“Ode to chocolate”

Today is National Chocolate Cake Day and National Inane Answering Message Day or NIAD (Nigh-Add) for short.

So, go have a piece or two or chocolate cake and record this on your voicemail:

“I had cake. It was great.

Leave a message and I may relate.

Vanilla’s fine. Strawberry, too.

But chocolate’s the only one that’ll do.

Chocolate cake and chocolate frosting.

Chocolate from beginning to topping.

Leave a message after the beep,

Unless you’re a salesman or some beep-beep creep.”
