As Bill would say, "HAR!"
Well done, sir!

You weren't expecting anything else were you? :-)
Why, yes we were, in fact. You've let us down.
I'll try to make up for it:
CORMORANTS FOR CHRISTMAS (by Speck Roberts)
Cormorants for Christmas,
They make me very glad!
(A Christmas without cormorants,
Ought never to be had!)
If you've no cormorants this year,
I surely wish you well,
But you won't have as much fun as,
We of the PDML.
I've found most congenial way,
This day to celebrate,
I'll raise my glass until I drink,
Frank's horizons straight.
It's Cotty whom we have to thank,
For all this cormorant fun,
It's clear he's gone to the dark side,
In more ways than just one.
But Christian was first to see,
The ideal that we seek:
A dirty, smelly seabird,
With a dead fish in its beak.
Paul Stenquist shoots a lot of cars,
In motion and at rest,
But - no offense - we all prefer,
Snaps of his grandkids best.
Should any PDML member,
Get a little out of hand,
We know Bill Robb will offer,
A gentle reprimand.
And when Doug Brewer gets upset,
You'll surely hear him shout,
The traditional invective:
"Marnie, clean your mailbox out!"
The PDML's official drink?
Of course it is tequila,
('Cause it's the only word I know,
That rhymes with Christine Aguila)
Shall we renounce our cormorants?
Not till it snows in hell!
(Or not, at least, until Dave Brooks,
Learns how to type and spell).
And so another Christmas day,
Is almost in the bag,
I wish you all a cormorant,
Or at least a damn good shag.
Who says we're not a cultured lot, with "poetry" (I used the term
loosely) like that!!
Thanks, Mark, for a good laugh. All the best to you and Dr. Lisa!!
cheers,
frank
