Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! Part 40 From: GUEST,Larry Boy Pratt Date: 02 Jan 01 - 04:28 PM OK, so what is the trick in getting the line breaks? I cut and pasted from MS Word. Do I need to write it directly into the box? Sorry for the run on sentences. |
Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! Part 40 From: MMario Date: 02 Jan 01 - 04:39 PM Al - *officially* according to section III sup-paragraph four of the rules, (or maybe it was Section VII, sup-paragraph XX.VIII.a) the challenges never close. larry boy - for line breaks see the new-comers FAQ thread at the top of the list, under handy HTML tricks. welcome to the mudcat. BTW - as a coda to this, I heard recently on the Radio that this man has been sentenced and fined for the damage he did to the bread. fixed by elf |

Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! Part 40 From: Áine Date: 03 Jan 01 - 02:39 PM Al and Larry Boy -- Great (better late than never) additions to this Challenge! Your songs have both been awarded the prestigious Golden Cow Chip with Harp Ribbon for giving the Keeper of the Book a great laugh once again, and have been entered into the Tome of Challenges! Cudos, thanks and congrats to both of you. ;-) -- Áine |
Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! Part 40 From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 03 Jan 01 - 02:56 PM I read somewhere in the paper over the holidays the guy has recently actually come up for sentending - but with ione thing or another I never got to reading what happened to him. Any newsaholics who can track it down and tell us? |
Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! Part 40 From: Áine Date: 03 Jan 01 - 03:36 PM Dear Kevin, To satisfy any of you Challenge!rs sense of closure on this matter ;-), I searched and found this story on MSNBC.com from November 21, 2000:
THE 38-YEAR-OLD ADVERTISING executive, convicted of squeezing, poking and crumbling $1,000 worth of baked goods during criminally finicky shopping sprees in suburban Philadelphia, was sentenced this week to 180 days' probation - 90 days each for the bread and the cookies. Ahh, I feel much better now, knowing that Sam's gotten his just desserts . . . ;-) -- Áine |
Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! Part 40 From: Aidan Crossey Date: 05 Sep 01 - 05:00 AM To the tune of "Tom Dooley" THE BALLAD OF SAM FELDMAN CHORUS Hang your head, Sam Feldman Hang you head and cry You've crushed a lot of cookies Now you'll pay the price You've crushed a lot of cookies And spoiled a lot of bread If the state police don't catch you Were sending for the Feds In the state of Pennsylvania For years your terror raged It was as if some cookie fiend Had gone on the rampage Crumbs, and nuts and chocolate chips At the scene of crime The supermarket boss is worried For his bottom line CHORUS We've installed CCTV To catch you in the act We've seen you pinch and prod and punch Our cookies you have wrecked We've seen you act maliciously And now we must resort To try your case judiciously Within the District Court CHORUS The judge's face it darkened When he viewed the videotape "Anything to add" he asked "Before I shut this case" "I thought I'd get away But I reckon I've been rumbled A pain in the ass, but then I guess That's how the cookie crumbles" CHORUS |
