The Spa was a wildly popular haven,
ReplyDeleteRecommended by many a portly maven!
It catered to the conceded fatties
To massage self-image, not their fannies!
They were served eclairs and cremes,
To foster the most pleasant of dreams!
Taught that it wasn't sinful to be eating,
Diets were just for the thrill of cheating!
The full-figured person, woman or man,
Shouldn't be judged by belly nor can!
Bodies weren't meant to be flatly fashioned,
To deny it, all at The Spa were impassioned!
The Spa sounds like a very dangerous place, Owen. So glad it's a product of your imagination. That is, I certainly hope it's not based on any reality.
ReplyDeleteThe jumble clues were easy, but I did temporarily go down a dead end trying to decide what to do with another "y" in the solution. Once that was solved, the pun popped out to give me a little chuckle.
Well, I got all four words in this morning's Jumble, but struggled with the solution and finally looked it up. It turns out that I forgot to put the second Y in my list of letters, and that's what made the solution hard since it gave me too few vowels, in a sense. But still a fun Jumble.
ReplyDeleteWish I could read what the sign above the fence says--any ideas, anybody? And what's on the plate the protester is holding? Okay, and what about the words and picture on the guy's white T shirt at the bottom? Guess I get caught up in the visual as much as in the verbal parts of Jumbles.
Misty, I checked several jumble sites and the sign on the fence says "Speakers' Corner". I think the speaker is holding a flat map of the world. I can't read the t-shirt at all, though.
