Where have all the Thin Mints gone?

Thin Mints
Girl Scouts
Where have all the thin mints gone?
Too soon paaaasssing.
Where have all the thin mints gone?
Just weeks ago.

I bought armfuls of these delights,
Put them in my freezer
They were out of sight.
But I ate them anyway,

One, two, three, eeeevery day.

Now those green boxes are all gone.
Girl Scouts tricked me with this treat.
They smiled at me, I took the bait.
When will I ever learn?

When will I eeever learn?

Next year I'll do something else.
I'll back up the car, open the trunk.
"Load those green boxes, girls, 
Fill up the car, and here's the cash!" 

Here is the cash.

I think then I will learn,
I'll freeze then in the freezer
And lock it tight.
I will looooock it tight.

Looooock it tight?


It is Girl Scout Cookie Season!

Sing this to "Where have all the flowers gone?"  Forgive the meter, forget the rhyme.  I have a few thin mints left, but I won't tell you where.

Virtue Limited

A flannel-soft night erased frayed edges of day, leaving Evangeline to contemplate how her virtuous life revealed her inching towards the end of life.
 
All the luxuries I have denied myself…all the delights of the flesh…

Gazing out at the black sky, at the donuts of stars several life times removed, Evangeline considered her life to be a multiple of cartoons played out in black and white.

Damn.  She considered, grabbing the car keys and the big wad of cash from under the mattress.  I’m going to ‘Vegas.


Virtue has its limits.

"Donuts" and "cartoons' were out there, Delores!!
