plains the why of much indigestion
People all made from the pattern but there is
a lot of difference in the workmanship.
Some people making more money accidentally

Some try bending heaven and earth to carry point
Others try raising hell to do it.
You naturally hear lot of fowl language in the barn

Housewives are observant They watch the weighs of
the butcher
Don't throw away your socks, if they worth
