So I went food shopping the other day,
Got my stuff and then went up to pay.
Afterwards I thot my total seemed high,
But I didn’t even bother to ask ‘em why.
Now later in the day it bothered me still,
Yet I did not look at that expensive bill.
Then during the night as I lay in my bed,
Thoughts of that total yet filled my head.
So I got out of bed and went to the trash,
To find out what happened to my cash.
I got the receipt & examined each thing,
Man oh man, it just didn’t make me sing!
Hershey’s kisses are my pleasure in life,
But why so more expensive than a wife?
Let me tell you dude, it just really sucks,
It was a two-pound bag for twenty bucks!
When I saw it I nearly went thru the roof,
Now how can I satisfy my sweet tooth?
I don’t shop often so well I bought three,
As you can imagine, I am feeling misery.
At this point I am not certain what to do,
Are my kisses eating days sadly through?
I deserve to have my one sweet pleasure,
Even if I truly spend beyond my measure.
I am an old man, my days are soon done,
So I’ll just keep on having my kisses fun.

Aside from serving as an interesting educational tool, the purpose of my “Guam Tropical Storm and Typhoon Warnings, Watches and Updates” page is to keep my online friends informed of my status here on Guam, in the event that a storm threatens or strikes us. After all, it will directly affect whether or not I can share my work in the various social networks in which I currently participate. If our region is threatened by a strong typhoon — or what mainland Americans refer to as hurricanes — I will update the page. To access the page directly, please click or tap on the link below.

“Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.” Matthew 10:34-38, KJV
“Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Mark 13:12-13, KJV
“Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division: For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three. The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.” Luke 12:51-53, KJV
