Brevity by Dan Thompson for July 29, 2016

“Look what we found in the park, in the dark…”

A charming line, when you read it in a Dr. Seuss book..not so appealing, if you read it on a sushi menu….

I do not like them Sam I am

Best strip – and comments – of the day! (And a special nod – again – to Susan.)

Love this one – and the comments.

Les poissons, les poissonsHow I love les poissonsLove to chop and to serve little fishFirst I cut off their headsThen I pull out their bonesAh mais oui, ca c’est toujours déliceLes poissons, les poissonsHee hee hee, haw haw hawWith a cleaver I hack them in twoI pull out what’s insideAnd I serve it up friedGod, I love little fishes, don’t you?Here’s something for tempting the palatePrepared in the classic techniqueFirst you pound the fish flat with a malletThen you slash through the skinGive the belly a sliceThen you rub some salt in‘Cause that makes it taste niceZut alors, I have missed one!Sacre bleu, what is this?How on earth could I missSuch a sweet little succulent crabQuel Domage, what a lossHere we go, in the sauceNow some flour I think just a dabNow I stuff you with breadIt don’t hurt, ‘cause you’re dead!And you’re certainly lucky you are‘Cause it’s gonna be hot in my big silver pot!Tout aloo mon poissonAu revoir

@Susan SunshineIt’s also best not to hop on Pop in the dark……you might miss him completely!

DEAD FISH, STEW FISH!
