ROFLMAO (an acrostic)

Riotously jocular
Overwhelming and so droll
Funny more than anything this
Laughter of the soul
Marvelously humorous
Amusingly gleeful
Overboard hilarity is always such a thrill!

Thanks JInxed

I don't about the full title though, because it would almost be as long as the poem! Glad you enjoyed it! Respectfully, Jim "Laws and rules don't kill freedom: narrow-minded intolerance does" : Race

Nice, Jim!

I'd tend to agree with you on the title, as it would be a bit much. Funny some of the stuff that gets written about! ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- -"And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication And silent replies that swirl invitation Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea A grim intimation of what is to be" - Pink Floyd

Thanks, Jim!

The picture is one of those felt things that you color in. (the coloring part is cardboard, all the black is felt) You get 4 markers with it, and I found them boring, so I put some pink and orange in there too with Hi-light markers. Not a bad way to spend $3 at Michael's, and $15 for a little frame for it! (Michaels is a craft supply store that I'm horribly addicted to. All my yarn and everything comes from them) After that, I just took a picture of the picture! I actually recommend it for kids, 'cause it's cool, and you can frame it afterwards - she's hanging in our living room, and I'm quite proud of her. I love all that type stuff as well, and collect little figurines and such. I wish I could draw them, as that would really make my day. ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- -"Handle every situation like a dog: if you can't eat it, or screw it, piss on it and walk away!"
