Sir Swellimpedeedoo Says “I Do”

Whatever became of Sir Swellimpedeedoo?
He traded his trousers for a bowl of stew,
He knighted a snail,
Rode off on its trail,
And married a hen he thought was a shoe.

He didn’t consult the Duke of Baloney,
Nor did he ask permission from his pet pony,
This much is true!
He built himself a castle of macaroni,
And declared every Tuesday to be “Opposite Day-oni.”

        1. Of course you know I’m joking; I know my strong points and my weak ones very well by now. One thing I have always struggled with is technology. I’m a speed typist who never looks at the keys but it took me a while to become comfortable with WP and sometimes something will still throw me off. I generally need to be walked through most things computer-oriented; some I get easily, others float around for a while before they settle in and others never settle in. C’est la vie. I have had no luck figuring out how to make a recording on my Mac until today, and I didn’t suddenly wake up with an epiphany. I asked ChatGPT how to do it and I was given detailed and easy instructions for making a recording on Suno. So, good for me for thinking of asking CGPT and good for this incredible AI technology we have that can and does do so much good at the right time and in the right hands. Thanks for your support and encouragement, Clive. ☺️
