'Twas Glenn Knight before Christmas
'Twas Glenn Knight before Christmas,
Thinking what to say
To fill up his quota
Of posts for the day,
When what should appear
In surplice and alb
Through mirror dot org's connection:
A virtual Jeff Kalb.
Glenn said
> Into my plans
> You're throwing a wrench.
> Can't you just instead
> Go see Harold French?
>> Now Glenn, reconsider.
>> To you I send *Hope,
>> Crossing the Threshold of*,
>> And it's signed by the Pope!
> Can't I pick my own gift?
> I'll exchange yours for money.
>> You can in twelve days
>> On your own Epiphany,
>> When one Weismann will come
>> From out of the East
>> (side of Chicago)
> With more gifts on his beast?
>> Camel? He might smoke
>> But not ride as of old;
>> No frankincense, myrrh,
>> Jay the only Gold.
>> He'll bring you the gift
>> Of Great Ideas dialogue:
>> His Mortimer Adler
>> Mail order catalog.
>> But my work here is done.
>> "See" you in the Cafe.
>> My next stop is Zaheer's
>> So I'm off to L. A.
But Glenn heard Jeff exclaim
As they signed off the site,
>> Merry Christmas to all
>> And to all a good night.
