Ode to Wombat

Post by carrie »

Your knowledge of philosophy clears many a cloudy thread;
You seem to know ALL jazz musicians, living now or dead;
You grace these "halls" with humor and with great wit on display;
And now you've joined the hallowed few, the proud who've made 4K!

Thanks for all you add to the community, Wombat!

Carol

HIP,



Slan,
D. :party:
And many a poor man that has roved,
Loved and thought himself beloved,
From a glad kindness cannot take his eyes.

The Wombat.

The wombat lives across the seas,
Among the far Antipodes.
He may exist on Jazz and Blues,
Or then again, on very strong booze;
His distant habitat precludes
Conclusive knowledge of his moods,
But I would not engage our good mate
In any philosophical debate.


:D
Congratulations on gaining entry to the posh seats of our little billabong.


Slan,
D.



...sincere apologies to Ogden Nash...
And many a poor man that has roved,
Loved and thought himself beloved,
From a glad kindness cannot take his eyes.

Whenever I get into an argument (even just for fun) with Wombat, I always loose. :)

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

4K for Wombles!

And you haven't lost a shred of your gravitas for it.

Thanks Carol and indeed all my friends here for your kind thoughts. I hope you all know how deeply I value your friendship and enjoy the craic. This place is like one big, endless shaggy dog story. It's good to be part of it. :)

Just think of it as good practice for what you'll get when the Jesuits get their hands on you. :wink:

They get paid to argue too.

The Wombat, a man of few words, but when he speaks they usually have some thought behind them.

They always have a few words behind them. :lol:

What brought this on anyway. Did I miss a good thread?
I'm no longer trying a new posting paradigm

Yeah, I know. I never bother with the lint roller before posting.
