Story 153

Poor Biff

At the start of their camping trip Sue and Biff got into a tiff: she
blamed everything on blameless Biff.

She complained of a skunk whiff, the cold air that made her nose

sniff, and their climb up a cliff that made her back stiff.

So for the rest of their trip, Biff had to bear her peevish miff.

Story 154

she'd like a slip or a shift. Either gift should give their re•la•tion•ship a swift

and hefty lift.
