"A," you're adorable,
"B," you're so beautiful,
"C," you're a cutie full of charms.
"D," you're a darling and "E," you're exciting
And "F," you're a feather in my arms.
"G," you look good to me,
"H," you're so heavenly,
"I," you're the one I idolize.
"J," we're like Jack and Jill,
"K," you're so kissable,
"L," is the lovelight in your eyes.

"M," "N," "O," "P," I could go on all day.
"Q," "R," "S," "T," alphabetically speaking, you're OK.

U," made my life complete,
"V," means you're very sweet,
Double-"U" "X" "Y" "Zee."
It's fun to wander through the alphabet with you
To tell you what you mean to me.
It is alot like sex,
Some people just don't get it

I prefer smooth peanut butter to chunky. Whereas when I was a kid, it was the other way around.

If you are going about the placing of your statement with the pretense of expecting an answer in it's regards, then there was definately a preamble of the said statement in your head already.

Not random at all my friend...shame on you................... :)

The Bozo are a West African ethnic group located predominantly along the Niger River in Mali. The name Bozo is thought to derive from Bambara bo-so, 'Bamboo house'; the people accept it as referring to the whole of the ethnic group but use more specific clan names such as Sorogoye, Hain, and Tieye themselves. They are famous for their fishing and are occasionally referred to as the "masters of the river." Their languages, belonging to the Soninke-Bozo subgroup of Northwestern Mande languages, have traditionally been considered dialects of one language, though in reality there are at least four distinct varieties (see Bozo languages).

Rock drawings linked to the Bozo date back as far as 6,000 years, but many aspects of their current culture took shape under the 10th century Ghana Empire, when the Bozo took possession of the banks of the Niger. The Bozo were the founders of the Malian cities of Djenné and Mopti.

Though the Bozo are overwhelmingly Muslim, they preserve a number of animist traditions as well. Their animal totem is the bull, whose body represents the Niger and whose horns represent the Bozo fishing pirogues.

A 2000 census counted the Bozo population of Mali to be 132,100.

I missed the booger dance last winter.
Now the crops are flooding.
There are nearly twice the usual number of tornadoes for the year.
I hear the ravens calling at night.
It`s on me.
If it weren`t for my standing with the elders something probably
would have gotten me by now.
Sweet earth mother I`m sorry.

Sometime dreams come true
Other times it is reality
On more rare occasions
Others walk in the wake of our dreams
It is alot like sex,
Some people just don't get it
