I gotta say, you need some Lessons on making puns, because you cant get Something For Nothing. So, let's Start Today. Being the Working Man I am, I won't be able to do it today, so I will schedule it to be on Basttile Day. I'm still Finding My Way to to Xanadu, where the Limelight is most prominite. But, for now I will be in Rivendell, trying to find A Passage To Bangkok, and saying My Farwell To A King with Tears running down my face. Maybe I should slow the puns, because if I go over 2,112 mph, Time will Stand Still. And we don't want that to happen. If I would go that fast, it would be my Little Victorie. I know someone who has done it, their name was Tom Sawyer, and when he did it, he had Vaper Trails, and when Time Stood Still, Mystic Rythems started to play, and the screeching tires of a Red Barrchetta. It was cool, but terrible. The Cinderella Man came, with the Colors Of Right engulfing him. He said to stop going so fast and obey Natural Science, and to be Closer To The Heart. So, I never think of doing it. To keep my mind off of it, I started Moving Pictures. And, after I go into a Dreamline.
