Question: So, Reenie, how is your dust cloth holding up!?
(a light dusting for my muse Reenie who mentioned dust yesterday!)
Dust
Dust, the vilest bane of clean man
but gold for cleaning crews!
A wonderful metaphor too,
to describe our demise!.
While sneezing dust we ponder dust
Dust of ages, dusty tomes…
As those dirt devils dustily
dance, the dust two step live!
We filter dust, ionize the dust!
We sweep dust, even wash dust,
and with white gloves and dust rags, dust!
New morning… new dusting!
So dust your house and dust it more!.
Fret, stress… buy all the toys!.
But in the end dust’s the winner
till your coffin’s lid sealed!

AAAAHHHH!!! There is no escape!
I am the one trying to prove the theory that dust is a furniture protectant, but only at my house, otherwise I'd be unemployed!
On that note, I better get moving!. The toilet brush is calling from my trunk!.
Thanks Neon, have a great day!Www@QuestionHome@Com
Story Time!
As the junior nobody of Sonar Division, one of my daily jobs was dusting off all the pipes at the Diving Officer's station (several yards of pipe in varied diameters)!.
About two weeks into the deal, I began to really hate the job!. One day when my Division Officer was OOD, I mumbled my discontent loud enough so everyone in Control could hear me!.
Mr!. Anderson scolded, "Petty Officer Euwaite, if that was gold dust on those pipes you would not be complaining!."
I answered, "If this was gold dust on these pipe then I would be the LAST son of a bich you would let touch them!"
I got a good laugh!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Achew! is so right!.!.!.!.!. The moment the furnace kicks on, I start to
achew, Sun rays through the window panes I see the dust fly about
the house and settle down to rest, and my nose achews all winter,
to dust daily or not is the question, no matter dust rules, my nose knows that!.
Kudos Neon!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
