Yep -

You might say I have a 'Relationship' with THEM!

NO ... Not the Nurses (I WISH) - the SPUDS - Silly!

“SPUDS”

© - Tom Hyland - 5/5/11


Never met an Irish or Idaho Tater
I didn’t Like!
Can’t say the same for Sweet Taters
And/or Yams - Yuk!


Potatoes, or Spuds, any way but Raw -
Baked, Mashed, Hashed, Fried, French-Fried,
Boiled, Broiled, Au Gratin ...
Any way prepared - never Rotten!


Chopped, Diced - even Grated -
Spuds tickle my Taste Buds,
Never ever Over-Rated -
“You say Po-tat-o - I say Po-tot-o!”


“Let’s call the Whole Thing Off!”
Any way you Cut It -
My hat I will Doff!
Even ‘Potato Buds’ is Spuds!


Baked - Smothered in Both Sour Cream And Butter -
‘Ooh-La-La’ - I will Sputter!
Western Fries - Doused with Both Ketchup And Tabasco -
Mashed - Drowning in Gravy!


Yep - I’m a ‘Meat n’ Potatoes Man’
Gim’me, Gim’me, Gim’me - All that You Can!
My Belly Sticks out - in All my Duds -
‘Cause I Really Love my - SPUDS!

(C) - TKH.

P.S. ... PEEWEE ... YEP ... TATERS IS GOOD!

I forgot to include my all-time favorite kind - that which probably built most of my magnanimous Belly .... POTATO CHIPS !

Especially the UTZ brand - Regular, Ripple, Kettle-Cooked, Old Bay, BBQ, Sour Cream n' Chives, Bacon-Cheese ... er, ah, um ...

be back in a sec - got an Urge comin' on .......

'SPUD-MAN' ...

Mashers and gravy is my fave. By the way, your photo is of the Heart Attack Grill whose spokesperson just died of, well you know, a heart attack. A fine poster child. I wrote an allegedly humorous poem about it a few months back. Patrick

I also love potato's, but they are full of carbs & carbs break down into sugar and sugar "can" be a killer for me...so I rarely eat them...though I do love Herr's chips, a comfort food for me...fun write, TK.............Jerseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey

Wow! I better hide my loyal old mutt named 'Tater' from you, he wouldn't like being devoured by the Spud Man.

PS: He survived Katrina by being tossed some daily French Fries by some very kind-hearted demolition workers down on the Gulf Coast.

You of course realize how to tell which potato in a bunch is the prostitute? The one with I-da-ho stamped on it!!!

Standing On My Knees by Pinkstone

I met Jerome on a busy city street in Baltimore, Maryland, when he was forty-five years old. On that particular day, I was out and about, enjoying a much-needed day off from work. I wanted to purchase a sukiyaki sub. I parked my car in an area of
