No. 6 wanted to post....

....this poem.

Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the King's horses,
And all the King's men,
Couldn't put Humpty Dumpty together again.

on traveling in 2008

It's time again this Saturday
To battle with the TSA,
To zip my liquids, shed my shoes
And no wand-wielding guard refuse.

It's time again to sit alone
In terminals while voices drone
From speakers about flight delays
And canceled flights and un-comped stays.

It's time again to wonder why
They have life vests on flights that fly
Above dry land, and how straight-faced
They show you how to keep them laced.

It's time again to pack my bag.
I need to go now.
See you in a while.
