It's said that in late evening hours as day fades in to night
if you should chance to walk the road that winds down past the mill
You'll come across an un-marked trail that leads off to the right
take heed if then you hear the mourning cry of whip-poor-will

And only if you'd seek the truth behind the legends here
should you set foot along that path that leads to the " Kings'" glen
Where to this day they gather 'round to raise a glass in cheer
of their time in the Institute together once again

Though all have gone their sep'rate ways , their spirits linger still
on common ground tucked deep within the woods of Forest Green
I may have lost my marbles or confused them with my pills
but that bunch was the looniest that I have ever seen

And so if you are not afraid of lunatics that rhyme
or making fashion statements bound up in a tight white suit
You're welcome to come visit us we're open all the time
Our new address is  http://"stute"

( that would be pronounced "... h / tt / pco / lon slash / slash stute " )

P.S. Couldn't fit the rest in , that would be up to you M'lady .
Doc

The Doc has taken orange pills to match his orange vest
Now thinks the 'Stute's abandoned, but I know you only jest
The medication took you on a trip down mem'ry lane
And makes you dream of sanity, although you're quite insane

It's Justin Toxication causing all the Miss Behave
Addiction to a witty rhyme has turned you to a slave
Of gooey stew, straitjackets, crayon art and lunacy
But did you read the latest topic sang by our Nurse C.?
/pip/Forum39/HTML/000102.html

And finally the full address to 'Stute's new hippodrome
The latest link is: http://stute.freeservers.com
(to be read as h t t p stute freeservers com     )

Great job Doc! (Despite your intoxication.)

Ah yes this is a ballad that is worth its weight in rhyme
For Justin Kace you think this gang has scattered 'bout the net
It's surely Justin Sayne because I see them all the time
They gather when you least expect; on that I'll safely bet...

You rock !

'Though all have gone their sep'rate ways , their spirits linger still
on common ground tucked deep within the woods of Forest Green
