Dave - Damn, I never get the Blogit irony right - yes, I was quite well-
acquainted with Rogers and Bin, as they were known on their LPs. What a shit programme that was - but the prizes were generous for the time. I thought Sale odf the Century was the one to go for. Easy questions, good prizes. Blockbuster was good but I was too old.

Liked your reference to the woodpeckers!   How could this possibly offend anyone - all in good spirit.

Hi Rumored- yes, and he fathered another tribe with Ketarah or some such
name - most of these tribes were fathered after he passed the hundred year mark, too.

Tony, were you in prison in the Seventies? Maybe you were watching the other side.

Or perhaps it was a horrid dream that only I had.

Tony, you should have done a sonnet about Ted Rogers and Dusty Bin for this number, surely...

Hi Afzal - I don't think it is either anti-Muslim or anti-Christian or Jew

Another fine poem.
On religion, no less, and quite to the point.  I'm still alert enough to enjoy it, but like you, much in need of rest.  I'll talk atcha on the morrow.

Anton" Cool post here man. Enigmatic - that was funny! Babylon By Bus
is an awesome double album by Bob Marley though, really kicks man.

Only thing upsetting about this post, is that you may actually like reggae music? LOL!

Antonio-yo-yo - The two by two's yes, He could've left out what was in
Engimatic's blog today.  What IS that thing?  That was a good sonnet.  Interesting to think about the 'fun' side of religion --most assuredly so.  Well done.  Sleep well.  I'm quite tuckered myself.
