Did You Hear About Drink My Daily Veggies?

Archie Brown is a about sixty pounds overweight. He has a degree in physical education, so it is not a matter of not knowing what it would take to lose the excess weight. The problem is that Archie does not like green and leafy vegetables that are a necessary part of a healthy diet and maintaining an acceptable weight for healthy living. But when Archie heard about a new alternative vegetable supplement called Drink My Daily Veggies, he was very intrigued. He knew that he would never commit to eating the daily vegetables required; he believed he could drink them without any great difficulty.

Lane Labs has company that specializes in daily supplements to aid a healthy diet. The company has recently released a top of the line nutritional supplement and is making thousands of free sample packets of the product. They hope that those who sample the product will realize not only the nutritional value of the supplement, but also any number of other benefits that the packets offer. The supplement packs would make great food for those on the go, as a healthy addition to a camping or backpacking trip, or for guys like Archie Brown, who know they need the veggies, but will not eat them.

Did You Hear About My Friend's Grandson Remembering Me?

After the game, Archie Brown's wife and he waited to speak to Zack. They caught him near the fence and Archie told him he had had a letter from his grandfather. Archie was surprised that he remembered meeting Arch when he was a little boy. He had come to church with his grandfather and they went into Archie's office. Zack recalled seeing some of Archie's special baseball cards and memorabilia. Archie can’t wait to tell his grandfather.

Did You Hear About The Nice Outing for My Friend's Grandson?

In the ninth inning, the visiting team scored a run on a double followed by a sharp single. That made the score 8-4. To try to stop the rally, the Toros’ manager brought in Archie Brow's friend’s grandson. He got a ground ball out and a pop up to third for two quick outs. The third batter got a hit, putting runners on first and third. Zack got the last out by getting the batter to fly out to right field. The Toros did not score in the bottom of the ninth, but Archie got to see his friend’s grandson have a nice outing.

Did You Hear About The Request In The Letter?

Archie Brown's friend wrote a real live letter in an envelope that was delivered by the postman, to tell me that his grandson is playing on the Bay Area Toros. That is a baseball team in a new independent league, based in the city in which Archie lives. He wanted Archie to go see the team and watch his grandson. Some requests are easy to fulfill!

Did You Hear About The Letter From My Friend?

Archie Brown received a letter from an old friend yesterday. He had moved from Archie's hometown about ten years earlier. He is now 86 and not seeing too well, but he is still active. Arch used to play golf with him occasionally. He would aggravate Archie because Archie could hit the ball much farther than he, but was seldom able to beat him, because he hit it where he wanted to hit it.

Bookies and Cookies poem
Submitted by familyfunandfaith on Tue, 2006-08-15 01:30

I tried reach my bookie
to get a big bet booked.
While waiting I ate a cookie,
that last night I had cooked.
As I waited I began to squirm
and my tummy became squeamish,
perhaps that cookie had a germ.
I would like to send it to Venus!

Beach Poem
Submitted by familyfunandfaith on Sat, 2006-08-05 07:52

I like to go down to the sea
where I always feel truly free
under the tropical blue sky,
though I've never known why.
There's a single palm tree
Neath which I love to be.
When the surf's tide is high
I wish the day would never die.

Great words for a poem, believin, too bad my poem isn't!
Submitted by familyfunandfaith on Fri, 2006-08-04 17:01

I see the way
you give me the eye.
but I'll tell you nay;
unless I am high.
It is not how much you weigh,
no room to talk have I.
It was hearing you neigh
that made me settle for "hi".

Poem for our Dog, Buccaneer
Submitted by familyfunandfaith on Fri, 2006-06-02 04:32

I went out to see if he needed help
when I heard our yellow Lab yelp.
He was just trying to earn his keep,
his eager alertness doesn't seep.
No intruder needs ever to try
to invade our home, it's no lie.
He loves to walk beside my knee;
keeping up exercise is a big key
to keeping Buccanner healthy. Still
Sometimes I really lack the zeal.

All the stars in the sky
Submitted by familyfunandfaith on Wed, 2006-05-31 01:27

All the stars in the sky were a glow,
I could hear the nightengale sing
and feel a gentle spring breeze blow.
Our relationship was now more than a fling.
It was more than passions that bubble,
the level of emotions had made a big jump.
No longer would I wander alone in the rubble
or have my confidence lower than a stump.
I bought a ring, a band of bright yellow
and a dozen long stem roses, blood red,
I'm without a doubt the luckiest fellow
who ever breathed, thought, laughed or bled.

This poetry challenge from Veenus was tough!
Submitted by familyfunandfaith on Mon, 2006-05-29 13:08

The doctor's eyes had a glint
as he said, "this one makes it a quint".
I wanted to give my wife a little peck,
but was overcome at the news, and fell to the deck.
When I was recovered I put on a glove
and without any urging, I didn't need a shove,
I held all my babies at once, a new art.
I listened to hear each little heart,
and came aware that mine had begun to pound.
I am going to have to have my feet on the ground
if I am going to have five little ones surround
me with laughs and songs and other sweet sound.

"I Am Glad"
Submitted by familyfunandfaith on Sat, 2006-05-27 18:47

I am glad we don't have to carry gold,
it is much easier with money that'll fold.

I am glad we eat fruit like pomegranate,
it is much easier on the teeth than granite.

I am glad I am not a little ol' gazelle,
cause they can't write poetry very well.

I am glad I am married to my darling,
instead of some loud, sqawking starling.

I am glad I don't live in an iv'ry tower,
where it would be hard to smell a flower.

I am glad no one makes me eat raisins,
cause when I do, my bowel emblazens.

I am glad when I can watch fawns & does
in the early morning, where the creek flows.

I am glad to see a flock of sheep graze,
it makes me hope for more peaceful days!
