The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for October 14, 2009

That !@#$*! Dumbo!

I really hate to do this, but …….. When I was a kid _ty+ years ago, we had a little poem.

Little birdie, up in the sky, Why did you do that in my eye. I’m not mad, so please don’t cry. I’m just glad that cows can’t fly.

Guess that would go for elephants, too, huh?

Ben_David, I remember that one.

If only, why not? when there are so many deserving.

Least it didn’t break the windshield.

OMG!I had to put my coffee down before i spilt it.This is so funny.The ‘I’m gonna puke”look on his face is priceless.

What happens when pigs fly?

He should be glad that Dumbo is only a BABY elephant!!

Baby kaka is always worse.

I wonder if Dumbo hires out. There’s a big white domed building… …

Our version: Birdie, birdie in the sky, Dropped a turdie in my eye. I’m a big boy I won’t cry, I’m just glad that cows don’t fly.

Funny how the ditty gets around and gets altered just a bit.

wow, i’m glad i have a carport to cover my cars

OK, MY childhood version: “Birds fly low and birds fly high, and birds drop whitewash in my eye. I’m a big boy, and I don’t cry, but gee, I’m glad that cows don’t fly.”

Yucky!!! My dog would love to stick her nose in it though!

Now, I’ve done seen eve-ry-thing!
