Memories meandered Trying to recall What secrets The centers held Chocolate Or goo Or gum To chew No one knew for sure A heavy blow Crushed it to bits Question answered No chocolate No goo No gum to chew In the center? Only the stick
Oh, no, Tim! Now I’m going to search the internet to find out which lollipops have those centers. Might just be Tootsie pops! Did you eat the crushed pieces? 🤣🎶📚 Christine
Well, to lollygag is to spend time aimlessly; idle. So, basically an in game equivalent of loitering, in which overzealous law enforcement could issue a ticket.Nov 22, 2021
Your curious way of appeasing your curiosity is amusing
But why would a hammer be required?
When sucking candy pops is the most normal way to find out
If they are sweet or sour.
“If I had a Hammer” was written by Pete Seeger and Lee Hays in 1949 in support of the Progressive movement. They recorded it as The Weavers, a folk group, at the time, but it was Peter, Paul and Mary’s cover of the song in the 60s that made it famous.
Ah I didn’t know who wrote the song, I often heard the Trini Lopez version on the radio. I’m sure the Peter, Paul and Mary version as well.
Thank you for, I haven’t listened to this upbeat song in a while, singing out love.
Hell, it would not stop beeping out the battery change warning. There was all the usual crap about it being electrical and not only that but even more about sending it back to the maker…. Yeah I was gonna put that beeping in the post. So I wellied it one. The clown world we live in is beyond belief. The latest crap here is keep your carbon footprint down by collecting your parcel from various hubs…. Expalin how people are doing that when you have to drive miles to the nearest one? Nah this is about making more dosh off you while virtue signalling and gaslighing you into believing you are saving the planet. So they can just damn well deliver the parcel I paid them to deliver to me.
I hate those stupid hub deliveries. I make them deliver here, and the drivers get lost, scared, and confused. Our house is covered with foliage, so when the drivers don’t see a house at the address (the address in at the entrance to the property), they get their panties in a wad, and just leave the packages anywhere, and I have to go on a treasure hunt for them. I built large a drop box for the delivery drivers, but they can’t seem to read “Deliveries” on the drop box, or the instructions I write in the “Instructions for the driver” on the shipping pages that read “Leave the package in the drop box.” Maybe I need to do the instructions in emojis — 🌿 🎁 ➡️ 🧺 🥰
Timothy , this is why I love you and Laurie , cats and all cos while we may live in a supposedly urban, heritage area, No one can find us and see in our last house??? Well… we COULD have eaten pizza deliveries for way along the road. but we had already had a meal.
That is how I remember them. Better off eating a Tootsie Roll directly, but I wasn’t that fond of them either. Nothing beat a Hershey bar for chocolate at the time! I have a photo of that 5 lb Hershey bar somewhere with Rick holding up. I’ll have to find it.
That is some impressive dedication to research. I guess you could have also done a taste test, but then you wouldn’t have gotten a chance to break out the hammer and get a cool photo
You got it. There’s not much drama in simply sucking a sucker to get to the center of a controversy. Using the powers of Thor are much more exciting. Thanks, JYP.
Off Center & Not Even 
Oh, no, Tim! Now I’m going to search the internet to find out which lollipops have those centers. Might just be Tootsie pops! Did you eat the crushed pieces? 🤣🎶📚 Christine
I think Tootsie Pops have the Tootsie Roll centers, and Blow Pops have have the bubble gum centers. I did eat the crashed pieces. Thanks, Christine.
Now you are a an expert on lollipops,Tim! 🤣🎶☺️
I’m more expert at lollygagging.
Watch out, Tim. This may happen! 😳🫨

There are lots of lollygaggers here in the land of mañana.

A hammer is much more dramatic. Thanks, abvr.
Lol, that’s interesting, a lover of the dramatic
Trini Lopez sang that song
If I had a hammer
I’d hammer out love between
My brothers and my sisters, ah-ah
All over this land
You are welcome Timothy

I love this :):)
Thanks, Janet.
Well, it was one way of finding out. Personally I am very fond of hammers that way.
Great tools, hammers are. Thanks, Shey.
Yeah. I took the sledge to the sealed unit carbon monoxide alarm last week to shut it up after it went bust and needed replacing.
You made sure is was really busted.

Confirming what I said the last time.
Thanks, Danzig.
Ha ha, good one!
Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Tim.
Sometimes you get the carrot, sometimes the stick.
With suckers, you always get stuck with the stick. Thanks, Brad.
I like that poem, Tim. Well done! One Dum Dum sacrificed in the process of discovery.
I did find this reference:
https://www.candygurus.com/dum-dum-chewy-pops-good-idea-terrible-execution-2/
So there are some chewy center Dum Dums. They sound awful from the review. Thanks, Lavinia.
That is how I remember them. Better off eating a Tootsie Roll directly, but I wasn’t that fond of them either. Nothing beat a Hershey bar for chocolate at the time! I have a photo of that 5 lb Hershey bar somewhere with Rick holding up. I’ll have to find it.
For a second, I thought this was a weird coincidence by a wnd blogger. I’m kinda relieved to lnow there’s no mass lollipop phenom happening!
Thanks, Leenda.
Tootsie Pops have the tootsie roll inside. I’m pretty sure Dum Dums never had anything.
I still don’t care for them even crushed.
😄
I like blow pops the best. Thanks, Nancy.
Well now, that is a perfect way to find out just what is the what!
No goo. No gum. No chocolate. No surprises!
no surprises for sure. Thanks, Dale.
🙂
Beautiful pics, no need for violence against the Dum Dums. Great song 🎶
Thanks, Holly.
So welcome. I have this strange craving for Dum Dums and a hammer.
You can hammer out your frustrations. Or whatever you need to hammer out.
I need to hammer out some Dum Dum’s … no one you know.
I know the urge.
Lolly drama and fitting words… and I think I can hear a tune too! 😉
Thanks, Marina.
That’s a novel use for it. Not so good for my teeth though at the moment. 😄
Not good for anyone’s teeth. Thanks, Miriam.
Bon_travail et bon_courage les amis Cordialement 😉
Thanks!
😉👍

Lack of sucker controversy really sucks
No sour samples in that sack of sorry suckers. So, surely they sucked.
The wise owl could have save you some time as he knows it only takes one, two, three licks to the center. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvFzOgK-V9E0)
That owl did a job on that pop. Thanks, Brian.
No idea wtf that is.
Never seen anything like it, but I’m going to guess….blue!
Love you odd ball posts!
There’s a reason for the madness. Thanks, Resa.
😄 🤣
Thanks, Ariik.
Welcome, Mr. Timothy
