My mouse,
You arrived in my life twelve years ago,
Always reliable,
Helped me with the homework my professors gave me,
Helped me post my stories,
As well as helped keep me entertained with movies and games.
As one computer and then another left my side,
You have not,
I never had a problem with you,
For as long as I fed you with a battery every so often,
You were satisfied.
And for that,
I am grateful.
May we have many years to come,
My computer mouse.

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
