TODAY's SPANKING NEW POEM -
Sick as a parrot
Worked like a dog
Float like a butterfly
Will croak like a frog!
Stubborn as a mule
Sting like a bee
Brave like a lion
Like a bat,
I can’t see
As mad as a fish
Sly as a fox
Slow as a sloth
Wake with the cocks
Burn like a tiger
Free as a bird
Wise as an owl
Head of the herd
Eager as a beaver
Churchmouse poor
Drunk as a skunk
I’m a raging boar

One Durham, North Carolina tortoise, has left his competition in the dust by being crowned the fastest the world has ever seen.
Bertie, the speedy tortoise, runs at a speed of about 0.6 miles per hour. This means that he is twice as fast as the average tortoise, and can finish a 100m race in just six minutes.
Although he may not be competing with Usain Bolt anytime soon, Bertie lives contentedly in his "luxury enclosure with his girlfriend Shelly" where he enjoys his favorite snack—strawberries.
WORD - Word of the day: TARTLE (Scots) - the awkward hesitation when you're introducing someone and you've forgotten their name
