Sonora, you have a point. All's fair in love and poetry. I remember a character from an Aussie movie who was an unemployed social security (we call it the dole) bludger who considered himself a poet. He figured that if you say it's a poem, then it is. Here's one of his offerings, directed at his mate's occasional girlfriend.

"You are an idiot,
You are a bitch,
You shit me to tears,
I'm going down the pub."

On that note I think I'll have a pint of Dogh'd's finest.

Cinco De Mayo is over now.

Happy belated Cinco De Mayo to everyone, especially to those from Mexico or who have ties to Mexico.

Corwin, I rather like that poem. What was the name of that movie?

I once went to serious poetry reading (everyone in black turtlenecks and such) to hear "A Foreign Painter has Come Into My House and Taken a Terrible Shit". Now there's one that would look good on a Hallmark card.

I think I'll have a pint as well.

Well, better to take one than leave one behind I guess.

Yes, a pint of Felinfoel for me too, I think.

Lol, when I read the first line of your reply Psimagus I thought you were going to anagrammatise it. But on second thoughts it looks like it's already been done.

Bev, the name of the movie was Idiot Box. It's Australian and about 12 years old. The poetry aspect of it was mostly a character quirk. The plot itself revolves around two ne'er do wells who decide that they're going to change their luck by robbing a bank.

Hey--I have exactly 404 transcripts today. When I was finally able to log in, I can see "Bev 404".

Nanny Ogg might say that Irinia K might be presuaded to make you the beast with 2 backs, but I don'know what that means, I am sure.
