I am pretty sure he is a tipsy gypsy from Poughkeepsie! I am loving this rhyme.

Thanks, Caren. And, I'm pretty sure I have met him somewhere along the way.

Glad you had a chuckle out of my limerick, Jack. That's why I write them from time to time.

I can wander with a man drinking dark stout. Good fun!

So true, although, I'll have a martini instead of the stout.
