Literary related jovial notions

Apples with blue

The  new house had such  short stories it looked like a  bungalow for  a family  of demons  who had no swine.

My house is rather novel.It has no gravity at all.It suits my sins of humor as I float into the library for an evening browse

The total volume of my husband’s library would be about ten suitcases plus an Oxford Dictionary.Tell God

I booked a cleaner for speeding in the kitchen.She said Cordon my English,dear.I never knew you were the sixth woman.

I do love a chocolate villanelle for  a  dessert.What did I say? Well you spell it,then.

The life of our  current prime minister is of no literary value to poets and that speaks half a volume.

She had no magazines until he brought out his gun.It even had a bulletin.

She likes  romantic novels except they only have one theme.Why don’t they read Euclid before bed. I did and see the effect or should I say ,no affect?

I am reading a critical study of Sylvia Plath’s writing… she did it by hand!So did her husband.that tells a story.Short, of course.They spilled the ink.They had no Ariel then you see.Since then it’s made his fortune…

He just keeps rewriting his narratives and so should we all.Never confess unless you get paid.

Beware of expensive phone numbers

Beware of clothes catalogues asking you for feedback.I bought an item then was asked to give Humor: Discover the Power of Humor in the Universal Virtues | Virtue.netfeedback on the  it via  the phone.Fortunately I hung up after 5 minutes waiting.I say fortunately because looking at my phone bill I see it was expensive.You don’t get charged by Amazon for giving feedback!

Some charities with helplines also charge a high rate which may seem fair if you are getting free advice but it is not always made clear.Now you know why the staff are so chatty!But at least this is for a good cause.

As for questions people ask on Amazon.I have a tiny windows laptop 10 inch screen and hence rarely used.I got a question from someone asking if one could use Word on it.If they are going to use Word a 10inch screen is hardly suitable…I suppose they may have Word  on a bigger one….

Strange facts

Almost all children learn to talk without formal lessons yet it takes several years for them to learn to read and write in school,not to mention the corporal punishment many suffered.

As for arithmetic, not many men have trouble laying a bet nor children knowing how many sweets can be bought for 20 pence…Wall and shrub

Abstract:The limericks

Her manner is rather abstract

It  does not help her to show tact.

She’s in love with ideas

Yet her rents  in arrears.

Let’s hope that her ship is not wrecked.

i saw the abstract for your book.

I’d love a  much closer look.

I’ll invite you  to tea

Then I can see

Just  how discerning you look.

I suppose even Monet is abstract,

For his images with bright  dots are packed.

I love them so well

As they both show and tell

Precisely what realism   lackedFace with color 3
