Hey, let’s talk about how infantile thumbs are, again.

flogging a thumb

diogenes pointing and laughing
at all that plato said
ole bill shakespeare was writing
the nonsense that floated thru his head
nostradamus warned us clearly
of the things that we should dread
and jesus giving us direction
that the children must be fed
all these voices and more
wrote stuff that ought to be read
to avoid the damn insanity
of thumbs both green and red

The hitchhikers guide to the thumb
Stick it out and you might make a chum
Be it red be it green
Just make sure its seen
Or you'll end up comfortably numb.

flogging that horse

as i listen to my collection of songs from blues artists i began to wonder how many times sonny boy williamson's song, "good morning, school girl" had been covered

i thought surely it had to be thousands

as it turns out, its not even close to the most covered song of all time
that honor, according to wikipedia, is the beatles song, "yesterday", followed closely by "fool on the hill" and "rocky raccoon"

Rookie, you sure hit the thumb on the head with that one.

That horse isn't dead though.
That ship has come off the rails.

I’d alert your post, but someone sabotaged the feature.

Even more so, Regrexit, The anti-Waterloo sentiment: they feel like they lose because they won.
