Default The Barometer

I see you've subscribed to The Bulletin, but I didn't think our
mails were _that_ slow.

(Mind you, while I know when, and think I know where, I haven't a
clue about who, nor have I seen this before. Especially apposite
now as th Free Traders under other names have taken a whole
century to climb back up, and are now threatened by potential
parliamentary refusals to pass the FTA.)

Bob Crantz quoted:

He is the lunatic poet escaped from the local asylum,
Loudly he twanged on his banjo and sang with his voice like a saw-mill,
While as with fervour he sang there was borne o'er the shuddering wildwood,
Borne on the breath of the poet a flavour of rum and of onions.
