Story 167

Her Hospital Stint

As the runners started their sprint, Rwanda slipped and fell. Her

broken leg had to be set in a splint.

Friends brought her candy, flowers, and mint. And there in the

hospital, during her long recovery stint, by dint of hard work she

learned how to perfectly print.

Story 168

On an Ocean Trip

On a fun trip, they zipped along at a fast clip, while porpoises below

would do acrobatic flips.

Their ship had a pool in which swimmers would take an occasional dip;

but mostly the passengers would sit around eating potato chips with

various dips.

Aboard ship was a peculiar man named Skip, who made everyone laugh

with one after another quip. Evidently, though, he had lost his grip: he

wore a woman's see-through slip, and he lit cigars with ten-dollar scrip.

What’s more, he called his liquor bill a gyp,

then refused to give his waiter a proper tip.
