Sue and Hugh

Once again, Saturday is upon us, and with the arrival of the anticipated weekend, comes another opportunity to explore our creative writing wherewithal with the weekly meme, Saturday Centus. It is brought to us by the illustrious Ms Jenny Matlock, a quite accomplished writer indeed. SC provides a prompt, given this week by Miss Ames. This week's prompt is "It was growing bigger by the minute..."

WARNING!! My offering this week may be a bit beyond our normal PG rating (not much mind you). If this be bothersome, please do not venture beyond this point. It does prove that I have versatility beyond my normal uplifting, 'feel good' offerings. So without further ado, and hopefully not risking my good standing in the class, here we go. Oh, and BTW, for those word counters, I have managed this in under 100 words.

There was once a lusty cowgirl from Stinnett called Sue,
Whose bestest beau was a strapping cowboy named Hugh.
Hugh and Sue's life on the range was great, even grand,
Until that day when Hugh couldn't meet Sues,ummm, sexual demand.
Not meaning to be callous, Sue ordered some Cialis from Dallas,
Which, as we know, could cure Hugh's problematic phallus.
The package of Cialis was promptly shipped from Dallas to Stinnett.
They opened the bottle and Hugh took the pill that was in it,
And to their amazement,it was growing bigger by the minute.

  3. I guess we can expect a little "dirty ditty" from a "mudbug" every so often! Silly!

  4. Hahaha! Jeff, if anyone can get away with this, it is certainly you. I did have to get a magnifier to read it, though. I can tell that you ARE feeling better.

  5. Jeff, I'm applauding your efforts. This was so much fun. Hey, Ames and Jenny asked for it - too-with that prompt. You just worked with it very, very well.
    Thanks for the laughs.

  6. Loved it! (though I nearly had to put my glasses on to read the tiny font.)

    Someone had to go down that route with that prompt didn't they? It was just asking for it. (as was Sue by all accounts.)LOL

    Very good. ;-)

  18. Jeff! You crack me up! But we already e-mailed about this!

    Love the way you walked right up to the edge of PG13 and teetered almost (just almost mind you!) over the edge!

    You rocked this prompt.
