Mr. Know and Do-It-All
When it comes to puzzles, I solve every one.
It’s just a small part of my regular fun.
I can do cryptic, obscure if you wish.
Give me a recipe, I’ll cook the dish.
My stew is nutritious, delicious and stirrable
No job you give will I find insuperable.
Difficult tasks are why I exist.
Tell an obscure joke. I’ll discover the gist.
Problems excite me. Mysteries make me shiver.
I’m the proverbial solution giver.
What is impossible pushes my button.
Give me a live sheep and I’ll give you mutton.
Since I’ve gotten older, I’ve barely slowed down.
My feats are historic all over this town.
I am the one that unlocks keyless doors.
I’ve driven off bandits and outbored known bores.
Once you push my button, I’ll go ’til I’m done.
for I’m the proverbial “call upon” one!
Prompt words are cryptic, historic, shiver, insuperable and button.
A useful chap to have around especially when i’m stuck on a crossword clue or I’ve told one of my geeky jokes!

I hope he takes it as a compliment you had meant it, Judy (“known” bores – you know I am a grammar fiend!).

Of course. I guess Mr. Know-it-all suggests the reverse but there were no negative feelings in writing it. Thanks for pointing out the “known” error. How do those get by? But….isn’t it fun finding them?

He is a sweetheart, isn’t he! No, Judy, it’s not fun spotting grammar errors in someone else’s writing. It is what I do for a living, and it’s getting worse every year.

Well, I just see it as a favor. I don’t like to have mistakes in my blog…

And you don’t, as a rule. Sometimes I come across awesome recipes that I would like to share with readers, but the grammar and spelling are so atrocious that I just can’t bring myself to do it. I feel bad about it, though.
