SLED DOGS

Malamute and husky, male and bitch
Can flip a magic switch
When they're several hours out
And then run faster, it turns out,
Than when they started in the sled dog hitch.

MORAY EEL

Helper jaws has the moray eel
In its throat they are concealed.
When it's in the mood
To load up with food
They help the eel a great deal.

SET A GOAL

There's no substitute for
Having a goal to shoot for.
If you improve instead of worsen,
You may become a person
Folks would like to root for.

When in a training plan you enroll,
Set yourself a worthy goal.
Maybe you will break it.
If you do not make it,
Try yourself to console.

Once you've duly set it,
Don't you then forget it.
If somehow you miss it
And goodbye have to kiss it,
I sure won't say "Don't sweat it."

DAILY EXERCISE

Runners know while others maybe don't.
Runners will while others maybe won't.
But everyone would be wise
To daily exercise.
The evidence has, beyond maybe, shown it.

TOYS

There are plenty of adult toys
For well-off girls and boys,
Like motorcycles, ATVs, motorboats and jeeps,
Sailboats and airplanes, costing heaps,
All designed to bring folks joys.

Other toys, too, are trendy,
Which may be less expendy,
Like skis, bikes, skates, bows, clubs and canoes.
Since these take muscle to use,
I find their use commendy.

CHILI COOKOFF

I don't think you should scoff
At Snowshoe's chili cookoff.
If you're fond of chili,
Consume it till you're silly
Ere your bib you doff.

JEEP RALLY

Six score jeeps the tally
At the Snowshoe jeep rally.
Owners will tell their tales
Of driving mountain trails
High above the valley.

SARAH PALIN

With the election three years out,
Sarah, fighting, is coming out,
This gal who hasn't got
A prayer of a shot
And is now a job without.

SPOUSAL ARGUMENTS

To get along we try,
My dear wife and I.
About the important we seldom do,
But about the trivial we often argue,
For we don't see eye-to-eye.
