Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

Emily Dickinson rhymed words like 'day' and 'me', so I don't see why 'orange' and 'porridge' couldn't work.
Well, Emily's not here, is she? This is my poem and I make the rules.

(Pssst, I'm not really writing a poem, much less one that rhymes, and much much less one that needs to rhyme with ornage) (or orange)

since it's Good Friday, unless you can give me dispensation - I'll be fasting and then eating fish.
But have a happy birthday, anyway.......

(gee- I didn't realize you were OLDER than me!! :D )

Not with my accent. 'Orange' and 'porridge' have one syllable but 'carnage' has two.

:lol:

It's a Catholic thing Walden. They don't eat meat on days of abstinence like Good Friday...Fish is allowed though.

At least that is how I remember it from my childhood...

Loved and thought himself beloved,
From a glad kindness cannot take his eyes.

Hmmm... what to do for Dale's B-day?... hmmm, and again, hmmmmm...

Wish him loads of good times, tunes, eats and imbibables, I suppose... it would work for me, and I do believe in the goldn rule... "Happy, happy Birthday, from all of us to you... we wish it was our birthday, so we could party too!" OY!

Cran, that's a very nice Foghorn Leghorn.

I'll be playing at church on GF so maybe I can throw in a few special notes for Dale's birthday.

This is freaky! I've got the same birthday as Dale. I'll be 49 too. The theme of Outer Limits is now playing. I'm freaking out.
