If we could only save up the extra
hour of sunshine when the sun looks

seems to be diluted these times. and
now they're mixing water with our sun

your last years spring suit.
If it hadn't been for so many leaky
days golf would have been discovered
Ia couple of centuries before 1t was, and
1t wouldn't have been so hard for
Thomas Jefferson and King George to
get excused from the office few after
