“Strictly Germ-Proof”
by Arthur Guiterman
The Antiseptic Baby and the Prophylactic Pup
Were playing in the garden when a Bunny gamboled up;
They looked upon the Creature with a loathing undisguised; -
It wasn’t Disinfected and it wasn’t Sterilized.
They said it was a Microbe and a Hotbed of Disease;
They steamed it in a vapor of a thousand-odd degrees;
They froze it in a freezer that was cold as Banished Hope
and washed it in permanganate and carbolated soap.
In sulphurated hydrogen they steeped its wiggly ears;
They trimmed its frisky whiskers with a pair of hard-boiled shears;
They donned their rubber mittens and they took it by the hand
and ‘lected him a member of the Fumigated Band.
There’s not a Micrococcus in the garden where they play;
They bathe in pure iodoform a dozen times a day;
And each imbibes his daily rations from a Hygienic Cup -
The Bunny and the Baby and the Prophylactic Pup.

LOL @ “Are you scrubbing dubbing your blogs all clean?” I think I have mine “all cleaned up”, but I have got to get my husband to check it. Feels good to do a bit of “spring cleaning”. =-)

I like a good clean up!

Oh dear!
My blogs always get kicked out when networks do this.

99% done, and wow, that was a lot of work! But worth it, my blogs are loading much faster, my traffic is up, and visitors are staying longer.

Just a few more days and then I can finally get mine all clean
February 27th, 2009 at 3:53 pm
I’m workin’ on it! It’s a daunting task, to be sure, but I’m gettin’ it done!!
