Premium Member The Gay Nineties
Don't know if “delicious” can describe today Another I can think of is perhaps “yee-haw, olay!” Ye ole sun's shining brightly I tip my hat politely Sounds like I'm from a time when gentlemen were all gay

Limerick: Once a lean Lecher in his nineties

Once a lean Lecher in his nineties
Wondered if he could relive his twenties:
He went on a diet
Of French fries and cutlet:
The Wench said it felt like rigor mortis !

Premium Member On Betty White's 99th Birthday
Beautiful, still beautiful after all these years
Especially on your 99th birthday, 
Today, sweet Betty, is yours
To celebrate and be grateful for
Your longevity!

While most of us will never see the nineties
How special that you have, bringing 
Inspiration, laughs, and pleasure
To so many who have followed your career.
Everyone, give a round of applause for Ms White!...

Premium Member Humor Air Condtioner Broke


Do they have souls of their own?
That break and let us perspire and moan?

I just want to leave this steaming town.
Those AC’s, such insensitive clowns.

They wait happily till it gets to be in the nineties.
They happily break and you sleep in sweaty nighties!

These devilish demons cost us plenty money.
But in hot climates, are as sweet as the best honey!

Faithful In His Fashion (1867-1900)
Ernest Dowson was a singer of the saddest, tritest tune,
Of the fawning, futile love that poets blame upon the moon,
And his lyrics all were painted on the margin of the page,
So his water-colored lines were barely noticed by his Age.

Wine-and-roses, and Cynara, floating lonesome in the air
Of the foggy yellow Nineties, in a Soho restaurant where
An Italian fickle waitress cracked a poet’s dream, yet made
His exquisite, fragile verses, faintly flower, not to fade....
