Art G's Golden Years

Remember that singer, Art Garfunkel
He developed a painful carbuncle
   Got down on his knees
   Said, 'Don't lance it, please'
The mere thought of blood makes me cry 'Uncle'

Of course, old Art's lost most of his hair
Back in the day, he sure had lots up there
   But once he got old
   He had this bad cold
Misdiagnosed ~ His doc shaved his head bare

You're certainly right, and I kind of liked S & G myself. Kind of... At any rate, given the attitude in the White House the last 12 years -- neither Obama nor Trump can take a joke aimed at them -- I just continue to fire away relentlessly. If we can't step back and take a little joke, what have we come to, anyway?!... Michael, your comments always make me think and grow. Appreciated, Gershon
