What's life if you can't laugh? Just being goofy.

I'm known to be a mover and a shaker in the PD community. Every time I feel down, I just remind my self to shake it off. If that doesn't work I order a martini-shaken not stirred of course.

PD slows me down sometimes and I often have to shake a leg to get places on time. I'm heard saying I'll be there in two shakes but it is usually more.

When researching PD I shook the family tree and found ancestors with the disease. This info shook me to the core,

My PD group met last week. There was a whole lota shakin goin on.There were more PWPs than I could shake a stick at. During the meeting someone's cane went missing so we had to shake down the newbies.The offender was easy to spot as he was shaking in his boots. All we could do was shake our heads at his audacity. After the meeting the landlord let us know the venue was no longer available. the place was no great shakes, so we shook the dust from our feet and will meet at a new location.

Hope my silliness didn't offend. I apologize if I shook you up. Well I think I have exhausted all the shaking idioms. Did I miss any?
