A Tribute to TJs or WAs:- Ove

Verbal pilots with nowhere to land
Are too restless to lie, sit or stand.
Lofty-LIPPED, so to speak.
As we know, tongue-in-cheek
Go with foot in the mouth, hand in hand.

Accustomed to tasting his Reeboks,
With foot in mouth, up past his KNEE socks,
He's known for his fibbing,
And nonstop adlibbing.
Let's hope that we'll see him in DE-talks.

12.20.08 Ove writes (inspired by the governor of Illinois):

Though we simplify good versus bad,
No conscience means utterly mad.
To some, copacetic
Is sociopathetic.
There isn't much more I could add.

A little snow last night brought Monet to mind:

12.15.08 The Toopine counter. The server is smoking.

An Ove Michealsen lyric about Whiting:

Nothing's as exciting
As a Tuesday night in Whiting.
Nothing on my list as far as pla-ans go.
With Karaoke Sundays,
And bingo night on Mondays.
The rest of the week we sit and watch the gra-ass grow / sky-y snow.

12.14.08 Old Wa below shows how my head feels today.

O :

In an age of increasing fragility,
And technology's awesome ability,
One day the great sun
Will be corporate run
If not owned by a major utility.

12.4.08 Limmerick from O:

CRIMINALS

Of many, we capture too FEW of them.
Once in custody, what should we DO with them?
Repeat their offenses,
Neglecting our senses
And righteously slay the whole SLEW of them?

Small funnel (left) nearly nails us.
