Hip, Hip - O' (that hurts)


Be Very Careful who You Call a "Hippo"crite
because they may take offense and "sit" on you.

Or "Watch that tongue."

Looks like one of my sons when they were teenagers at an, “All you can eat,” restaurant.

I hope they don’t read this. Grump would be in real trouble.

Ha! The picture is great, but what you said is so true.

"OUCH"! I hope I can keep my tongue from saying such things. I don't like being sat on. :)

Ouch is right! Even the smallest "hippo" would hurt!
Better keep that tongue from wagging!

LOL! This reminded me of a song I wrote while at JCM. Lanny Wolfe required for it to be written in a certain style which demanded a play on words. My song was titled "No Hippos in Heaven". hee hee It of course was a play on the word hypocrite.

Love your pic! :)

Helen,
Your title fits the picture perfectly.

Mervi,
Oh the ways, we sometimes remember our children when they were youngsters.

Kathy,
Unfortunately, the words are too true.

Ronda,
If someone would sit on me once in awhile, I might learn to keep my mouth shut.

Catherine,
I was intrigued by the size of the hippo's mouth. It seems to make it all the more important not to name call.

Shannon,
That is such a good story. Wish you would have given us a few lines of the song.

Looks like that hippo is yelling 'hey have you heard the latest?"

Jolene,
Good thought. All I can say is, Lord don't let me have a BIG mouth that's filled with hateful words of untruth.
