There once was a college tour guide, Whose zipper decided to slide. So sad she didn't know, Until the very end of her show, And the whole group saw her pants open wide! Sorry but I just could not resist. I will not let your identity out of the barn (door that is).

Now mind you, I had a pool out in the yard so there was no reason for me to think that the only way I could go swimming was in the tub. But for some reason I thought if I could do it outside, why not right here right now. Needless to say, instead of a gold medal, I received a large Grade A Jumbo egg to the top o
