WHAT TO WEAR? WHAT TO WEAR? OH MY! WHAT TO WEAR?!

The evening of Halloween,

a neighbor seemed to insinuate that I've should have attended the October picnic;

that I've may have missed something...

interesting?

 

I informed him that was the same weekend

as

GAY PRIDE.

 

To be honest,

I attended none of those events as well. 

 

But...

had I felt like attending anything that weekend,

I'm fairly certain it would have been something associated

with

GAY PRIDE.

 

 

 

 

He volunteered no other information;

and

I didn't ask.

 

Will  be sure not to miss this neighborhood's picnic...

 again!

Dirty Jim

There was one little Jim,

'Tis reported of him,

And must be to his lasting disgrace,

That he never was seen

With hands at all clean,

Nor yet ever clean was his face....

 

His friends were much hurt

To see so much dirt,

And often they made him quiet clean;

But all was in vain,

He got dirty again,

And not at all fit to be seen.

 

It gave him no pain

To hear them complain,

Nor his own dirty clothes to survey:

His indolent mind

No pleasure could find

In tidy and wholesome array.

 

The idle and bad,

Like this little lad,

May love dirty ways, to be sure;

But good boys are seen

To be decent and clean,

Although they are ever so poor.
