Grayson wrote this poem last year for a class he was in.

My name is Jethro Stevens.

I am seven years old.

I roll cigars to help out my mother and father.

Look at me posting on LJ!.  Hmmm, now I remember why I liked it.  I get to say more than 100 characters. =p

On FaceBook I got the idea of sharing 13 songs that are a guilty pleasure for 13 days.  I open with "Mmmm Bop," by the Hansens.
