A glad lad had a sad dad; a glass flag in a flask. A jag lags.
Quality is the issue. See how it looks. Kill the goats. Plug the gap. Your red jaguar is parked here. Look where the flag flies. Apply yourself to the hard task ahead. Safety first. Error prone folks rue the day. Raise it with the Yorkshire people. Whatever Ulster people say is OK. If you ask for it you will get it.
Xmas comes once a year. Make it a very happy one. Go in a blaze of glory. Can it be true? Value your time in this world. Do not be lazy; make maximum use of it Zack. Blaming everyone else is not a good idea in the long run.
