We Abhor Changes

It's Limerick Time, not Daylight Savings Time

Why, oh why the darned change of time?

It's punishment with neither reason nor rhyme!

Leave us alone and let life just go on...

Mother Nature be judge if dark be won!

No non-sensible changes would be truly sublime...

You Weren't Supposed to Find Out
“You weren’t supposed to find out.” “Oh? I wasn’t supposed to read my text messages? What, I should’ve ignored it instead? Give you a chance to take my phone and delete it?”
