Prove Me Wrong

The Seahawks win!

The Mariners too!

In Washington they shout “woohoo!”

The Jaguars lost.

The Blue Jays fell.

They have no fans, so all is well.

When The Island Is Closed

This year for halloween

I want to be a political elite

By staying out of the public eye

And putting a roundabout on your street.

Oktoberfest

We’ve entered the month

Where people dress up

And act like they’re German

And fill a big cup

With beer, eat a pretzel,

And fry up a brat.

Tonight you like polka:

Tomorrow, you’ll not.

Equity

Instead of arguing white vs. black,

Men vs. women, straights vs. gays,

Let’s just accept that we’re all kinda dumb

And move on with our kinda dumb days.

Congressional Privilege

So we can’t pay employees

Who keep on working hard

Despite a shut-down government

With a maxed-out credit card

And yet we pay the people

Who got us in this mess

With money that we do not have?

‘Murica, I guess…

You’ve Got Fail

Microsoft had a Magic 8-Ball

And shook it every day

To get ideas for products

Based on what it had to say.

For Word, the ball said “Signs point to yes.”

For Powerpoint, it said “You should.”

But the message they most took to heart

Was “Outlook not so good.”

We Could Have Had Super Soldiers By Now, And Yet…

Still no one has tried

Giving coffee to the sloths.

Science, what the #%**?

I’d Go Myself, But I Have Pilates At 10:30

Ride on! Ride on brave warriors!

To doom and glory ye harken.

Your hope burns bright though every night

And day the skies doth darken.

Ride on! Ride on our guardians

To wherever you might go

For someone hath misused my pronouns

And their error to them you must show.

Fine Whine

There once was a popular singer

Whose love life was put through the ringer.

Her dreams all came true

Yet she still sings to you

About how life still gives her the finger.

Oh Yeah… We’ll Also Make Every Micro-Sheet Get Dispensed Using Electricity Made From Burning Coal

So paper towels are made from trees

And killing tree will kill the Earth

So to save more trees and thus the planet

We must have a towel dispenser rebirth:

Henceforth no towel dispenser shall

Give more than a three-inch sheet.

Of course you can use it unlimited times.

Isn’t saving the planet neat?
