Good one!! We have a Jungle theme going ...

As Jane discovered,
Tarzan's loincloth may be hot,
ah, but underneath ...

Jane helps Tarzan dress.

Jane helps Tarzan dress.
Shirt, trousers, socks, shoes and hat

THIS IS GREAT

THIS IS A CREATIVE CORNER!

And you are the most creative guy I have read in years.

Here

Why didn't you use the car phones.

Jason
We had to turn them off. Something about them being on the same frequency as all the pacemakers.

Tom
You fell for that old trick?

I am not sure why but now I wish to close in on Cheney with my car phone.

hahahah

I will come back.

Lovely DD. Just lovely.

Lovely DD. Just lovely.

I think to myself,
I could have done much better
if things were diff'rent.

But what I did's all there is
and besides, what do I know?

I was a child for
most of my life ... apparently
that's not a parent.

I will get back to Chapter

I will get back to Chapter two.

All I got is this on Haikus:

The fear that I will die

And no one will remember....

Somehow my son is

there and he remembers, Why?

I do not know why.

I could have been so

Better, but I guess what I

Did then was enough

Enough for what? I

Really have no clue as I

Recall in these days

I could have done much

better, much better that time

I am so lucky

I am so very lucky

To have my children

Some of the children

Remember things I just don't

That is all I have

I DO LOVE

Jeepers, moat! (I thought I'd try a different response other than 'nice one, moat!')

Jane and her Kindle,
eschew muscular contractions
by reading tea leaves.

Putting his head down.
leaning into the cold rain,
give Tarzan headache.

Treating infections
with rhetorical questions,
is asking too much.

Treat the infection

Treat the infection
with rhetorical questions.
Poultice wound with rage.

Energetic steps,
leaning into the cold rain,
compress fallen leaves.

Spattered by faint praise,
he beat his chest like Tarzan.
Jane kept on reading.

Oh yes. I remember Odettes

In reply to Thanks for that great story.

Oh yes. I remember Odettes well ... and Jessica Savitch. I think I was still working at WNBC-TV when she had that infamous news update moment.

Thanks for that great story.

In reply to Robin was a wonderful mix of

Thanks for that great story. Pate in Trenton, love it. You painted a great picture.

BTW, restaurant was Odettes. Later it was noted as the restaurant from which Jessica Savitch, driving out the wrong gate, drove into a canal, overturning her car.
