When first we came down from the trees Not all of us did aim to please Most improved by vast degrees Except the race of Wannabes Though they learned to walk erect And passed for us in most respects Motivation they were lacking To throw the spear or go game tracking Content to lie by other's fires They dreamed of that which to aspire When embers cooled for want of wood They pondered who among us should Re-kindle that which kept them warm So one of us who I'll call Norm Would set off deep into the night To bring the wood to make things right And so on down through history We co-exist with Wannabes And things get done when need arises By those like Norm who wear no guises Sometimes nonsense isn't . |

Andrew, Glad you liked , but I think Fudd's got it in for you now . You better watch out for him ! I heard he was saying some rather challanging things about you on second opinion . |

Hey, I know some of these Wannabes! Such a slothful bunch, aren't they?!  Denise |

Dr. Moose... never fear, I've peeled and cooked the little spud. Stop by for some Fudd Stew if you get a chance. |

I once met some Wannabes while staying with the Usetobes. They brought along the Hadtobes, but now there's only Norm & me. |
