none the lesser, in that poem:"ABOMUNISTS REJECT EVERYTHING EXCEPT SNOWMEN. "

- “Can you please lock up before you go go go?“- “Yes, anything you want from the Universal Store, at the brink of disaster?”- “Just some chamomile tea in capital letters, please please please!“- “That is a possibility, indeed, as time goes by we play on the black keys - syncopated.”
