Ahhh, a woman after my own heart.

-
LOLOLOLOL.
-
the saying about going to our grave with a glass of wine and howling what a ride - well this is YOU!
I adore this, every well mannered tradition for the 'older' man or woman totally trashed in one foul swoop and its great.
who say the young have all the fun
Vonnie -
clap, clap, clap, clap...standing O, Wolf Whistle. More More More!

I don't even know what to say. I laughed the whole way through reading your poem. Then I listened to the audio and it was a little scary. lol This is great! Do you by any chance teach High School?
-
Wow........I love this......I will have to wait to play the music.......kids watching a movie right now so it is pointless to even try that as the TV is right here.............
Best of luck in the contest..........this was great......got a laugh that was very well needed.........thanks............

absolutely and magnificently beautiful! NOW THIS IS LIFE. hahahhahaa! this should be the anthem to life or breath or something. its totally off the wall and i think you picked the perfect words. absolutely and hilariously fun!!!
-
oh this was good!! very good. I laughed all throughout the read...very well penned. Kudos
Rory -
Thank you muchly, OctoberRain. The more smiles the merrier!
-
PHewww... another friend spared the agony of sound. I'm feeling better about this all the time.
Thank you for catching the rebellion fever. I do think we all need to throw off our 'proper' skins from time to time, if only in our imagination.
-
Well. I like how fun this poem is. Very nice, and very well written!
~OctoberRain~ -
Couldn't hear the audio but enjoyed the read - great lyrics, and sentiments well expressed in these lines - we feel the rebellion and the need to do these things you say you will do - good write.
-
Thanks, Seth. Glad you got a chuckle out of my twisted imaginings. Worse than those though are my attempts at singing. Makes one wonder if there won't be a spontaneous outburst of the hallelujah chorus when I go.
-
Very funny and amusing, had me going the whole way, I ove the lyrics and the music and can imagine that there is no-one that wouldn't be laughing at this if they really read it. Congradulatuions on a great write and good luck in the contest.
Seth -
Yippeee! NoWayJo is back to her old self. Phewww...that frees up at least two memory cells in this decrepit brain of mine.
I must admit I found many more rules of life to break the more I wrote. I'm giggling to think of your (in)significant other wearing pink panties. There may be justice in the world, after all!
You two have been spared the agony of listening to me croak out an attempt at singing the first part to the 'tune' of Yellow Rose of Texas. Do yourself a favor and hum it for yourself. I wouldn't want our friendship smooshed by torturing your ear drums.
hugs,
Jane -
heartnsoul,
Be grateful for life's small gifts -- that of NOT having to hear my rendition of this. That in itself is a very good reason NOT to repair those drivers. Remember what I said about facesless poets? ... I think it is the same in this situation for silent ones.
-
unfortunately, my speakers aren't working here, but I could almost hear these poem-lyrics rapped-ranted out! and it's so Un-Jane of anything I've ever read of you, but I can't say I hadn't been prewarned about this unconventional streak in you!
enjoyed the read for so many things...and I'll even admit to actually DOING some of these things myself, although I washed whites with red--(not blue) once and me and an (in)significant other had pink panties for a long, long time!
Jo -
As you know i don't have the sound, but genuinely didn't need it. I fell off my chair laughing, coffee came out of my nose, my screen is now getting the good cleaning it's been waiting for!!! My goodness Jane, you out did yourself on this one!I can just see you defiantly breaking all the golden rules!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Great background!!!Not only is this hilarious but it is smooth as silk.

Blame it on galfalfa ... she's the one who 'inspired' me to give it a shot with all those wonderful prizes.
Now that I've dared put it out here for the world to hear, I'm planning an extended beach visit where I can safely bury my head in the sand.
I knew I had to get this one out of the way today if I was to have a hope of trying out your latest contest. (seems I am only alloted so much creativity in a day)
hugs to you, Ann. You give me courage. -
ROFLMAO...... ooh Jane. I didnt know you had it in you.
This is brilliant and I just can't stop laughing. I need to bookmark this one for sure.
Brilliant. good luck in the contest.
Ann
-
You're too kind, leo. I've got my fingers crossed for the ultimate booby prize.
-
Excellence personified in my book. The audio quality was much better on this take. My ribs will be smarting tomorrow for sure. Thanks for sharing your rare talent with us. Mucho luck in the contest.
Sincerely,
Leo Long -
I'm still laughing at myself. ONLY YOU could manage to wiggle this embarassing revelation out of me. I'm still shaking my head at the idea of trying to figure out how to do a rap. I missed it by a mile, but it sure was fun trying.
Hey, you don't teach for all these years and not figure out how to at least sound intimidating on cue, you know. Unfortunately, my kids were on to me... they knew I'd growl and then have to turn around to hide my giggles.
Now, do you have that duct tape at the ready?

LMAO Jane
...LMAO again Jane
Gosh is that really you??? Gee you sound like you could beat the crap outta me
I'll remember to be nicer to you in the future
I loved hearing you - you sound like a teacher i used to have that would make me stay after school and clean the black boards - What a creation you have made me ...Loved it all Jane - your voice, your singing - all hilarious and perfect for your poem
Still giggling here - I've listen to it a few times
Loved this and thank you dear heart for doing this - stepping out of your comfort zone
-
I'm laughing my ass off...with you! of course. Your lyrics had me busting a seam. I was so glad I went to the bathroom before I heard them. The yankee doodle dandy theme was perfect.
I'm still working on mine. Trying to get a take without the hoots of my audience! -
and would that be laughing at OR laughing with?
Give your roomie my sincerest apologies.
Now get to it, girl! I don't want my bare ass hanging out all by itself.
I'm considering also putting in the recordings that were even WORSE than this --- if one can imagine there is such a thing.
-
You got a standing ovation over here! I laughed so hard, I woke up my roommate hehe.
Bravo!
