Subject: Poems/Songs about Mudcat?
I have been doing some Kipling stuff recently and something struck me the last night. The first half of the last verse of 'If' seems particulary suitable for Mudcat. I will not post all the words here as they may already be in the DT - if not they are in tons of other places. I have given the relevant bit below -

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue
Or walk with kings nor loose the common touch
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you
If all men count with you, but none too much

How can we talk with a bigger crowd than Mudcat?
How many kings (and queens!) of folk do we have here?
Always remember, even in the more heated discussions, they are only words!
and most importantly, at the end of the day we are all equal.

My thoughts anyway:-)

Can anyone else think of any suitable, poignant, pithy or downright disgraceful stuff???

Cheers
