Please, be seated

Name the most expensive personal item you’ve ever purchased (not your home or car).

A sofa. From a company called SofaSofa. ( Yes, there is a story behind this, but it can wait)

Once again, WP, as my response to today’s  DP is so short and sweet you have given me the luxury of space to write in the words of another. I thank you.

The Common and the Goose

The law locks up the man or woman

Who steals the goose from off the common

But leaves the greater felon loose

Who steals the common from the goose.
