Dana,

Could you be the one to tell him? [Wink]

We're Knights of the Round Table
We dance whene'er we're able
We do routines and chorus scenes
With footwork impeccable

We dine well here in Camelot
We eat ham and jam and Spam a lot

We're Knights of the Round Table
Our shows are formidable
But many times we're given rhymes
That are quite unsingable

We're opera-mad in Camelot
We sing from the diaphragm a lo-o-o-o-t

In war we're tough and able
Quite indefatigable
Between our quests, we sequin vests
And impersonate Clark Gable

It's a busy life in Camelot
I have to push the pram a lot

Seeing this is the third thread the news has appeared on, hopefully people will get the idea sometime soon that this is exciting news.

If reacting to this news was a nerd test, most of Hatrack flunked it. [Razz]

This was the first I heard of it, but I did Google and found out it's been reported for at least the past 9 months or so.

Oh well...

Were there really two previous threads about this???

Darn!

"It's only a model."

"Shhhh"

My name is Good King Arthur
And I like my tables round
I'm kinda like Siddharther,
'Ceptin' I wear shoes and crown

While he is sitting lotus style
I sit with backside bare
I like the way my bottom feels
upon my wooden chair

And Lancelot, that comely lad
Why he is just my type
So what if he likes Guinevere?
Her beauty is just hype.

I'm just so behind the times here.

Bob, instead of bemoaning the fact that you were totally SCOOPED, make a silly Arthur-related rhyme that could be put to song.

Of course, he was scooped by himself, since I posted it first and I got it from him.

That makes it all so much better. Not many people can outsmart themselves!
