Blogroll updated
Dirtcrasher, regular commenter, has not had a link here and has not asked for one, but he deserves one. Remedied. Folks, if you have a blog and I don’t link to it, let me know and i will. URL in comments.
Also, look at HJ Popowski’s site. I don’t know what “fathom the bowl” means, but it looks like interesting stuff is there. Got a blog, Mr Popowski?
Thanks Og!
“Fathom the Bowl” is an English Drinking Song.
Lyrics:
Come all you bold heroes give an ear to me song
I will sing in the praise of good brandy and rum
There’s a clear crystal fountain near England shall roll
Give me the punch ladle I’ll fathom the bowl
Chorus (after each verse):
I’ll fathom the bowl I’ll fathom the bowl
Give me the punch ladle I’ll fathom the bowl
From France we do get brandy from Jamaica comes rum
Sweet oranges and apples from Portugal come
But stout and strong cider are England’s control
Give me the punch ladle I’ll fathom the bowl
My wife she do disturb me when I’m laid at my ease
For she does as she likes and she says as she please
My wife she’s a devil she’s black as the coal
Give me the punch ladle I’ll fathom the bowl
My father he do lie in the depths of the sea
With no stone at his head by what matters for he
There’s a clear crystal fountain near England shall roll
Give me the punch ladle I’ll fathom the bowl
A great tune to share with your friends over pints.

Thanks, pete. And done.
Now that’s REAL punch, not “Church Punch” with 7-Up and lime sherbet!
I need a straight razor.
Og,
I live downstate from you, on a gravel road, near Lebanon.
I’m a long time reader. I’m adding you to my blogroll.
You crack me up. Keep up the good work.
