Pack 12 for School Au Bears is an element of Memorial cheer. A V-Dub at U-Dub can carry Husky people. If it walks like a Duck and talks like a Duck, its probably Eugene. A Corvallis 4H Club project might involve a Beaver dam. When the left guard is a Pullman it's right up the Wazoo. Every Indian became a Cardinal for the Palo Alto faithful. The Trojan horse outside the L. A. Memorial was a Traveler. Pauley was joyous when West-Wooden Bruins ruled the court. "No day light savings time" fans are Tempe-rah-ry Sun Devils. Night game stalkers in Tucson consist mainly of Wild Cats. Buffaloed visitors sometimes lack confidence against their Boulder rivals. And it was Cousin Vinnie's traction defense that saved the day for a couple of Utes. |

The Giants Get Even Your cards might be a little red; Bedecked with bicycles on the back. But this is San Francisco, where the paths have stairs And suits are orange and black. These aren't your ordinary players; No one-eyed jacks, no suicide kings, no ladies are cheered. There are no face cards at all...just aces And misfits, like Mad-bum, the Freak, the Wisp and the Beard. McCovey Cove is right at home - Port for Blackbeard, Captain Quirk, and the White Shark. Crazed fans embrace Giant Panik (and Panda-monium) With a Pence, a Buster and a Belt at AT&T park. In 2010 the Giants break the Curse of Coogan's Bluff And the outlaws take 4 out of 5 from the Texas Ranger posse. Lincecum, Uribe and Renteria play big As does rookie of the year Buster Posey. In 2012 we sweep the Tigers in the series With the Panda going deep three times in game 1. There's a song of a boy from south Detroit filling Tiger stadium But that San Franciscan Journey lyric is a Perry fiction. In the 2014 world series everyone on deck was a wildcard And the Giants faced a Royal (flush with talent) team. But Old Country dealt 17 kays in two wins and a game 7 save (With one complete shut-out) to triple the peninsular dream. |
One Liners Draw Power An intern leaned on a fence and said to his tech abetter "Take two tablets and call me in the morning." The dispatcher asked "how did all that leaf litter get in here?" To which a cabbie replied "it was hacked with Windows open." Touch screen high tech is often stowed behind chain links So it's good that a cager doesn't always need a key board to save a game. The pharma in the Dell has e-luded many users So the i-DEA is to track such e-sales as Gateway drugs. A reporter asked a telecom PR firm manager for the key to their success To which the officer replied, "Android data is driving the enterprise." "It's CPU" said a newly graduated and tan geek-squader to his mentor Who sheepishly agreed, "that molted seal skin on the beach just isn't PC." A diner was arguing the merits of swiping a hamburger menu at a hot spot When his weary companion tweeted "stop all of that app tap rap flap crap!" A philosopher said in a GIF, "what's the meming of life?" His fellow responded "it's technically three serial seconds". The detective asked the perp how he had broken into the Microsoft office, And he calmly replied "some Java helps me with the hand shake, then Ipad softly." Gamers sometimes get locked up, but if they're frequent cell users They won't need an escape key; they'll get booted at the touch of a button. |

Semi Electric Henry is a teamster. He works the Saturn line In the new trans-light special, Hauler of oxygen and wine. He lives at higher G's than we So he's become a bit thick. But when he's high in orbit His mind is centered like a brick. He drops in once in awhile, Descending on reactionless drive... It's the constant lack of inertia That seems to keep him alive. It's lonely in interplanetary space, With only memories to keep him company. Thankfully, he's a story rich man due to c-plus relativity, Whence we've never heard it before, back through to infinity. |
Super's Being Bigger Than Life Underdog, Mighty Mouse, Super Chicken and Atom Ant Were grouped beside a makeshift pen outside a smoldering building. Beside the penned cats, dogs and pigs were caged hamsters, birds, and snakes. When the press was finished interviewing Superman, Spidey and the Tick They deigned to talk to the more diminutive humane saviors. They asked Underdog what he thought of the dog in Strange Brew, They asked Atom Ant if he'd gone to see Ant Man and the Wasp, They asked Super Chicken if he'd taken a lickin', And they asked Mighty Mouse if he'd ever gotten a mickie: So he hit the reporter in the eye so he'd know what a mouse was all about. |

Just One one voice, just one, just one gentle voice is enough to start a conversation one heart, just one, just one beating heart is enough to feel for your brother one mind, just one, just one open mind is enough for contemplation one soul, just one, just one soul is enough to be as one with another one spirit, just one, just one spirit is enough to inspire cooperation one voice, just one, just one shared voice is what keeps us working together |

Close Enough for Government Work "Why, you're a jackrabbit!" "Did you mean jackass?" "Whichever you prefer." "I think that I smell a mouse." "Did you mean a rat?" "So, you smell it too." "I wouldn't trade this putt for all of the coffee in China." "Did you mean tea?" "Well, yes, I guess it was that nice drive that got me here." "Well, let's not split bears." "Did you mean hairs?" "I guess rabbits would hop-to a bit faster." |

If you are harboring canine criminals You better not try fleeing Or you'll be scratched from the list Of fetching flying saucers allowed In Her pet part of space. |
