Well you know if you put baloney in one of the George Forman Grills it won;t curl up.

And now Karen, here you go:

The next time around
My heart will be beating in my own chest.
And not out on my sleeve,
Pine-ing away.

I will own myself, all of me,
I will not take it for granted.
No infatuation, no angst.
Plain and simple,
Like drawing a breath.

I will carry no baggage,
Expect only recognition.
Cutting myself enough slack
To hear what my heart tells me.
Yes, he is the one.

And he will recognize me,
Because I will be no one else.
There out of the tunnel,
Standing in the light of day,
My hat in my hand,
And and smile on my face.

that is nice, Truman. I like that part about keeping your heart but still being open.

Loved your poem, Tru!

Always keep that smile on your face...you never know who is falling for it.

Treet Meat is a poor substitute for Spam.

I remember Treet. It is a poor substitute for Spam.

Do you like Spamalot?? 

Not I. I don't care for the Monty Python type of British humor. Ben Jonson, Oscar Wilde, fine. Keeping up Appearances, Are You Being Served?, wonderful. As Time Goes By, sweet. Monty Python just leaves me cold. And don't get me started on Benny Hill. ...

Well you know if you put baloney in one of the George Forman Grills it won;t curl up.

If you cut little slices in the edge, it won't curl up in a frying pan, either. I know this from experience.

Some guy on Fox news this morning was talking about deep fried spam...oy

Do you like Spamalot?? 

I haven't seen it yet, but everyone has spoken very highly of it.  I will see it my next trip to NYC.
I like the British humor.
