A Poet Walks Into a Bar . . .

I'm Annie in England married to Ron for 13 years this September. I arrived for the stories and stayed for the poetry and banter. I read more or less anything but I do like a good murder. I don't watch an awful amount of Television because I spend far too much time on Facebook, but when I do I like NCIS, Cold Case and the various talent shows (Britains Got Talent etc mainly for the auditions which are often hilarious)
Well, right off the bat, if you like NCIS even a little bit, then you need to start 24.

It's an order of magnitude better.
 
no if I'm serious, I get 'fuck off"
and if I'm not, I write about asbestos being wonderful stuff
either way it's a lose lose
'round here they use the starting gun to shoot the horses

and you know that 'fuck off' was a genuinely impressed one :D so not a lose lose. nope. nuh huh. and i am in the BEST of moods, so there. :rose::rose:

ooh, we dancin'?
 
Trust in Delord, I can't breathe

wassamatta, harry? you've turned a little blue :eek:
put your head between your knees and... :D :devil:

calm down. :kiss:

the biggest obstacle is down, now it's just a matter of tackling all the smaller ones one at a time. :cool:
 
speaking of connections (she says, leaning on the bar conspiratorially), i made a post tuesday night about 'i love clover - i must have been a bee in another life'. Wednesday morning was when the neighbour stopped me to tell me all about the bees that had gone into the buddleia... so many connections. :cool:
 
A Poet Walks Into A Bar

A poet walks into a bar and proceeds to discover life in the form of
cheap liquor,
clove cigars,
blues music,
passing glances,
hazy dreams,
and terrible dancing.

He then writes about love and loss,
waking in the morning only to wonder
why there are ink stains and sketches
in his journal.
 
Nice. I just paid $30 in taxes for a product worth $12. :rolleyes: I'd rather make a small pile of money and burn it.

taxes suck but are a necessary evil - import tax duties, however, are a screaming scam.

I disagree about the "necessary" part — taxes enable things to be done. They are as necessary as what they are put toward. In my case, that would be nothing. :)

Maybe I just need some food. Are you going to eat that sandwich?
checking prohibited items :( I'll just dump my bag and start again. are fingernail clippers considered sharp objects or tools?
:confused:

I don't usually write poetry here
or anywhere for that matter, but
a beer or two and a friendly smile can make me try my luck
dashing off a few lines to one as fine as you
in between suggestive patter and tossing back the brews. :cattail:
*takes a bite, sips* :rose:
 
Could look at that for hours
i want to touch them

aren't they amazing? the horses (there are some at this year's chelsea flower show) are - well, alive! and to think how incredible that is, to make something from something dead come alive...

the first time i've seen any of these.
