Yoo-hoo,

You-lu is in Wooloomooloo.

(I had just started this reply when the idea for the
three-in-pun hit.)

I noticed luanne aboard at one point, with a bio saying s/he had some fun verses to offer but didn't know quite where to place them - I just offered this as a marker and posted a welcome. But maybe I was too forward...


PS Seeing the number of "views" to this thread, it suggests that many have drunk from an empty bottle - sorry, guys! So put your own offering here?

George Bush's Inaugural Poem
(with apologies to Sam Cooke)

Don;t know much about history,
Don't know much foreign policy,
Don't remember how I got through school,
But what's it matter cause my momma says,
"Boy, if you want you can be the prez,
And what a wonderful world this will be."

Don't know much about the women's vote,
Don'te know much about the bills I wrote,
Bon't know much about the foreign vets,
I've never voted for them yet,
But I do know if your dad tries hard
He can get you in the Nation'l Guard
And what a wonderful place that can be.

Now I never claimed to be an A student,
But what's wrong with D's?
And maybe by knowing the names of my cabinet,
I can win their love for me.

Don't know much about air pollution,
Don't care much about the constitution,
Don't know much about the 'conomy
Cause it never much affected me,
But there's one thing I know for sure,
If the rich stay rich and the poor stay poor,
What a wonderful world this will be.

Don't know much about the national debt,
I've never had to pay one yet.
If we need to we can sell the states
To the Japanese at discount rates,
But I do know if things get bad
Dick and I can always call my dad
And what a wonderful world this will be.

[Rewritten song snipped]. Great stuff, TEd!

Although this is prose, I rather liked the comment by David Letterman a couple of weeks ago: "Bush isn't President. Gore isn't President. Why can't we just leave it at that?"

Why not, indeed?
