Story 93
We Depend on Mom

There are many affairs to which mother has to attend, because she

has many children for whom to fend. In the day, she works in a big

store in South Bend. Her job is to vend clothes of the fashionable

trend. And some nights she must bartend.

When she returns home, she has to spend time with each child who

wants to bend her ear. She also has to mend socks, perhaps send a

letter, and always lend a hand to fix a meal.

Thanks to Mom, who is our bestest friend, and whom we highly

commend, we all should ascend to great heights in the end.

Story 94
Pent up

Once upon a time in the city of Trent, there lived an
elderly gent by the name of Ghent. Being pent up in a

penthouse, Mr. Ghent became discontent. So, one day he

sent his final payment to the resident manager, Mrs.Kent.

Included was a note in which he said he had no intent to
pay the next month's sky-high rent, and soon to expect

his descent, by which he meant good-bye Mrs. Kent!

So, Mr. Ghent, who always had the bent to live in
wilderness wonderment, went off into the woods, where

his final days were spent quite content, sniffing animal

scent, living in a pup tent.

Change: cuntent for content.
