A mosquito out searching for blood spied a farm's prize thoroughbred stud. She bit him in a place that was a disgrace. Henceforth he was just known as "Dud."

Hi Ace,
Thanks so much for reading!! I'm so glad you enjoyed!!! I do think "just" sounds better than "simply." I'll try it.
Peggy, I have read this several times, laughed, chuckled, cringed, thought ouch...'bloodsucking mosquitoes.' And then wow what terrible place did that thing bite.... lol.
