....and put a ring on his finger,and bells on his toes,and proclaim "wherefore hast thou smitten me these three times?...Am I not thine foot?"....For now we are completely,completely and absolutely complete in him...

Hey.I didn't type "foot"...You add a word here,...change a word there,...what've you got?...

Hey, does anybody remember the words to the Whistle Song? I wrote the darn thing, but years ago burned the Corps diary where the lyrics were originally penned, and now I can't recall all of them.

We're glad you came to visit us

da da, da da da dah.

If the Lord tarries a little while more,

We'll sing you a little song.

(whistle the tune one time through) Some of the later Corps at Emporia did some cool caliope-sounding stuff during this part.

It's good to see your smiling face

So full of love and cheer,

da da, da da da da da dah,

We'll see you again next year.

I may have the first and last verses (or parts of them) mixed up.

?????

This is kinda close:

We're so glad that you were born 'cuz if you were not here

We could not see your smiling face or hear your voice of cheer

It's hard to say "God bless you" to someone who doesn't exist

Especially on your birthday you would certainly be missed

So happy,happy birthday to someone who is so dear

And if the Lord should tarry we'll be singing to you next year.

Ok,now where are my car keys?...

Simon, I think that's a different song.

Oh, I'm so confused.

:blink:

My heart can sing,

When I pause to remember

But then my brain

Just gets all kind of numb,

Along a trail

that's winding always upward

the toughest part

is likely yet to come

But until then,

I'll try to skirt Alzheimers;

Until then,

Ginsana will be fun,

Until the day

I don't know what I'm doing

Until the day

my brain is gone.

:unsure:

Yeah,well bless Cathy Brubeck in your superior corpse,and bless you for blessing her and bless excie for loving you and bless God and all that,but I'm still confused about all these other birthday songs you'ns keep talking about...And I always thought satan was the author of confusion...

And bless Fellowshipper and all his aborigine friends...

Do your ears hang high?

Can you reach them to the sky?

Do they wrinkle when they're wet?

Do they straighten when they're dry?

Can you throw them over your shoulder

like a Continental Soldier?

Do your ears hang high?

Nope, I haven't been up all night grading . . . not me? Nobody around here is zoned out or spacey, not in the least, no sirreee.

:dance:

:sleep1:
