for Tom Beckett: More (Southern Flying) Squirrel

Dear Muse Team,

This problem has come to my attention:

~~Memo Exchange between Muses at Yellow Squirrel Landing Strip~~

Houston, the southern flying squirrel has landed with muses in Muzak.
Our own George BubbaWubberr has arrived with two rrs (not two lls),
a six pack of Tundrabird,
and a U-Halo
on wheels.
Our CES is ready to greet
the new Texas dignitaries.

*

Hey, BubbaWubberr, it's best to use all the parts:
iff'n you lahhk yr electronic grey skwerl
stewed wit muzak, jus click here and ask for Yolo.

*

NonononononoYolo, Yolo: man, if you want to submit
yer yellow skwerl with these other'n ones, well, do so here.

*

ACk! No: Never do it with that one, I'm crushed
garlic, Girl!--canned mushroom & bye-bye!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Team, this is sickening. Can we talk to Dick about it?

Forever Yours,
Little BubbaWubberr George
CES, Yellow Squirrel Landing Strip

Hey, Tom--

Squirrel-power's loads of fun! I see Crag's got a pome up at yr place: dang: maybe it's time to think about an e-anthology of such--marmocets, chipmunks, skunks--and the like, eh? Though, of course, the only one with a variety known to fly is the squirrel, which must be why squirrels, um... fly instead of fry. Oooooo, yeah bad bad skwerl puns and jokes are still coming out...

Best,
chris

Chris,
Yes, squirrels do rule.
For what it is worth though that tattoo poem is dedicated to Crag, not authored by him. Though I'm tickled that you thought he wrote it.

Chitter (that's my laugh/squirrel call)!

Tom

Tom,

Oh, yes, I was getting good at missing things in what I was reading the other day: now I've got cases of mistaken identity all over blogland :)
