Requiem in Jersey

“I told you big & older Bro’,
That paybacks are a bitch,
All that rain sent to you courtesy of the Jersey Devil,
Cause of all those times that you were a Pee Wee snitch.”


 


AD Member Ed Matlack,


From His Extremely Cruel Poem,


Thunder Boomers Attacking Chicago


 


 


This is how my brother thanks me


For rigging that Bingo Game for him


Thank God, the Ark is finally finished


And I hope that old Jersey Devil can swim


 


I heard he won a fortune last night at the Bingo Hall


But I wonder where he thinks he’ll be able to spend it


That Jersey Devil has just unleashed his very own Hell


Soon, the error of his ways will cause a Jersey Devil fit


 


The floodwaters that he sent will soon be sweeping us eastward


We’ll be passing right by his old motor home on the Jersey shore


A little birdy informed me that everything from Chicago to Jersey


Will soon be swept away, and they’ll be underwater, for ever more


 


 


“Dear Brother Ed, You Jersey Devil, You,


I truly hope you have repented all your sins,


Tell good old Rufuz that I will toss him a lifeline,


But, you, Bro, best be careful of all them Jersey fins”


 


Paybacks Truly Are a Bitch,


And She Has Some Nasty Teeth, Too..


 


Bon Voyage, My Jersey Devil Bro,


And One Very Last, “HO, HO, HO!”


 


And I Sure Hope My Old Chum, Little Andy Turner


Has Stocked Enough Food To Feed All These Critters


They’ll be Mighty Hungry By the Time We Reach England


 


But I Hear That She May Soon Be Goin Under, Too


Andy, Start Roundin Up Them Critters at the London Zoo


 


 


And I will sail my vessel
'Til these waters subside,
Like a bird upon the wind,
These waters will be my sky



I'll never reach my destination
If I never try,
So I will sail this leaky old vessel,
'Til these
Jersey Devil flood waters subside


 


 


☺2007, Pee Wee Noah Ed

For us who rode in our carriages to watch the battle and have a picnic lunch. What shall we do when Pittsburg and Atlanta become the newest coastal cities?

LOL. It's done nothing but rain here. You'll sure feel at home.
I have some baked beans, that should freshen things up...

Hope the war eases soon; hope the weather settles down there. It's either feast or famine; no happy inbetween. Crazy weather patterns we are having lately; yikes!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

ED & ED: EDit... i.e. ( id est )...

It is not very EDifying for others' EDifices to be destroyed because of a couple of Whippersnappers 'pranks' on one another! Yeah, I know, "Boyz will be Boyz".

But is it not time that the ole HATCHET get buried in the ole CHERRY TREE?

"I CANNOT TELL A LIE" to youse guys... certainly does NOT APPLY!

ERGO... REPARATIONS are in order: Firstly, OLE FART ED must use the MILLIONS he won at Bingo to rebuild Illinois, with a SPECIAL FUND also set aside for all the lil stranded CRITTERS!

Secondly, lil PEE-WEE ED must learn to 'turn the other cheek' ... so to SPEAK. "Vengeance is Mine" saith The Lord! SO... wishing REQUIEM...R.I.P. just for payback of a few teensy-weensy 'PUDDLES' is certainly OVER-KILL!

ERGO... lil bro, must say: 5 "OUR FATHERS"... 3 "HAIL MARY'S" ... and REMOVE ALL THEM DAMNED SHARKS FROM THE JERSEY SHORE... some 'INNOCENT' SOPRANOS might git accidentally BIT!

And finally... BOTH EDS must SHAKE HANDS, KISS-KISS ON EACH CHEEK (upper or lower, your choice)... BIG BEAR HUGS... and resolve in the future to always use the RULES that were in "The Quiet Man" by Victor McLaughlin and 'The Duke'... MARQUIS OF QUEENSBURY RULES... no Biting, no Gouging, no Arm-twisting, no Ear-biting, no Sucker-Punching, no "Cold-Cocking" after the Bell has rung, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera...

NOW BOYS... GO TO YOUR CORNERS... BLOW EACH OTHER A KISS... SAY A GOOD 'ACT OF CONTRITION'... take 2 aspirin, and call me in the morning! WHY?

'Cause as of Midnight last night I turned 67... so it's my party and I WON'T CRY if I don't want to! AND THAT'S MY LEGAL, REGAL DECREE!

J-PAL... Joy-Peace-Abundance-Love... TOM TERRIFIC !!!

Man, your stuff is a wild ride! Too creative! Let's hope those rains stop, but the "old Indians" predicted someday an inland sea right about where it's been raining now. How do you think of this stuff, Captain Ed?
