Day #5 - Rumor Has It

Rumor has it - someone in Illinois is having a Birthday today.
Rumor has it - someone is a well known and respected lady in her community.
Rumor has it - she recently did a reading of Madeline L'Engle's poem "Mrs. Noah Speaking" at her church on a Sunday evening.
Rumor has it - she read the poem verbatim.
Rumor has it - the words "platypus piss" is in the poem.
Rumor has it - the respected and well known lady in a community in Illinois said the words "platypus piss" during a Sunday evening church service and shocked the entire congregation.
Rumor has it - the respected and well known lady's daughter was completely mortified at her mother's actions and called her southern niece to tell her all about the incident.
Rumor has it - the niece laughed very hard and said she thinks it is okay to say "platypus piss" when reading a Christian poets work related to Noah's Ark because there was probably plenty platypus piss on the ark.
Rumor has it - the community has finally recovered from the incident and all is now well in the small Illinois town.
Rumor has it - the niece of the daughter's well respected mother in the small community of Illinois wishes this sweet lady a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Bless Her Heart.
Rumor has it - the well known and respected lady's daughter should be careful what funny stories she tells a certain southern niece because she might blog anything.
Rumor has it - the niece will not receive a Christmas present this year.
That is the rumor as I heard it. I felt the need to pass it along and because I said "Bless Her Heart" it is not considered gossip.
Thanks for reading the latest rumor, Rosie!
