Hi Pen,
Blue is getting on a bit and he doesn’t perform as well as he used to. On his birthday, he received a gift certificate from Sheila. The certificate paid for a visit to a herbalist who was rumoured to have a wonderful cure for erectile dysfunction.
After being persuaded, Blue took his gift certificate to the herbalist who handed a potion to him, and with a grip on his shoulder warned,“
This is a powerful medicine. You take only a teaspoonful and then say '1-2-3. When you do, you will become more manly than you have ever been in your life, and you can perform as long as you want.”
Blue asked,"
How do I stop the medicine from working?"
"
Your partner must say '1-2-3-4,” the herbalist responded, “
but when she does, the medicine will not work again for another month."
Blue was very eager to see if it worked, so he went home, showered, shaved, took a spoonful of the medicine, and then invited Sheila to join him in the bedroom. When she came in, he took off his clothes and said, "
1-2-3!" Immediately, he was the manliest of men.
Sheila was excited and began throwing off her clothes, and then she asked, "
What was the 1-2-3 for?"
And that, forumites, is why we should never end our sentences with a preposition because we could end up with a dangling participle.
When you’re on a good thing, stick to it. The object of my rebus is another display in the British Museum.
