It has been decided that on some sort of sporadic basis, I will feature one of you, my loyal readers, in a blog entry. In order to obtain this honor, you must contribute at least a nickel to Baboo’s college fund. This first one I’m doing gratis since this joker’s been on my case for weeks about seeing his name in print. 
Sung to the tune of the main stanzas of ”Yankee Doodle Dandy”….
Baboo has a friend named Joel; he is tall and runs real fast. / He named his doggie after Irish beer; Pennsylvania’s the state of his past.
In the day he is an enginerd, the kind that works with outer space./ He even caught a glimpse of the Queen, when she came to check on our arms race.
He is married to Ka(-a-)thy and they love the kabobs from Maiwand./ Virginia Tech Hokies through and through; of them, we are all quite fond.
Okay, it’s 6:45 AM. That’s all I got. CONGRATULATIONS, JOEL!!!!
Ahem, might I say that I find it rude that you chose a ‘fan’ who never checks your blog?? Some of us loyal followers could use a shout out every now and then just to know we are cared for and loved and that our loyalty is recognized and appreciated. Stinking rocket nerd gets the glory…that sucks.
Just kiddin Joel…you have to take some flack from me once and a while…or more.
Really, the song was beautiful.
Bravo!
