Don't Be Caught Short!


Buy Yours Today!

A Silly Song and a Half!


Jack and Jill
Start up a hill
But stop at the house that Jack built.
There was a mouse
That hid in the house,
Which terrified Jill,
Who took to the hill—
For Jill was, all-in-all, a responsible girl and she stayed mindful of her commission—
namely fetching a pail of water.
Back at the house,
Still hiding the mouse,
Jack set out to jail
The pest in a pail;
And Jack—
Adept at catching mice, cats, dogs, mammals of all kinds, really—
Looked high and low and caught her.

More Silly Songs, You Say?

Red Riding Hood goes on a spree;
Granny ends bad as can be.
She starts off scarcely ill, then
CRUNCH! CRUCH!
She's landfill.
Red Hood's tale ain't her cup of tea.
