ReplyDeleteWhat a fun 55!
Well I enjoyed most of it! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHA! I'm now flashing on Joxer the Mighty. And as adam says, those poetic last lines are just classic. I'm filled with a strange sense of deja vu, as if I'd heard them in a past life--or passing out in a saloon, or something.
ReplyDeleteClosing with an old joke. Classic take to get there. Nice.
