A Shaggy Dog Story:

A woman noticed her aged dog was becoming deaf, so she took him to the vet.

When the vet checked, he discovered the problem was hair in the ears. Once he had removed it all, the dog was happily able to hear again. The vet explained to the woman that if she wanted to keep this from happening again she should get some "Nair," and rub it well into the dog's ears once a month.

So she headed down to the drugstore to get the Nair.

While he was handing it to her, the druggist added: "Just one warning with this product - if you intend using it under your arms, don't apply deodorant for a week."

The woman said, "Thanks, I will not be using it under my arms."

The salesman said, "Well, if you'll be using it all on your legs, don't shave them for three days."

The lady said, "No, I will not be using it on my legs... Ok, if you must know, I am using it on my schnauzer."

The druggist replied, "Then stay off your bike for a week.

A Doggy Shag Story:

A woman whose female dog was in heat, agreed to look after her neighbours' male dog while they were on holiday.

As she was dozing off on the first night, she heard terrible whining and moaning sounds. She rushed downstairs and found the dogs locked together in coitus. They were obviously in great pain but unable to disengage (as so often occurs when dogs mate).

Try as she may, she was unable to separate them and didn't know what to do. Although it was rather late at night, she decided to ring their family vet for advice.

"Yes, what is it!" answered the man in a very grumpy tone of voice.

She told him her problem.

The vet said, "Hang up the phone immediately and put it next to the dogs. I will phone you back and the disruption of the ringing will make the male lose its erection and slip out immediately."

"Do you think it'll work?" she asked.

"It just worked on me," he grunted and hung up.

Adie Pena with:
Seven retired Jewish fellows in Miami, Florida were playing poker in the condo clubhouse when Meyer loses $500 on a single hand. Meyer suddenly clutches his chest and drops dead at the table.

After momentarily showing respect for their fallen comrade Meyer, the other six immediately continue playing, but standing up.

At the end of the game, Finklestein looks around and asks, "So, who is going tell poor Meyer's big-mouthed wife?"

They agree to cut the cards. Goldberg picks the lowest card and has to carry the morbid news.

They tell Goldberg, "But be very discreet, be very gentle with her. ~
Don't make an awful situation any worse."

"Huh, discreet? Funny but discretion is my middle name. I'm probably the most renowned discreet person you'll ever meet. I surely won't exacerbate it."

Though bedtime, he goes over to Meyer's place and confidently knocks on the door. The ghastly, wretched screeching wife answers and asks what he wants.

The highly dependable Goldberg says to her, "Your husband just lost $500 in a single poker game and is terribly afraid to come home."

"Tell him to drop dead!" screeches the frightening wife.

"Great!" the perfectly relieved Goldberg replies, "I'll go tell him."

THE LAST TRUMP
by Banjo Paterson

"You led the trump," the old man said
With fury in his eye,
"And yet you hope my girl to wed!
Young man! your hopes of love are fled,
'Twere better she should die!

"My sweet young daughter sitting there,
So innocent and plump!
You don't suppose that she would care
To wed an outlawed man who'd dare
To lead the thirteenth trump!

"If you had drawn their leading spade
It meant a certain win!
But no! By Pembroke's mighty shade
The thirteenth trump you went and played
And let their diamonds in!

"My girl, return at my command
His presents in a lump!
Return his ring! For, understand,
No man is fit to hold your hand
Who leads a thirteenth trump!

"But hold! Give every man his due
And every dog his day.
Speak up and say what made you do
This dreadful thing -- that is, if you
Have anything to say!"

He spoke. "I meant at first," said he,
"To give their spades a bump,
Or lead the hearts; but then you see
I thought against us there might be,
Perhaps, a fourteenth trump!"

They buried him at dawn of day
Beside a ruined stump:
And there he sleeps the hours away
And waits for Gabriel to play
The last -- the fourteenth trump.

DONALD TRUMP
by the Headmaster of the Moneyed and the Authority on History

Dirty tiny shanty, no hot shower,
Life in that tatty dump.
With no utilities, no power.
Has no grand suite at Trump Tower.
Unless you're Donald Trump!

