Who said that cruise ships were a menace.
“They offload and eat,
Then splash with bare feet --
Why don’t they go visit Vincennes?

Who thought it exceedingly odd,
That krill should decrease
Which led to the cease
Of fishes and shrimp -- run roughshod.


WEIGHT WATCHERS SEES MEMBERSHIP DECLINE FOR THIRD STRAIGHT YEAR

I'm fat and I don't care at all.
Should I be morose and then bawl
Ifmywaistlinegrows
Like some Hothouse Rose?
Shutup and pass me a meatball.



LOCAVORES MAKE FREEDOM, MAINE, NEW SHRINE TO FINE DINING

Oh, for a meal by a cook
Who never looks into a book --
But has intuition
About the nutrition

Of local caught trout from the brook!
