Back End Emmisions

My back end emissions have yet to reach Point eight on the Richter Scale A magnitude that easily destroys large buildings Or drives locomotives off the rail Most of the time they're silent but deadly The kind that can make people mute I've also heard that a man in Kansas City Let one fly and it blew off his suit Now that's what I call a powerful emission Hope one day to blow a point eight I'll be able to rest with my life's work done Sure hope it doesn't trigger a quake!

Ha! Hi Jack. Love it, and laughed. And I didn't even know what was coming - I read the title, and thought, "Oh, that sounds good," based on the sound and cadence alone. Cheers, Doug.

"Backendy Missions" or "Bakkendemisians" - it just rolls off the tongue so nicely....
