Something In Common

Tim Allen could be seen in a trailer
But best known for Tim "The Toolman" Taylor

Seen in "Space Balls" and "While you were sleeping",
Bill Pullman's movies are meant for keeping

Cyndi Lauper's  sings, "Girls just want to have fun"
If you need a great singer, she is the one!

Kim Basinger modeled before the acting she seeks
Known for movies like "Batman" and "Nine and a half weeks"

A former preacher, his comedy came in yells
Gone too soon,Sam Kinison caused laughing spells

In common these people, including me
Were born in the year 1953

Banned From Sears

I am a man who loves Sears and tools a lot.
But if you're wondering if I'm happy, I am not.
Something happened that drove me to tears.
I have been permanently banned from Sears.
I visited Sears one day and I tested a propane heater in the store.
There was a big explosion that propelled me to the above floor.
I haven't been banned from just that Sears, I've been banned from them all.
They won't let me return even though I wept like a girl and decided to crawl.
What happened makes me so upset that I cuss like a sailor.
They banned me even though I'm Tim the Toolman Taylor.
