My Buddy Came to Visit

My buddy came to visit
Whom I haven't seen in years
I was in expectation
Of talk and two large beers

I fetched him from the airport
Himself, his wife, and bags
And dashed him to my guest room
To rest and 'chew the rag'

He asked for internet access
And being the gracious host
I gave his notebook access
He then became a ghost

I lost him in his iBook
My visiting buddy Joe
He stayed for 48 hours
And then said “cheerio”

I'm glad he came to visit
And now, of course, he's gone
But it's great times spent together
That keeps our friendship strong

There once was a fellow...

There once was a fellow named Ted
Who tried to keep dates in his head
Like screws coming loose
It wasn't much use
So he totes them in here instead.
