Bungee Jumping!

One day Joe woke up on a Saturday. Suddenly, he was obsessed with bungee jumping.

“Bunnnggee juummmpinnngg!!!!!” he yelled as he jumped out of bed. “Mom! DO WE HAVE A BUNGEE CORD?!?!”

“No, we don’t,” Ms. Frankfur answered.

Then he went downstairs to eat. Bill, Joe’s baby brother, was crying and throwing food at Ms. Frankfur, and it got worse when Joe ran into the dining room yelling, “Bungee jumping!” That made the situation worse. It startled Ms. Frankfur into flinging baby food into Bill’s face, making him SCREAM and throw a fit.

“Oops,” Joe whispered. He grabbed his bacon and eggs. “I’m going upstairs.”

Then he ran upstairs, fearing the chaos behind him.

“Since when did you become OBSESSED with BUNGEE JUMPING?” Joe’s sister, Abby asked.

“I had a dream about how great bungee jumping is,” Joe stated. “I’m going to the store after breakfast.”

Then he was grounded for life, not being able to own a bungee cord. THAT made him return to normal.

Until the next day . . .

“GRAFFITI!”

Oh, and Joe never went to the store.

Random Rhyming Poem

Things with wings fly around and lie on the ground. Dogs play with logs while snakes bake a cake, making a drake and eating a chicken in the kitchen. A cat wears a hat, standing on a mat, tackling a bat. A fellow asks a fellow, “Where is my mellow?”

“Please don’t ask me that again or I’ll bellow,” he answered. Then Fellow 1 turned into a punter and punted him on the spot and tied the pants into a knot.

When they saw the snake baking a cake, making a drake and eating chicken in the kitchen, they fled and ran. Now I can stop rhyming.
