splish splash
Tale as old as time:
Girl meets fish. Girl boinks fish. Girl
goes off the deep end.
evasion of the body snatchers

She spelled it out on
the rural route. Justice now!
Somehow. Burma-Shave.
sand trap
We shall film on the
beaches. We shall film in the
hills. No surrender.
that’s no lady — that’s my life
Not about the first
lady nor Hank Hill’s bloodhound
on “King of the Hill.”
