Hello

[MinuteGal]

Time for a Mother Freep nursery rhyme........

Hillary, Dillary, Dock
She's running up the White House clock
Send FR a C-note or ten
And you'll get her running down again

Now I'm waiting for my hot chocolate and animal crackers.

Leni

[LibLieSlayer]

The check I promised is on it’s way to you. I have to get Mississippi up more than it is in the chart! ;-)

LLS

[LilAngel]

Marshmallows or whipped cream?

[MHGinTN]

KNowin’ you, you’ll probably get smores.

[Knitting A Conundrum]

Bump, bump, bump the thread....

[do the dhue]

[Jim Robinson]

Thank you very much, LibLieSlayer!!

Woo hoo!!

And this just in:

$300 from Alabama
$50 from New Jersey

Thank you Alabama and New Jersey!!

[MinuteGal]

Hey, all you wits out there......I'll donate 5 bucks to FR for each original (and politically-conservative ) Mother Freep nursery rhyme posted. I'll also pick a winner and donate a extra twenty in your name if you score a hit with me.

The rhymes must be conservatively-political, an original parody to a genuine child's Mother Goose verse, fairly literate (after your own fashion, heheh)......and if your creation stinks, I'll tell ya so.

In fact, I may even donate an extra twenty for the WORST Mother Freep nursery rhyme posted.

When I reach my contribution limit, the contest is over.

See my rhyme on # 12 for some inspiration. You'll get the drift.

So, gooses and ganders, start your poetic quacks NOW.

And make sure your own contribution is in the mail before your dog eats it.

Mary, Mary, quite contrary
How do babies grow?
In silver bells with cockle shells
All lined up in a row?

Mummy, Mummy, don't be dummy
That's a lot of schlock
If I told you what they teach grade two
You'd drop dead from the shock

Leni

[MinuteGal]

Make mine Kahlua!

The smores come later after I fall asleep in my crib.

Leni

[MHGinTN]

Now ya made me thirsty.

[LilAngel]

With Kahlua, I think I’ll have to put some whipped cream on top. It’s the rule.

[Jim Robinson]

Woo hoo!! Thank you, MinuteGal!!

WooHoo!! Thread 4! Bump!

God Bless America!

Eagles Up!

See y'all tomorrow.....
Keep On Freepin'...... Have a good evening all.

[MinuteGal]

Animal crackers and cocoa to drink
That is the finest of suppers I think
When I'm grown up and can have what I please
I think I shall always insist upon these

What do YOU choose when you're offered a treat?
When Mother says, "What would you like best to eat?"
Is it waffles and syrup or cinnamon toast?
Nope, it's cocoa with Kahlua that I love the most!

FR is the cosiest place that I know
The posters all posting, the wit is aglow
And here by my fire, how jolly to see
Contributions a'comin' from each nurse-er-y

Now unplug your piggy bank, sit down with your kitten
Empty your loot from the pig and your mitten
Send to this freepathon, don't even wait
Then have your cocoa and Kahlua in state

Dumpy Hillary had a great fall
But all of Bill's chores and all of Bill's henchmen
Wouldn't put Dumpy over the top of him.

"Dumpy Hillary sat on the wall

Thanks for your Mother Freep Nursery Rhyme. It will go into the category of Best Rhymes even though your rhyming took a great fall on that last sentence (groan). Anyway, the thought counts for a lot and you nailed it, LOL.

Rack up a $5 matching donation for the FR coffers.

Way to go MHGinTN! Your Shakespearean effort just earned FR its VERY FIRST Mother Freep contribution!
