Oh the places you'll go...

[jack_babalon]

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own.
And you know what you know.
And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go.

You won’t lag behind, because you’ll have the speed.
You’ll pass the whole gang and you’ll soon take the lead.
Wherever you fly, you’ll be the best of the best.
Wherever you go, you will top all the rest.
I'm sorry to say so
But, sadly it's true
That bang-ups and hang-ups
Can happen to you.

On and on you will hike, And I know you’ll hike far
and face up to your problems whatever they are.
You’ll get mixed up of course, as you already know.
You’ll get mixed up with many strange birds as you go.

So be sure when you step.
Step with care and great tact
And remember that Life’s a great balancing act.

Just never forget to be dexterous and deft.
And never mix up your right foot with your left.

Will you succeed?
Yes you will indeed!
(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)
~Dr.Seuss, Oh the places you'll go

the second pic made me go 'heh'.
the fourth pic made me go 'wow'.

The fourth one made me wonder why she's not just using that perfectly good starship.... it'd be a lot more sturdy.

But yeah, the second one is awesome. Looks like it's from a film?

the starship may be sturdy, but the spaceman is... wiggly. ;-)

Now if I could just combine the 2nd and the 4th for one big 'your-peanut-butter-is-in-my-chocolate' moment I'd have a hit story on my hands.

Ha!

I'm curious what the rhyme scheme would be throughout Dr. Seuss' "What the fuck is this shit?"

Poor Sam-I-Am, had the FDA shut down his green-themed breakfast diner.

I was picturing "Howl" and the eggs+ham original remixed.

I am Sam, Sam the beat
At dawn I crawl the negro street
Do you want to meet some freaks?
Would you like an angry fix?
Are you frightened of the void?
Would you like your mind destroyed?

I do not get it Sam , the Beat
What the fuck is this shit?

I'm 'starved, hysterical, naked' for more Sam the Beat:)

Thanks. I had that poem stuck in my head last night for some reason.

Not tags this time, maybe somewhere between 'geek' and 'dirty' I suppose but really neither. Next Thursday open for you btw?

I wrote this when Dr. Seuss croaked (I was working in Japan at the time):

Very nice and a bit of rollicking fun writing it by the sound of it. Who knew you were a "doctor" before you were an "El-Tee".

Well, detail you probably don't need or want - when I was working in Japan we produced an occasional newspaper for which I wrote odd funny articles. I created the character of "Dr. Trash", the gomi no sensei who could make something out of anything else.
