Gorilla C
Does anyone ever say “Hey look, there’s a giant blow-up gorilla. Let’s go see what they’re selling…” ? I must say though, that I LOVE the blow up gorillas. They also make blow-up chickens for your sell-yer-stuff needs. I’d rent that!
And thank you, Jude, for helping me with the Limerick…You are the Queen of silly verse!!!
AHHHH !!! ITS GORILLA !!
ummm….
I meant to say godzilla, so umm yeah…
its 7 am leave me alone !
where’s my coffee ?
There once was an artist name Bridgett,
Who with pencil and paper did fidget,
She went on an excersion
I created recursion:
Poem’s about drawing gorillas not midget.
🙂
For the record, your name is a lot harder to rhyme with! 😀
And er, excursion, not excersion. I need an editor.
I should rent a giant purple blow-up gorilla for my friend’s birthday this week, now THAT would be a suprise :).
Frank: Gorillazilla? 😉
Gorillazilla… chuckle, chuckle…
& Mr. McDuff… I like yer verse… my aunt used to call me Bridgett the Midget when I was a kid… the funny thing is, that as adults, she is no bigger than me! Alas, we are both in the “shortish” area.
Anyhoo… widget, bridget, midget, digit, fidget, squidget… hee hee, that’s fun.
Meggie… you should soooo rent a blow-up gorilla… and it must be photo-documented!!! You could do a whole gorilla theme. There could be cocktails called pink gorillas (I know it’s not purple, but pink sounds better)… and you could stick those little plastic monkeys on the sides of the glass! Oooo, and have silly 60’s music (wait for it)… like songs from the MONKEYS!
In my youth, just after the earth’s crust cooled and dinosaurs roamed, we followed surplus WW2 arc lights sweepng the night sky to McDonald’s and Chevy dealership openings. Good times…good times…
Too bad her birthday party is this saturday so I can’t attempt any of that. Buuuuuuuut I have another friend who has a birthday in a few months and she “doesn’t wanna any fuss” (when people say that, they’re just ASKING to be birthday-mobbed). You were probably joking but I am SO doing that now :), I can’t resist a crazy/awesome idea when I hear one!
When I was a little kid, once a month we’d drive up from Madison to LaCrosse, WI on State Route 16 to visit my aunt and uncle and cousins. The highlight of the trip was when we were just outside Sparta and we drove by a business that made the big, plastic animals that are used by other businesses. Dad always slowed down so we could marvel at the colorful and massive plastic creations.
*sigh* The I-90 zips you from Madison to LaCrosse now in half the time and one-tenth the fun.
Pete, that sounds like fun. There are Large Dinosaurs on the way to Palm Springs… You can stop and go in them; there’s a gift shop in the “Bronto”saurus. It’s a fun and silly landmark.
Meggie: I want pictures when you do this!
Hey, Brig!
The Wheel Inn! I know that place. I’m from Arizona but lived in Orange County, CA for about seven years. The I-10 trip took you right by the place. Only ONCE was the museum in the dinosaur open, and we didn’t miss the chance. Talk about cheese-y! Right out of the 1950s. We loved it!
Yes, the Wheel Inn! Ha! The dinos were always a landmark…
Mom: Look for the dinosaurs… they’re out there.
Me (in the back seat): ooo, ooo!
I have a great photo somewhere of adult Bridgett in front of the “Tyrano” (which I remember being built).
