    Popsicle: The huge icicle that fell on dad's head last winter...

    Goes:
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    Aftermath: After math comes gym, which, frankly, is a relief after all that thinkin'.

    Pompey, your line about whimsical being like a popsicle, only more capricious, should win you a muffin or something. ;-)

    Actually, PB, if twerking is suggestive of ferking, it would be twucking; but I thought twucking was how goods were moved from warehouse to store shelf across America's highways.
