He respects Owl, because you can’t help respecting anybody who can spell TUESDAY, even if he doesn’t spell it right.”
- A. A. Milne
There really isn’t much else to say about Tuesday, once a person knows how to spell it.
Okay, so there’s a mediocre restaurant called Ruby Tuesday and a mediocre actress called Tuesday Weld. There’s also a rock band called ”The Almost Famous Tuesdays.”
See? Why aren’t they The Famous Tuesdays?
Folks, I think they’re on to something. Tuesday needs our help.
Fortunately, with the aid of an online poem generator, I was able to come up with some new Tuesday Literature that I really think may finally break the fame barrier.
WHERE IS THE LIVELY FISH?
LORD, DEATH!
FALL TRIPPINGLY LIKE A ROUGH TUESDAY.WOW, COURAGE!
O, DEATH!
WHERE IS THE SUNNY TUESDAY?WHY DOES THE ICE CREAM ENDURE?
ROUGH, TICKLISH TUESDAYS CALMLY VIEW A COLD, MISTY SEASON.ALL ICE CREAMS FIGHT RAINY, TICKLISH TUESDAYS.
THE TUESDAY GROWS LIKE A LIVELY VOMIT.
What do you think?

I think (I hope!) you could do better without the such aid. (”Aid”?)
But who can forget Tuesday after words like these:
“Goodbye Ruby Tuesday!
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day,
then I’m gonna miss you.”
Or
“Tuesday afternoon.
I’m just beginning to see,
Now I’m on my way.
…
I’m looking at myself, reflections of my mind.
It’s just the kind of day to leave myself behind. ”
(Whoa. I think I’ve just been hit by a truck full of nostalgia.)

Whenever I hear”Toooo-sday, Aaaaafternoon…” I sort of feel like I’ve been hit by a truck, too. Our hyper-blonde 7th grade girls’ gym teacher made us choreograph horrible little dances to that song…

How did this post get through without a reference to ‘Til Tuesday, the band that gave us Aimee Mann? Oh wait, I just added one …
