forgive me Frost, I mutulated your poem ... couldn't help it

SOME say the world will end in Bush's fire,
Some say in Rice's ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if I had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To know that for destruction Rice,
Is also great
And would suffice.

I am feeling grand (of sorts) Cyn!
Busy like crazy this week, from 9AM to 6PM in the classroom. But it is all good, will keep me out of trouble.
Hope you are looking forward to your island retreat - sound great. (deserved???)

Frost would probably give you a big high five and toast to your talent.
