Maus Noir, Best hider on her block...

[msfledermaus]

...Best hider, that is, until I heard that giggle behind me. I froze in place, Fresca in one hand and rumpled Monkey-comic in the other.

I knew that laugh...

(No, it wasn't Jabba the Hut. Pay attention! Sheesh!)

Ilona stood before me, head thrown back with her mocking laughter, finger just inches away from Tagging me. She'd found me. I didn't know how, but she found me...

I did the only thing a cornered Maus could do--
"Hey, did you read the new Shecky the Monkey King comic? Shecky loses his loincloth in this one!"
And as Ilona tentatively reaches for the salacious pulp comic, I shake up the Fresca can, point the top and yell,

"Don't move!!! I'm not afraid to use this!!!!

Ms Eff, cliffhanging again..when will it all end?
Will Ilona get Fresca'd? Will Fledermaus be Tagged? Will people get sick of this and start throwing tomatoes?

Tomatoes (wheeeeeeSPLAT!)

To market, to market went my brother Jim
Somebody threw a tomato at him
Now tomatoes are soft and they don't hurt the skin
But this one did - it was still in the tin

Not mine. My father used to sing it. He liked comic songs. Maybe Flanders and Swann?

He was also fond of this snippet:

Gentlemen will please refrain
From flushing toilets while the train
Is standing at a station or a stop
We encourage constipation
While the train is in the station...

There must be more, but either he didn't know it, or I've forgotten it.

I think that's wonderful!!! (I love you British folks, they have the best funny poems, really.)

Tom Lehrer's pretty good, though...

"All the world is in tune on a spring afternoon,as we poison the pigeons int he park;
Every Sunday you'll see my sweetheart and me as we poison the pigeons in the park;
Whenever they see us, the birdies all try and hide,
But they still go for peanuts when coated with cyaniiiide...

But it's not against any religion
To want to dispose of... a pigeon

Seems there's lots of variation
To the song on constipation
