Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for November 10, 2024

People who DO see her will immediately run home and throw their liquor away—just like in great old animated cartoons.

That wouldn’t get a second look in ’Frisco.

She looks like Its. Sister

Oh Broomie, I liked the Blues Brothers look much more. It really looked cool.

Had Gaylord made the suggestion I’d have known it was sarcastic. Irwin might actually think this will work.

From the frying pan into the fire?

There isn’t a month goes by that someone doesn’t tell me that my John Lennon circular sunglasses are cool; but they are 40 years old, and I’ve repaired them three times. Why does no-one make them any more?

Seriously?

Greetings! Broom Hilda the Witch here and today I’d like to tell you a little bit about the color green. Do you know what’s green? Well I am for one thing. You see witches are green, and I’m a witch, and that means I’m green. You see?

[Verse 1]

It’s not that easy bein’ green

Having to spend each day

The color of the leaves

When I think it could be nicer

Bein’ red or yellow or gold

Or something much more colorful like that

It’s not easy bein’ green

It seems you blend in

With so many other ordinary things

And people tend to pass you over

‘Cause you’re not standing out

Like flashy sparkles in the water

Or stars in the sky

[Bridge]

But green’s the color of spring

And green can be cool and friendlylike

And green can be big like an ocean

Or important like a mountain

Or tall like a tree

See upcoming pop shows

Get tickets for your favorite artists

[Verse 2]

When green is all there is to be

It could make you wonder why

But, why wonder? Why wonder?

I’m green and it’ll do fine

It’s beautiful, and I think it’s what I want to be

I’m sure no one will notice you that way.

By the way, that should be 3 feet ‘short’.

You may get noticed, but no one will say anything!

Thank You! It’s not often I actually laugh at things on this site. The gods know these days it’s not easy to find something to laugh about.
