"Oh gosh" she thought to herself while listening to her husband's hideous poem. "I think I've made a mistake." She walks over to her husband and gives him a loving hug and kiss.

Hamstak, you *should* be deeply proud of that verse.

BTW, Ben and Jerry's came out with "Schweddy Balls" ice cream flavor a few years back. Many supermarkets refused to carry it. LOL!
