A Gecko Pooped In My Eye, I'm Not Kidding; A True Story in a Song!
By Kathy Ostman-Magnusen
I wrote this little song... about a gecko pooping in my eye... true story!!
In Hawaii where I live, it is nothing to have a gecko in your house. They are wonderful little mosquito eaters so I just look at them as little pets. I know this is really hard to imagine without living in the tropics. I totally understand, I am after all a California girl originally. Once you get used to it though their little chirps at night are really cute. So you see now why and how I could find myself in a situation of watching TV, looking up towards the ceiling and... plop! It stung... just in case you were wondering!
"Gecko Song"
1)
Gecko gecko on the ceiling
waiting for that special feeling.
Turned his head and he smiled at me
as I lied down and watched TV.
Then he gave a little sigh
as he dropped his do do in my eye.
Chorus:
Isn't that the way things go (2 times)
2)
I watched a man walk past my window
head turned down
he was on the go.
He never looked up
to view the sky
but he'll never know do do
in his eye.
He'd say,
Chorus:
Isn't that the way things go (2 times)
Heads up, stand up, get in line
move out, get out, watch the signs.
If you move through life
and ignore the view
you'll never know
what geckos do
Say now,
Chorus:
Isn't that the way things go (2 times)

Her husband, a self taught artist, had tried several ways of marketing his artwork, all to no avail. He took part in several art-shows and even has a personal art website, all with little success. The woman ended off by asking me if I knew of a list of art buyers. I replied and told her that such a list probably doesn't exist (except for the government and some museums and galleries), and even if it did, it wouldn’t be very beneficial. Art buyers have diverse tastes, and have their own sets of likes and dislikes. It may be very difficult selling pottery to someone who prefers abstract painting. What an artist needs is to find people .. [Click to continue]
Political Jokes Topped in Florida - Politician Humor Political Jokes Topped in Florida The great humorist Will Rogers had the right outlook on politics: “There is nothing wrong with a political joke as long as he doesn’t get elected.” He said, “Politics has got so expensive that it takes a lot of money to even get beat with.” Humor has always been part of American politics. Perhaps this is a legacy of our Revolution -- to keep our leaders from taking themselves too seriously. The current presidential campaign is rather grim. A litany of clever putdowns by late-night comedians. Nothing memorable – as this is written one week from showdown. This is slim pickings for the most expensive campaign in U.S. history. Ea ..
