Here is my explanation when someone asks me for my ASL. I hope you like it.

ASL
by Barbara Lynn Terry

Excuse me but are you female?
Yes I am, are you a male?
Oh that would be fine. How about you?

Oh! Alright, but just one thing.
Okay, go ahead and fling.
May I have your ASL please.

A = amiable and at ease
S = sun in the sky
L = live like you were gonna die.

No! No! ASL is age, sex, location.
Oh that ASL okay here is my explanation.
I am between 0 and 4,000 years old,

I am one of the sexes or maybe in between
And I live somewhere in the cosmos.
Does that answer your question?

... your quick and ready answer lives up to your own version of ASL nicely, Barbie! You are totally amiable and at ease, radiate verve and joie de vivre like the sun in the sky AND you live like Peter Pan: the immortal who loved to dice with daredevil danger every fanciful day of his action-packed existance! WTG! I have been thinking of you since you let me know of your current circumstances and my love and prayers are much with you as you rest and recuperate. I do hope and trust all has gone well and that you are, by now, well into the plain sailing and happy straits of the recovery zone. Bless you, xx

I guess that happens when you're filling out an application form for something. They should have a new gender in the gender category, i.e. Neutral to avoid discriminations of any sorts.

This is real cute. When I've filled in information on forms, I've so wanted to jot down the first thought that came to mind instead of the actual answer. I even did so once on the box that said "sex". I wrote, "I wish!" LOL

Barbara,
This is so more true than anyone can imagine..I was on a few dating sites when I got divorced and let me tell you, you need to be a detective to survive on those sites..I am no longer there, thank goodness.

Much peace, love and light,
Amber

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
