KEEPING ABREAST OF THE SEASON

The Rogue Speaks:

Jenny Matlock's Saturday Centus really has us pecking around this morning, trying to find just the right 100 words for her prompt. This one is a real challenge, but here goes:

"Pardon me," said Mr. Tom T. Urkee, but do you happen to have this in a short?"

"Sorry, sir, but that model only comes in large. Judging from your mid-section, I believe you would take a large. No offense, sir. You'll have to roll the legs up, though. Do you want to try it on?"

"I think I'll take it, but I would like to just wear it home, if that's o.k."

"Certainly, sir. I'm sure you'll be wanting the white beard as well."

"Can't forget THAT item! It makes the look complete, and keeps me safe. Now, do you think I look like Santa Claus?"

Judie, you did it again. I was laughing well before that last line. Now, I'm laughing louder. xo

Enjoyable and uplifting. Keep it up. :)

I love the artwork on here as well, and not to mention the catchy toon playing lol.

Tgoette said...

LOL! Great job, Judie! Loved this! As a Tom myself I am, of course, not in favor of being eaten (though some gentle nibbling is permissible) and applaud any Tom's efforts to thwart being digested. Very creative take on this! :)

You are as creative as a writer as you are as an artist! This was very, very clever, my sister!

Hugs,

Jackie said...

Oh dear goodness, yes the white beard is just perfect :)

My sympathies are all with Tom and his clever disguise. If he survives this Thursday, he'd make a great bell-ringer.

Turkey and Santa. Can't beat it.

Jenny said...

Judie! I love the way you think. I have no idea how you do that, but it's really amazing.

The twists that come from that head of yours are just truly works of art! Whether it is words or paint, you are amazing.

I am Aries. I wrote ripples depicting that!