Hawaii and Mauritius are not
A hop, skip and a jump!
Forget the hideaway bay spot,
The drab ghetto is what you got.
Unless you're Donald Trump!

No syrupy dish from the East,
Eat no fruit ripe and plump.
No Wagyu beef, the greasy beast;
No healthy mead at the fine feast.
Unless you're Donald Trump!

The mind is numb, the thought is tired;
The mystery may stump.
Roadworthy daddy he had hired;
Stayed satisfied, midday he's fired.
Unless you're Donald Trump!

The bonehead didn't have the brain,
Vapid as Forrest Gump.
Was no war hero like McCain;
The triumph he'd never attain.
Unless you're Donald Trump!

Tattered beggar up to here in debt;
Huge economic slump!
Eightieth hit, defeated I bet;
Banking on the welfare he'll get.
Unless you're Donald Trump!

They're happiest when they wanna
Get the wealthiest hump.
Do not hug the great Miss Ghana;
Why even bed his private Ivana?
Unless you're Donald Trump!

PHANTASMAGORIA - CANTO I (The Trystyng )
By
Lewis Carroll

ONE winter night, at half-past nine,
Cold, tired, and cross, and muddy,
I had come home, too late to dine,
And supper, with cigars and wine,
Was waiting in the study.

There was a strangeness in the room,
And Something white and wavy
Was standing near me in the gloom -
I took it for the carpet-broom
Left by that careless slavey.

But presently the Thing began
To shiver and to sneeze:
On which I said "Come, come, my man!
That's a most inconsiderat e plan.
Less noise there, if you please!"

"I've caught a cold," the Thing replies,
"Out there upon the landing."
I turned to look in some surprise,
And there, before my very eyes,
A little Ghost was standing!

He trembled when he caught my eye,
And got behind a chair.
"How came you here," I said, "and why?
I never saw a thing so shy.
Come out! Don't shiver there!"

He said "I'd gladly tell you how,
And also tell you why;
But" (here he gave a little bow)
"You're in so bad a temper now,
You'd think it all a lie.

"And as to being in a fright,
Allow me to remark
That Ghosts have just as good a right
In every way, to fear the light,
As Men to fear the dark."

"No plea," said I, "can well excuse
Such cowardice in you:
For Ghosts can visit when they choose,
Whereas we Humans ca'n't refuse
To grant the interview."

He said "A flutter of alarm
Is not unnatural, is it?
I really feared you meant some harm:
But, now I see that you are calm,
Let me explain my visit.

"Houses are classed, I beg to state,
According to the number
Of Ghosts that they accommodate:
(The Tenant merely counts as WEIGHT,
With Coals and other lumber).

"This is a 'one-ghost' house, and you
When you arrived last summer,
May have remarked a Spectre who
Was doing all that Ghosts can do
To welcome the new-comer.

Re: The Excruciating Tale Of Matthew McGee And The Sorry Psychic Occurrence
By
Les Miserable

My boozing buddy Matt McGee
Is not the finest wit,
The Irish farmer sure can be
A monumental twit.

He has no wife and drinks all
Night, cold Guinness in a jar,
While perching on his favourite stool,
Located by the bar.

Our local inn, The Royal Crown
Is held in real esteem
It serves the finest beer in town
And has a great darts team!

One wild March night a man came in,
A stranger to these parts,
He bought himself a Gilbey's gin,
And watched the guys play darts.

"'Tis said dis place is haunted, sir,"
Matt grinned at him then laughed,
"Why, even now oi see ye have a
Spirit in your glass!"

The stranger uttered to McGee:
"How weird you mentioned this!
My occupation is, you see,
A psychic specialist!

"Tomorrow I am speaking at
Your local civic hall,
On ghosts and eerie things like that,
You're welcome, guys, to call!"

Well, Matt and I, we went off on
His tractor the next day,
To see that man (his name was Ron),
Hear what he had to say.

"Has anybody seen a ghost?"
Ron asked us right away;
And twenty hands went up, that's almost
Half the hall, I'd say.

"Wow! what a lot of hands!" yelled he,
"That is a nice surprise!
But I've another thing to ask, be
Truthful, tell no lies.

