Consultin' with the rain:
(See, I've done that...)
And my head I'd be scratchin' :
(I've done that, too...)
While my thoughts were busy hatchin' :
(Of course I've hatched things..)
Yep. Sorry all you scarecrows out there, but I meet all the criteria for a brain. I already have one, and I'm pretty darn smart-ful.
Now, if my calculations are right, there should be a road made of yellow brick somewhere close.

Owen, You'd unravel any riddle
For any individ'le
In trouble or in pain
With the thoughts you'd be thinkin'
You could be another Lincoln
If you only had a brain
*Disregard the last line Owen, we know your brain is intact :)*

G-Ma: Oh, I would tell you why
The ocean's near the shore
I could think of things I never thunk before
And then I'd sit and think some more
I would not be just a nuffin'
My head all full of stuffin'
My heart all full of pain
I would dance and be merry
Life would be a ding-a-derry
If I only had a brain
That is all, G-Ma :)

Owen K.
I know for surely that you have a brain, but if you keep chewing on that finger of yours, you might need one of them!

Auntie Wizardess Of Ozzyful: Have you ever tried Frank's Hot Sauce on your fingers? It's wonderful, and it stimulates your brain :)

Owen,
You are quite a marvelous young man. Handsome too. I see you steal things though.
I was wondering, have you seen Dorothy's red slippers? They're missing and I'm thinking that it may have been you. If you did take them, you are clearly lacking that CONSCIENCE part of the brain that you claim that you have.
If you took them because you are in the mood to travel to Kansas, try expedia.com. Those slippers won't get you anywhere.
Besides, remember that there is no place like home.
Love,
Glinda, The Good Witch of the North

Glinda: Hi.
1. I do not steal, I simply borrow.
2. I don't even know "Dorothy", let alone want her slippies.
3. I DO have a conscience, because I "returned" Grand-neighbor-mans statue like a good little munchkin would.
4. Those slippers DO work Miss Glinda. Oh wait, I don't have them. That's right. I mis-spoke didn't I?
5. Expedia.com is great, but since I'm all about research, I use http://www.airfarewatchdog.com/ , first. After all, I invented the Internet, you know.
6. You are right, there is no place like home. So, where did you say you live?
Kind regards,
Owen K ...The Good Kid Of The East

Mr. Owen K. Bentley, I know you took my oil can. I've fallin' and I can't get up. Give it back, please.
Squeakily yours,
TinMan

Owen--Good Kid of the East,
You need to read for meaning. I live in the NORTH....DUH! Wait. That wasn't very Glinda-like of me.
I apologize for my sarcasm and attitude.
That's better. Hey, look at that: I ADMITTED that I did something wrong, and I APOLOGIZED for it. That's what good people do, Owen.
You should try it sometime.
Love,
Glinda, The Good Witch from the North

TinMan: I saw your oil can velcroed to Glinda's wand. If I knew where she lived, I'd get it for you :)
Posted by: Owen K. Says To TinMan | October 16, 2007 at 11:25 AM
Miss Glinda: My, my, my. Are your stockings on too tight today?
I accept your apology, and I'm sorry I ratted you out to TinMan. However, you really should give back the oil can.

Owen, I'm going to have a little talk with Glinda for you. I'm not a-scared.
Fearlessly yours,
The Un-Cowardly Lion

Dear Mr. Lion: Thanks for your concern, but if you could just grab an apple off a tree and throw it my way, that would be great :)

I speak for scarecrows everywhere: We have brains, too! We just have to keep stuffing them back in place is all :)
Halloweenfully yours,

Dear Mr. ScareCrow: I think I know you. Have you and your wife been passing the time on the Grand Neighbors porch? Just curious.

owen k.- while your looking for that yellow brick road stay away from the white poppies-they will make you very sleepy but you are very smart,so you probably already knew that.OOOOXXXX

Aunt Nat: I found the yellow brick road, and it passes right by your house, so I'll be stopping over soon. We can sing together...
Ha, ha, ha
Ho, ho, ho
And a couple of tra - la - las
That's how we'll sing the day away...
