Young Again This Season
The chill'ns learn from football— school, homework, sign-up day in Fall. The jerseys, the shoulder pads, the hel...— a team! Minds rushing around the corner, but summertime stales, roll call gleamed... Offensive/Defensive youngsters who loved the memory, builds a trophy, a valuable lesson... be steel.

Logbook Of A Reluctant Dog-Sitter
I tricked my mom to watch the pup, then kicked my feet and sat right up. But soon she shooed me to the yard— "Go get some sun, you’re pale as lard!" The pup chased bu with boundless cheer, while Mom snoozed in her lawn chair near. Then—aha!—he saw his chance arise, with twinkling paws and scheming eyes. He dug up pots with reckless speed, a tiny, furry whirlwind breed! Till yip He found his buried prize— a bone! (Mom woke—oh, what surprise!) I fled before her scolding came, while pup just wagged (no hint of shame). Now dirt’s flung high and pots askew… Who knew a dog could landscape too?
