I used to wish I were a BS'er
But it's more fun to be a "guesser",
Now I wish I were a pedant
'Cause it's so fun to start a rant.

If I were a Guest number one,
Then I could have all the fun.

This is the stuff "Trad" is made of. You wanna find a tune, #1?

To the tune of: The Nightengale As I was a-walking one morning in May
I spied a young frog all covered in spray
Said I to the frog as I passed by the stream
I have the coffee, do you have the cream?

Then up spoke the frog in a voice bold and true
Yes, I have the cream, but how about you?
Is the coffee you offer French roast or Andean?
Or is it espresso, or only green bean?

Oh I have espresso, the very best kind
I tell you truly to ease your mind
And a little Drambuie to flavor our drink
Said I to the frog, Now what do you think?

Said the frog Hey mister, that sounds like a deal
He got out the cream and a cup with a squeal
I got out the coffee and a cup of my own
We drank coffee together with never a groan

Now all you pedestrians I'd have you to know
Beware of your coffee, and where it does grow
For a frog's a wise feller as connoisseurs are
He can tell Colombian from Ethiopian Harrar.

Ah well.....
Jim

Whew! That's a relief. I thought I'd buggered things up good by showing off. A bad habit, I admit. However it does provide some comic relief, even if at my own expense, usually *sigh*.
