[cool][#0000ff]BLM got kinda cutesy on Bassrods' post. "Rub a dub dub, a dude in a tub" or something like that. I decided to get even, while also paying tribute to a fine former moderator that we (mostly) know and love.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]Here’s to BLM on BFT[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]An angler who’s tough to beat[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]On the water he’s a sight to see[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]Through wind and snow and sleet[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black] [/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]He whacks the macks and stripers [/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]And ices a lot of cutts[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]He’s always a hit with the wipers[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]But drives the rest of us nuts.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black] [/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]The Boomerang is his castle[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]From which he rules the fishes.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]He don’t put up with no hassle[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]Or care ‘bout nobody’s wishes.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black] [/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]Once afloat his eyes get glazed[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]And he’s lost in total rapture.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]By your whining he won’t be fazed,[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]While reeling in his capture.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black] [/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]His boat mates’ eyes will water too[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]From the big cigars he smokes.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]That’s a part of his routine true,[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]And you’d best not make no jokes.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black] [/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]Gotta admit he’s quite a guy[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]Who’s always quick to aid.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]He’ll help anyone who wants to try[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]And he’s open to any old trade.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black] [/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]Good fishin’ buddies are hard to find.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]Some are better than others.[/black][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][black]BLM is the bestest kind[/black][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3][/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]If you figure it by lines, you got me back by 28 times. As far as poetic license, it about 60,000 times. OK, you got me back. I'll mind my manners. For a while... [/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3][/size][/black][/font]

[cool][#0000ff]Thanks.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I have been writing verse and short stories for lotsa years. I wrote quite a few things in the past, while acting as a single (divorced) dad of three fishin' kids. I have collected those stories and put them in personalized books for each of the grandkids and they are a big hit.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]The important thing is to have a good life relationship with your kids...and then the grandkids. Make time for them, and make the time with them count. Make memories whenever you are together and in later years you will not trade those memories for anything. Nothing is more valuable.[/#0000ff]

[cool][#0000ff]Easy there, good buddy. This is a family show. But, I'll bet a lot of the goody-goodies on the board can finish the verse.[/#0000ff]
