I’m up to my nipples in sand,
The tide’s coming in again and
This time, I’m afraid
You win, Tess Kincaid
I’ll give you the five hundred grand!
Take the risk and visit Tess at Magpie Tales but run if she's toting a shovel!
excellent- laughing my ass off once again...thanks Stafford!
ReplyDeleteExcellent fun. Enjoyed it.
ReplyDeletehaha, this is really funny. loved it :)
ReplyDeleteIs it coming in or going out? I guess you're the sailor.
ReplyDeleteThe picture looks like one of those leadership/initiative tests given to potential officers in the forces. I think your solution is great, Stafford. I hope Tess is listening.
ReplyDeleteHahaha - and I like your interpretation! Tell you what for only 400 grand I'll get my shovel!
ReplyDeletehaha... this is great!
ReplyDeleteDear Stafford,
ReplyDeleteWhere do you come up with these gems?
hahahaha - I saw someone murdered in a movie just like that (I really thought they'd get out, but noway).
ReplyDeleteYou mean, you paid it, too!
ReplyDeletewhat with the tatts and the kidnapping, I reckon she is a pirate.
ReplyDeleteI noticed you're in Sydney now - wave hello to the Harbour for me, please? It's such a long time since I've been home ...
Hehe! Pirates were on my mind, too!
ReplyDeleteDear Stafford: This was very fourth wall-ish; very out of the box, and off the wall; so very creative and in my face! A smack dab bit o' reality bite! Loved it! Chiccoreal
ReplyDeleteGreat limericks Stafford! Yeah, best to pay up! Our life's worth isn't determinable!
ReplyDeleteHank
It's deal, my friend...
ReplyDeleteterrific write, the word nipples always makes me laugh, good one
ReplyDeleteChristine, people have been known to die laughing, so a bit of advice:
ReplyDeleteIf ‘nipples’ brings on a Ho-Ho-er,
And buttons on bellies another,
If you’re still about
When he is dug out,
You’d better not look any lower!
It is me that owes you once again my friend! You never stop amazing me with your wonderful humor Stafford!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't know which is funnier - the original poem or your comment to Christine :)
ReplyDeleteHehe!
ReplyDeleteAnna :o]
