Terry. If it was a rattlesnake he could find himself riding in a dilemma when at a trot or driving over cobblestones.
Marian. It all depends who's viewing and methinks such rose by any other name... and; tattoos are good value. They carry a lifetime guarantee.
John. Did he make a sticky transfer and sit on it or paint from a mirror image?

John those are not the words I knew!
There was a Man from Australia
Who painted his A--- like a Dhalia
The Colour was right the Design very bright
But the smell was a complete failure.
But then all these sorts of saying have different wordings!
