds me of our lovely National news)...

Miss You
Eyes closed for the addict who is still suffering
Your face appears clear, a mirror
Suffered together from a disease with no known cure 
Newsflash it can be arrested
I pray that it is before she dies 
Let her know that she is not forgotten 
That I’m still here saving a chair 
Wishing her well
Maybe if she sees me walking
She will walk too...

From Birth To..
Born to no newsflash
A quiet birth
Amongst so many
Quietly forgotten amongst siblings
Michael Joseph Jackson

50 years later
No newspaper 
Is without his name
Displaying his mourned death
How so many have cried

The sadness
Is because of such a unique talent
The man he should of grew up to be
Was buried 
Before he even became a teenager


He had already died......

Newsflash: There will be not any Christmas this year.
Santa's elves are on strike for better pay and no Obamacare.
The FAA has grounded Rudoph. So Santa has to use Twikle toes for more light.
Santa's doctor told Santa to lay off the cookies because he won't get off the ground.
The other reindeer wants more feed because they don't like carrots.
So no Christmas this Year Boys and Girls....

Premium Member Halloween Newsflash --- Say-Hey
Hearken, hear ye, what we say
   O'er runways and roadways
      Swirling snowflakes
         are falling today
   Sidewalks, slushy and slick  
      need new navigation
         in a festive way

   So, Say-Hey and Yay
      All you trick-or-treaters
   It's time to break out
      Your Halloween sleighs!


  
 A Happy, snowy, Halloween
    to Midwesterners (USA) 
            :)   :)   :)...
