Why

If you don’t bother to take the time,
To express your thoughts in rhyme,
The chances are awfully good,
You’ve not thought as much as you should.
Rhymes are fun and set the stage right,
Like lovers undressing before a fight…

This ain’t Asteroids…

Say what you will about video games

But it’s hard to deny the young people’s claims

That they’re active and cool and have a role

In preparing for life and meeting your goal.

You can still think a video game sucks,

But the kid doesn’t care who made 3 million bucks!

What happens in Vegas…

The craziest of things can happen there

So you always have to be aware

Of what temptations may come your way

And what sort of price you’re willing to pay.

But I can’t say grasshoppers come to mind

As a Vegas attraction of any kind.

The hole story

Who’d have thought it had such power

To fuel the dream, to deliver our hour

Of creativity and entrepreneurial soul

From sweet dough and a strategic hole…

The donut has meant so much to so many

And has made for some a pretty penny.

Quite the blow at sea

This was no amateur operation!

20 tons of cocaine into the nation.

$1.3 billion dollars of value on the street

That could have bought an entire fleet

Of even larger ships to smuggle in a ton.

But our Customs Patrol got the job done.

Too good to be true

Here’s the man who in the campaign said

There’d be no time for golf, and instead

He’d work all the time, always for you!

But along the way may have colluded too,

With Russians and other unsavory types

So here he is, publicly showing his stripes!


As we all should!

It is outrageous to see the change,

And the GOP’s fiscal policy range,

From deficits being their pet peeve

To now drunken sailors on shore leave.

This budget is a crime against the nation!

Please someone work for its cessation.

All talk…

The ICE raids seem to have been a bust,

With few deportations, far fewer than just.

The courts have ruled these folks must go

And so they should, while we show

Compassion to those who are sent away.

But Trump is letting many stay…

What would Bugs think?

On the one hand I like Arby’s spirit.

Meat replacements? They don’t fear it.

In fact they think it would be a trip

To take the idea and give it a flip.

But it does cause a bit of a shock –

A new meaning to “What’s up, Doc?”

The Eagle totally landed

The thing which I really need to know

Is who first had the idea to go

On a trip through space to the Moon or

Had the ambitions for anything lunar?!

How was the notion even conceived?

And what did it take to be believed?!

The Out of Office reply

The OOO always strikes me as lame.

Turns out what I’ve seen is pretty tame

Compared to those that some have writ

Which make them sound like a pompous…

“I’m OOO writing a book in Gstaad!”

And you’ve also now joined the Ego Squad.
