This thing allegiance, as I suppose,2005 Update: Expediency.
Is a ring fitted in the subject's nose,
Whereby that organ is kept rightly pointed
To smell the sweetness of the Lord's anointed.

Happy Birthday to Actonbell's husband, Ekim Road Runner Pez.
when the taxees are yellow
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Speedy Gonzales!!!
pncaek: flat pancakes eaten with melted butter and golden syrup by the Welsh for breakfast
You don't HAVE TO pay the taxes
ReplyDeleteif you're willing to take the consequences. :)
I don't think allegiance is a spelling word anymore.
ME-Liz
Allegiance: A universal handicap when accompanied by blindess.
ReplyDeletegktmcyp - an invitation for Karma to try my pancakes.
Wow, Karma, that's good.
ReplyDeleteI don't think so either, Liz.
Or confidence, Sar
No, Lula, that's condescension which is a spelling word.
Allegiance,n, Something I pledge to the flag of the United States of America. So glad they haven't yet added and to the Republic of Bush.
ReplyDeleteI can't think of anything special to say. Just saying hi to Doug (I'm back!) :D
ReplyDeleteOnly a few things on earth are worthy of this word.
ReplyDeleteMany allegiances are not well placed. Religious Kool-aid drinkers and Hitler supporters come to mind.
Allegiance: Might have been a good thing in the day of Lords and Ladies but we have computers now.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to the birthday person.
May 31st - I'll be twenty - one. ;)
My blogging allegiances are nullifying my real life
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to use a word from the prior definition as a new twist
Woof! All female commenters! *sniff* What are you wearing? Something Zockso gave you? *sniff* Woof!
ReplyDeleteTLP, I don't think we'll be changing the name of the country. Maybe the State of Texas.
ReplyDeleteMarwa, that's special enough. Thanks.
Those would be excellent examples, Jamie Dawn.
Darn it, a4g, that's what I wish I'd written.
Pia, you're such a picaro.
Eau de smartaleck. It tastes like vanilla kinda.
Allegiance~
ReplyDeleteactions and attitudes associated with adherence, also ardor and attachment, acknowledged as archaic.
*sniff*sniff*
ReplyDeleteI don't know about the vanilla. Perhaps tuna. I like tuna.
I pledge allegiance to the tuna
that comes out of the can-a
and to the Cat Couch from which it comes
One warm lap
on which I lie
purring
with birdies on my mind after all.
Ariella, I can't wait until you get to the "f"s
ReplyDeleteHaha, chatcat. I guess when you live in a dragon's den, poetry comes natural.
its Chanel #5. down, boy
ReplyDeletei only wear tuna
during phases of luna
Sar, may I have some more please?
ReplyDeleteijmxutq: I'm turning into a ninja mutant, without question
allegiance:
ReplyDelete1) knowing how to sing a really annoying song on special occasions that define your country...like a football match!
2) it is either that or being a royal subject to the crown of England. The rest of the world has realized we live in the 21st century and globalization has taken place.
Karma - but of course!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Karma. I thought I stank purty.
ReplyDeleteTrue, Monika. Here in the states we barely have crowns.
Thanks, Sar. You know how she gets when she's hungry.
Doug, if I get to the 'f's I am afriad the no profanity or vulgarity rule may become an issue.
ReplyDeleteLet's not borrow trouble.
D, that was for T&I and chatcat and all your lovable pets.
ReplyDeleteMonika's comment reminds me: during Indira Gandhi's (not related to the other Mr.G) reign they used to close the exit doors and play the national anthem after the movie in the theatres and we had to stand still like dummies and watch a scratchy print of a fluttering flag to show our allegiance. wait, that's tyrrany
the band with a wagon?
ReplyDeleteallegiance: That which cannot be believed when patriotism is consumed with force fed religion.
ReplyDeleteor something like that....
OK, Ariella. Why don't you warn me when you get to the "e"s.
ReplyDeleteAllegiance and tyranny, Karma? Would it have helped if the picture had been better?
Brer, Sreekesh! The hitch!
Something a lot like that, Princess.
I pledge allegiance to the World Wide Web. Is that wrong?
ReplyDeleteShoudn't that be expedency UNDER GOD, Mr. Dog?????!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAllegiance, n. A sometimes excessive appreciation for benefits already received.
ReplyDeleteIt's a little European, Aral.
ReplyDeleteOf course, Pansi.
allegiance-returning to blogs even after their authors disappear with week-long hangovers.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blessed Day of Scorpio Takeover.
Ave, Masil! And that was without the picture, too!
ReplyDeleteTGIF, Actonbell.
OK...I'm back.
ReplyDeleteAllegiance, n. Sworn endurance, either arbitrary or by birthright.

The pose of devotion while looking for a better offer.
