Very worthy attempt at putting Fox News in current perpective.

Lively and entertaining...and a great deal more skilled than Mr. Rumsfield`s work...for some reason this reminds me of the Clash`s Sandinista album.

When Mary had a little lamb,
the doctor passed out,

but...

when old macdonald had a farm,
the doctor just died right there!!!

Actually the real story is that -
Mary had a little lamb,
And then she had some more.

And then there is -
Mary had a little lamb
She fed it castor oil
Everywhere the lamb would go
It fertilised the soil

Ah the joys of poetry...

Ref stuka #3

[The Sheep turned out to be a Ram
Mary had a little Lamb.]

Is that `a Ram` or just `Ram`? ;)

stuka:

...yaar did you realise what a full tosses you threw?

...am tempted to hit this one out of the park...but the majority of the single dimensional compatriots of yours inflicited with mine-is-biggeritis and allegedly suffering from fatal depletion of sense of humour might invade this board with righteous indignation...and of course in the spirit of peace and goodwill and all that goobledicock our mandarins are cooking up there shall not give in to this satanic temptation...and refrain...

;)

...t


ps: haroon will read and comment on this later...apologise for using your board for such meanderings...blame stuka for this.

Here`s another one..

Mary had a little sheep
With the sheep she went to sleep
The Sheep turned out to be a Ram
Mary had a little Lamb.

.......i don`t quite get rap music and this needs to be taken with a good dose of cannabis - unfortunately those good old days are long gone ....... even bob dylan, the greatest poet ever, doesn`t sound too good without chemical help... for example:

Well, I took me a woman late last night,
I`s three-fourths drunk, she looked uptight.
She took off her wheel, took off her bell,
Took off her wig, said, ``How do I smell?``
I hot-footed it . . . bare-naked . . .
Out the window!

.......... however, if this is meant to be serious poetry with some kind of a profound message i missed it completely ..........
