And they've removed the icon that I really want to use here.

Hey, you should come to Chicago for St. Paddy's Day. NSMA and misunderestimator are going to be here and perhaps a few others will be making the trip.

23. Well, of course I remember you singing it the other day
I just didn't know if you wanted to 'fess up to it in public.

I'll be home soon. Decide what you're in the mood for to eat. I was thinking that one Mexican restaurant we went to after the movies. It's close to the stores where we'll be going.

31. OK, song I wrote with some help from a friend
We three toads of Rochester are.
Warty butts, we hop from afar.
Hop, hop hop, hop hop, hop ho-o-op,
Hop hop hop hop, hop hop.

O!!!!!
Toads of wonder!
Toads of Light!
Toads!
The source of endless delight!

Ever singing,
Never sink-i-inng,
Setting the world a-right!
