olderndirt Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Am learning to do things as they cross the front of my memory otherwise they're back on that 'who knows when' ride through what I laughingly call my brain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawrence aldrich Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Well....there are the tv series the walking dead, the talking dead. So why not the sitting dead ? At least it's more comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 That reminded me of this that my mother knew by heart. Quote One fine day in the middle of the night, Two dead men got up to fight, Back to back they faced each other, Drew their swords and shot each other, One was blind and the other couldn't, see So they chose a dummy for a referee. A blind man went to see fair play, A dumb man went to shout "hooray!" A paralysed donkey passing by, Kicked the blind man in the eye, Knocked him through a nine inch wall, Into a dry ditch and drowned them all, A deaf policeman heard the noise, And came to arrest the two dead boys, If you don't believe this story's true, Ask the blind man he saw it too!

I can imagine your mother with a twinkle in her eye while reciting this to you kids. My folks used to delight in nonsense rhymes too. I miss that twinkle.

There were certain poems, limericks and such that were required memorizing - some more vulgar than others . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
