Class is on....homework on the board, apples on my desk. Make me laugh, write a poem or link to a current news story with your homework to get a better grade.
Tom Brady and the NE Patriots have had great success with Belichick, but that just makes Roger Goodell more bellicose.
OK, that one caught me off guard. A++++
The Donald, campaigning, seems bellicose
He misses having a New York deli close
He craves his pastrami
With Kosher salami
And chopped liver for his daily dose

He’s owned by #blacklivesmatter. A+++
Growing up, we had a “violence room” in our basement for roughhouse play. It wasn’t a bad idea for us three bellicose young lads.

More like Comatose, morose and on a heavy dose.
There is a distinct absence of bellicosity from the Clinton camp since she was forced to turn her server over to the FBI. The question remains: will they actually do something about it?

They are about 4 miles away from the explosion.
Tioga, I’m surprised at you.
That grading criteria used to be FR’s worst kept secret!
Though Barak H. Obama may boast
The Iran nuclear deal is certainly close
To the biggest mistake
Any president could make
Just listen to the Ayatollah’s words so bellicose.
whoa! that is close!
I am not bellicose, I'm simply getting ready for peace.
Well, yeah, but my point was rather that that was pretty far away to be damaged. Big explosion.
