What office supply do you feel most akin to?

It's your funeral, they are lowering you down, what's your "swan song"?

Name the first animal you see right now.

Ooh, ooh, ooh (raising hand) may i please change my poem????

I'd like to add this one....from beastly boys and ghastly girls....one of my faves from childhood.

Nothing to do, Nothing to do
Put some mustard in your shoe
Fill your pockets full of soot
Drive a nail into your foot
Put some sugar in your hair
Place your toys upon the stair
Smear some jelly on the latch
Eat some mud and strike a match
Draw a picture on the wall
Roll some marble down the hall
Pour some ink in daddy's cap
Now go upstairs and take a nap
