Someone's already done the parody -- in fact, I've heard at
least two different versions done to the "Barbara Ann" tune,
as well as one done to the tune of "Charlie Brown" ("Bomb
Iraq, take Kuwait back").  Shanklin might be able to come up
with a nice twist, though...he's very creative.

Thanks, Gaylen, but I won't put you to that bother. I can do
a websearch myself and find Paul Shanklin's URL.  (Technically,
I don't live within Net123's area; but it's the closest net to
my home, so I consider it my home, mor or less, in Fidonet.)
I also just received the first issue of my Limbaugh Letter
subscription, which came with a list of Rush's various phone
numbers and addresses; I think I'll send him the appropriate
segments from the Nodelist and invite him to logon and lurk...
under a pseudonym, of course.  (Of course, it's entirely
possible that he's already done this, using telnet to get into
a node in another area so we'd never suspect....
Oh, wow, do you suppose he's really one of the regulars here,
posting under a different name?  Nah, he wouldn't do that --
or at least he knows we'd never suspect that he'd do that, so
maybe he would.  Oh, I'm making myself dizzy with all this
circular reasoning....
