Aunt Vickie, The Cricket & Two Pranksters
A friendship developed across the miles
Because of the internet, two blogs and some smiles
Netters and Mare quickly hit it off
Two pranksters whose paths should never have crossed
And then came some crickets of the salt & vinegar kind
Everyone yelled "Gross!!" but Mare thought they tasted just fine
To put it all on YouTube, Marianne had a hunch
Little did anyone know Aunt Vickie would lose her lunch
Feeding on the feast that was Aunt Vickie's demise
Mare & Netters put heads together and the two of them got wise
An iron cricket on a post at a yard sale for half a dollar
What better way to make dear Aunt Vickie hollar
Shipped from Texas to Nebrasky with lots of love
And a little help from the prankster gods above
A yard ornament and a memory that will never be lost
By two pranksters whose paths should never have crossed.

Perfecto!!!!
I wonder how long it took her to notice it once she got back.
I thought it was funny. I still have it in the yard. The neighbor girl thats 3 keeps asking why I have a bug in my yard. I noticed it Sunday mourning when we went out and checked the lawn and the garden out . We didn't get home until 11:30 Saturday nite. Unloaded the jeep & jet ski and went to bed. Seems like I haven't stoped since we been home a good thing that it was such a relaxing vacation. I wan't to move their but I can't be that far from Arianna. That was the hardest thing not seeing her for that many days. Oh and Maranne thanks for the token of friendship. But if you keep in contact with Netter to long you do become as bad as her. I quess thats ok.
You know, I found that cricket at a garage sale for fifty cents.
It's true that one man's junk is another man's treasure.
I hope you treasure the yard ornament. It was all done in fun.
