I'll be on here rarely for the next couple of weeks. (Let the rejoicing begin.) I'm taking a vacation and doing a 3000 mile road trip. I'll be back though... Just giving fair warning.
Enjoy the drive (ride?) and come back in one piece.
Have fun! I did a cross-country trip last year. Wish I could again!
Where are you going?
sounds like an adventure. hopefully you will bring Tales home.
Tales of tail, perhaps?
@hankster
Ah! But such a tale could @Duke relate
A tale of tail, and not stale-mate.
A piece so fine I tell thee,
Yea! A mounting to the finest "lay"
Of loving labour, toiling "hard"
That ever "came" upon that bard,
Recounting with "upstanding pride",
That wondrous night .... etc.
The above is adapted from a long, bawdy ballad I once wrote upon a portable typewriter by the light of a burning oil refinery, after rebels had blown up the power station and were now attacking the oil refinery. I was also consuming the contents of a small barrel of French wine, to prevent it falling into the hands of the enemy.
