Now has come the time,
Quothe the Walrus,
To speak of many things,
Of ships, and sails, and sealing wax,
And cabbages, and Kings!
I never wore a cape, but I still have my dog tags.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood a while in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One two! One two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
Oh frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in his joy.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Where are episodes of The Tick or Powdered Toastman when one needs a good laugh in life?

It's mildly disturbing that only two OLD fuckers knew what that was about!

Wow. Just went and read this. How fantastically appropriate to mark the passing of our recent election. Just my .02

Note to self: Do not melt the frayed ends of 550 cord, while wearing only boxers, because when the molten fibers drip onto your thigh, it instantly removes several layers of skin, leaving an almost perfect circular depression, while simultaneously hurting like a motherfucker.

Oh yeah....Pierce County, WA has proclaimed a state of emergency due to projected flood warnings for the Puyallup, Nisqually and Carbon rivers.... wonder how long it will take for me to map a route for my morning commute that will not cross any of these rivers. Hum maybe I should just go buy a boat?
