Something along the lines of;

There was an old man named Mike
who never rode on a bike
when asked why that was,
he replied, it's because
the saddle feels too much like a spike

But obviously much better than that.
by the way, can anyone think of a rhyme for Nantucket?

No gift indeed...seriously?

Vis-a-vis limerick -

that's exactly right, when on a bike, you're going to feel rotten, with a sore bottom, if you don't mind that spike!

Only, it should scan as a limerick, and be at least as good as yours.

Seriously - not gifts - only your presence.

Mike

Its good to see the site up and running again. we're very excited about getting together in california. As well as spending time with the family we're looking forward to a bit of dry weather and warm sunshine.
See you soon

Well, there has to be a first time for everything, and I sure don't want to be the last to participate in the banter.

Brenda, I too have a tendency to sing on siblings’ birthdays and anniversaries. I was in a class last Saturday when memory of attending a wedding in California twenty eight years ago flashed through my mind. Happy anniversary Sue and Mike.

Laura and I are looking forward to Thursday when we join the long celebration and it should be a long celebration. After all it has taken 60 years for him to get to this point.

See you all very soon.
