Rudie

You know Martha and Everett and Serta and Irish
Elton and Yoda, Bo-Peep, Sam and 'non'mous
But do you recall...the most famous poster of all?

Rudie the Red-Nosed Blogger
Was very well-read with his peers
And if you ever saw it
You'd know why he loved his beers.

All of the other bloggers
Used to laugh and call him names.
They always taunted Rudie
with insipid, nasty flames.

Then one drunken Christmas Eve,
Rudie drank too much.
Then exposed his congressman
as an embezzling, bribe-taking lush.

Then how the bloggers loved him.
And they all then praised his name.
"Rudie the beer drinking blogger -
Love that guy - He's got game!"

*tumultuous applause*

Dear Folks,
I love a challenge. The little rip-off above is one. I've always enjoyed seeing where my imagination leads when someone asks "How do the pimentos get into the olives?" or "Why is 'blue' blue?" In this case, this send-up was a bit too easy, taking all of five minutes (with a 20 min. break for bedtime) to write. But I enjoyed it anyway.

Feel free to offer me more.

The Warbler

P.S. Is there some way to attach sound to a blog?

Warbler, dear.
Loved your witty parody of this charming Christmas or Holiday carol. (Choose your preference.) Here's a challenge:
The Twelve Days of Christmas!
