 THE TEMPER TANTRUM

 

He threw a temper tantrum,

And stomped all around.

He held his breath till he turned blue,

And jumped up and down.

 

It was a royal conniption.

A real hissy fit.

The whole thing was caught on video,

And now he’s a You Tube hit.

I have to agree with Ron! "Unfortunately, it seems like the outrageous/notorious ones always seem to get more attention."
Even so, it's good to live a respectable life, even before God and man!

I'm glad your posting so many of your funnies again--really love them!

I am amazed at how fads have been coming and going since I was a kid and other kids had to have "the latest thing." Now we have idiotic behavior placed on YouTube to see how many hits we can get from stupidity. Both the good and the bad can receive notoriety and fame. Unfortunately, it seems like the outrageous/notorious ones always seem to get more attention.

Newsflash! I read it again. You're writing about Donald Trump! ;-)
