A Limerick to an Ode of Death, Sarongs, and a Dog.


Tis a true and peculiar tale;
Of a man, a dog and his tail.
They walked across the wilderness,
Lacking all things but their finesse,
In search for Australian ale.

The Story begins down-under.
Sunlight shown, through clouds, asunder.
The man and the dog wore nothing.
Winter, their bodies were numbing.
Hurray, the sun is a wonder!

They walked all the day until night,
Meeting and greeting in the light.
At night the two slept together.
That's how they could stand the weather,
Keeping each one warm with delight.

But then the Fateful day went bad.
Loss of his life the poor man had.
Many across the land shed tears,
Celebrating his many years.
Good-bye to the Naked Nomad.

But this tale is about a dog,
Who's in an emotional fog.
No more does he watch the sarong
On his owner, which looks so wrong,
As it tried to hide his...umm... 'log'.

Farewell to the man and the dog.
We are left with a painful clog.
To the next life the man does go,
As he is buried way down low.
The dog says "LIVE! I must not slog".

Tis a cruel tale of men and dogs,
Death is but separating logs.
But now one rests in harmony,
The dog lives in disharmony,
Because he's forced to wear sarongs.

PUNS....get your hot fresh PUNS for the day :D

The ability to Make and Understand Puns Is the Highest Level of Language Development.

Here are the ten first place winners in an International Pun Contest:


1. A vulture boards an airplane, carrying two dead raccoons.
The stewardess looks at him and says, 'I'm sorry, sir, only one carrion allowed per passenger.


2. Two fish swim into a concrete wall. One turns to the other and says 'Dam!'


3. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, so they lit a fire in the craft.
Unsurprisingly it sank, proving once again that you can't have your kayak and heat it too.


4. Two hydrogen atoms meet. One says, 'I've lost my Electron.'
The other says 'Are you sure?' The first replies, 'Yes, I'm positive.'


5. Did you hear about the Buddhist who refused Novocain during a root canal?
His goal: transcend dental medication.


6. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. 'But why?', they asked, as they moved off.

'Because,' he said,' I can't stand chess-nuts boasting in an open foyer.'


7. A woman has twins and gives them up for adoption. One of them goes to Spain , they name him 'Juan'; the other went to a family in Egypt and is named 'Ahmal.' Years later, Juan sends a picture of himself to his birth mother. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she wishes she also had a picture of Ahmal.

Her husband responds, 'They're twins! If you've seen Juan, you've seen Ahmal.'


8. A group of friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise funds. Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the competition was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close. They ignored him. So, the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the roughest and most vicious thug in town to 'persuade' them to close.

Hugh beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he'd be back if they didn't close up shop. Terrified, they did so, thereby proving that only Hugh can prevent florist friars.


9. Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and, with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath.

This made him (this is so bad, it's good) a super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.


10. And finally, there was the person who sent ten different puns to friends, with the hope that at least one of the puns would make them laugh.

No pun in ten did.

So I finally log onto Human Pets and actually take a gander at stuff - and to my surprise I have a new pet. thinking to myself, what the heck? how? huh? who? por que?

Vigorously i scroll through my recent actions to see who gave me a new pet with infinite points? pondering, how could someone buy this dude if he has infinite points - do they too have infinite points in their personal money purse? why...of all people...him?

Frustrated and bewildered, I scroll back down to the picture....I look at the name, and the picture - it appears to be vaguely familiar as if I have seen that ugly mug before, but where......could it had been with friends?....never gonna give you up....that reminds me of a line in a song my dear friend Win and Erica serenaded us to with Win's cheesy white boy dance, as my korean friend says.

why? hmmm as I think to myself, my roomie reads to me the new HP news about this guy - and suddenly like a bolt of lightening during a thunderstorm which is what is about to happen right outside my dorm window - it strikes me. All that electricity rushes to my brain, and turns on my cerebral fluorescent lightbulb that is now eco-friendly, and the thought of realization as well as shame arose...

happy april's fools my butt - it's that cheesy 90's singer, with the bad music video. Like a dam that has been opened, it all came flooding back to me in a raging torrent! the singing, the dancing, the video staging - oh the horror, oh the cheesiness, oh what were they thinking back then.....

Horror-stricken I race to my roomie's HP page and see that she too has this daunting pet.....so half in curiosity and half bewilderment I click his face - suddenly I swept away to a land of mystery, a flashback as it were to the 90's - a childhood time.....where the times were odd still tainted by the 80's to some extent.

Sighing to myself, I conclude on April Fools - at least the day couldn't get any more cheesier after this trick. HP - they're very very sneaky...kudos!

ABUSED PET - ALL NATIONAL PET RIGHTS ACTIVISTS SHOULD LISTEN!!!

It is just not right, unhumanitarian to take an innocent little pet, namely this tailess tree kangaroo, that has had a previous abused life with it losing its tail and all, to be ripped up from its longtime-running owner and its happy down-under spread just to be taken away to a big city, to another life of abuse.

'The little kangaroo likes its new found "hangout" and doesn't want to keep being bought by random nonrandoms.
(in other words, I don't want to be bought; so if you are thinking about it, please ask me first...thanks)

STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN is the MAN!!!!

So Last week in zoology lab, my professor let us free to do our labs and he decided to play music for us to keep us going strong. He was in a blues rock mood, mainly for Stevie Ray Vaughan. I knew who he was, and I liked his music. But upon, re-hearing it in lab, my intense fascination with the man came back!

It's all Dr. Gier's fault, I told my roomie, who has been having to suffer through my continuous humming, and pitiful escuse of singing, also with my countless playing of videos on youtube. I can't get his music out of my head, his raspy voice, nor his extremely awesome guitar skills.

Soo, yesterday in lab, my professor played some more blues music, I had had it! I had to go buy a CD of Stevie Ray....and I did. And now, I am soo happy, and listening to it on my laptop and my mp3 player on the way to class, in class, in my room, my car, anywhere and everywhere.

Boy, I had really missed his music since when I first heard him. Hmmm, this weekend I'm going home, listening to him all the way, and with his sweet guitar playing, it makes me want to play it too, so I am gonna try and figure it out on my guitar.