"Has anyone here touched a ghost?"
Ron ventured, "hand on heart?"
Some more went up, well three at most,
(One was the village tart).

"Wowee!" said Ron, I'm stunned
To see you've touched a heavenly host!
Now tell me true, has anyone
Here made love to a ghost?"

Then from the back, one voice came strong,
"Yes me! Oi have!" Matt cried.
"You've made love to a ghost?" gasped Ron,
"Wow! ... no word of a lie?"

Matt mumbled, "Wait a minute sir,
Er... did ye say "a ghost?
Oi beg your pardon, oi misheard,
... Oi thought ye said 'a goat'!"

THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER

O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

=

THE TSAR'S MANGLED SHAM-HAIR
(Bad Rug to Be Elected)

O say can we see, through the Don's pearly whites,
What so foully he wails, rich with greed that's unflagging?
Those brash statements appall; they go well to the Right,
With the wrong, snobby talk and perpetual bragging.
And the rotter's affairs, errors bursting on air,
Gave proof to the Left the guy isn't all there.
O say does that tsar's mangled sham-hair yet wave
O'er the brand that is he: e'er o'erblown and depraved?

Adie Pena with:
The more of my money I bet,
The more in return I shall net!
But, of course, should I lose,
IÂ’ll be singing the blues
As each bet, I regret, becomes debt.
=
Oh, each community member agrees
He hid his burst bubble in Greece!
Lost billions Euro;
Money to forego?
But he'll settle it, interest and fees!

Adie Pena with:
Dear Donald, IÂ’m begging you: Run!
Join the “clown car” and add to the fun.
A debate with your mouth
Is sure to go south.
Is there anyone nuttier? None!*
=
I find you're a showboat, just smug;
Note, not one idea; a moneyed thug!
Irritable -- no, RUDE!
And now to conclude...
Oh, is there anything under that rug?


Julian Lofts with:
The Circle of Life
(from the Lion King Musical)

From the day we arrive on this planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done

There is far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

It's the circle of life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle
The circle of life

It's the circle of life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle
The circle of life

Cecil The Lion

Cecil the African lion, supposedly protected in his game park
Hunters lured him to his death with fresh meat
Walter Palmer, the dentist from Minnesota, the 'brave hunter',
He had perfect, ultra-bright teeth

Cecil the vulnerable lion
Killed by a puffed up dentist
With longbow and arrows
This 'valorous' vainglorious gaffe
Confronting, frightening
The marvellous lion,
Sentence offenders!
Hang the demon felons!
Fee-fie-fo-fuck him!

Cecil the lion
Roared in pain,
Pierced through
His heart
Cecil the African lion,
Decapitated
And skinned
Arrgghh!

Tourists liked
Cecil the lion,
People - save the lions,
Value them in future
Hold on
Never hunt
To the death
Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!

Rosie Perera with:
In the jungle, the mighty jungle
The lion sleeps tonight
In the jungle, the quiet jungle
The lion sleeps tonight

Wimoweh...

Near the village, the peaceful village
The lion sleeps tonight
Near the village, the quiet village
the lion sleeps tonight

Wimoweh...

Hush my darling, don't fear my darling
The lion sleeps tonight
Hush my darling, don't fear my darling
The lion sleeps tonight

Wimoweh...

Ee-e-e-oh-mum-a-weh

Requiem

Welllll...
In July, in muggy July,
The lion ran for his life tonight.
With meat as a lure, he left his enclosure.

Weemm-eh-weh...
The lion died tonight
Some hep violent galumphing Minnesota dentist
All aglee, had to get his trophy.

Plunge, tangle, gag 'n gulp.
The lion's head got severed tonight.

Vehement men;
The lion's pelt was stolen tonight.
Juveniles will join him in quiet mortality.

Ahhhhhhhhhh! Gee, gee, geeeeeee, we wept.

Adie Pena with:
There once was a Lion King fan,
Who loved it as much as one can.
"No worries! She'd say
And watch it all day,
Hoping somehow to join Simba's clan.
=
Oh, how can anyone?! Slain by a dentist?!
Enough of a void! Oh, Cecil is missed.
How can Walter
'Jackass' Palmer?!
Now a moron's high on a 'Wanted' list!
