Friday Fun Day - Crambo aka Bouts Rimés - Scooting

Bouts Rimés means "rhymed ends" in French and is a game or challenge where one person (me) makes a list of rhymed words and others (you) write the lines that end with those rhymes, in the same order in which they were given. It was known as Crambo in English and was quite popular in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Will you help me bring back this hip historical habit?

Above are the words.

Get writing rhyme nerds!

 

There will be no winner. This is just for fun

and the joy of spreading smiles somewhere to someone.

Trippy Transportation

My friend Jim got me thinking about transportation;

the wondrously weird ways we've gotten 'round in this nation.

I discovered this top ten list that will likely astound you.

In fact, there are a few that might actually dumbfound you.

I applaud them all for their bold expression of creativity

and boldly driving their crazy crafts where all the world can see.

I'm sharing this rhyme in Holes in My Soles's Magnificent Monday

and also with the group that enjoys You Tube Tuesday fun day.

Josh from "Its Tiger Time" invented You Tube Tuesday so we could each share one video a week which we found to be fun, inspiring or otherwise noteworthy.  If you choose to participate, don't forget to leave your links in my comments section (so I can come visit you) and on Josh's page (so you can be part of the contest).
