Thanks for sharing that Tim, I appreciate the kind thoughts.  I don't 
know if you saw the messages that preceded this, including the small 
song fragment that this one explicates but it was a brief and 
interesting discussion.

Looking through this a few weeks later I see my usual quota of dropped 
apostrophes and the occasional missing word required to actually 
complete a thought, lost as I jumped to the next thought.  Still, just 
like I did with the original verse, again to be true to the challenge of 
the task, I just poured it out.

The second message, I believe, noted the few real-time edits that were 
made as I dashed off the verse along with a brief comment on what 
provoked them.  All kind of stream-of-consciousness and wiki-ish.  I 
just wanted to, in response to Julien's request for some lyrics, shine a 
little light on how one person might proceed with this task.
