Maxim of the Week

Akbar felt his back go out just as Rowena flung herself into his arms at the start of their dance routine.
Maxim:
Here I stand, I can do no other.

  4. The timbre can be hard on the lumbar.

  5. Susan,
    I've never heard that expression! Nice to be thought of with a smile, though.

    We all have to take a stand at some point, no matter how it looks to others.

    Akbar should have taken the time to lumbar up beforehand.

    Good point! Luckily it wasn't his arms that gave way. Always look on the bright side. But that's a maxim for another day!

  12. and his face says: "and now? how to go on?"... but he will manage this, as there is no other option;)

    i always love your maxims, they make me think and smile at the same time!

  13. I have a feeling that in this case, the show will certainly not go on!

    Oh,I think it will, but just not in the way it was planned. I have a feeling that Rowena will rise to the occasion and literally dance circles around Akbar.

    I'm glad you like my little scribble drawings. I do have fun making them.

  19. julie,
    I think once Akbar manages to sit down he'll be sitting out the next dance or so for a few months. I doubt that Rowena will sit still for that!
