My Ode to Saltine Crackers

Saltine Crackers are the best,

I admit without duress.

I like them in my Wendy’s chili,

or Vince’s soup: Get in my belly!!

My love for Saltine’s started young,

fresh from school, I’d have me some.

Eat a whole bag and not get sick,

wash them down with Nestles Quick.

I admit, alone they’re dry,

and lacking taste, I cannot lie.

But sometimes they just hit the spot,

especially if that’s all ya got.

I cannot stop this much is true,

I love my Saltines through and through.

Please don’t hate me for this quirk,

My 12-step program just didn’t work.

The stomach flu roared through our house starting Sunday night.  I was the first victim, followed closely by Karen, Corey, and then Justin.  Josh was the only one left standing.  Better now, and managed to make it back to work today. 

The Force!!

Silly Me

I’m often accused of being silly,

Of treating the world all willy-nilly.

But in my defense,

Some things just don’t make sense,

Like the singing of Milli Vanilli.

So what’s so very wrong with being goofy,

It’s not like I slipped you a roofy.

My own view of life,

Causes many great strife,

So join me, we’ll dance the boogie woogie.

I’ve even been told I’m sarcastic,

My humor even thought of as caustic.

Why am I to blame,

If you are so lame,

I think I’m rather fantastic. 

I don’t think I’ll change in the long run,

My own view of life is to have fun.

I just have to laugh,

Though you may think I’m daft,

'cause the joke is on me when all's said and done.
