..................................Duck I Am................................

I am Duck, Duck I am, and I do not like Chicago ham
Would you like him here or there?
I would not like him anywhere
I do not like Chicago ham, I do not like him, Duck I am

Would you like him in a house? Would you like him with a mouse?
I would not like him in a house, I could not like him with a mouse
I do not like him here or there, I do not like him anywhere
I do not like Chicago ham, I do not like him, Duck I am

Why don't you like Chicago ham? Why don't you like him, Duck I am?
It's his bragging everyday, bragging, bragging, that's all I'll say
Brags how he took the heat, brags about the list he's beat
He may have done it, I don't know, I only wish that he would go

Could you like him anyway? Would you like him in San Jose?
I could not like him anyway, I would not like him in San Jose
I would not like him in a house, I could not like him with a mouse
I could not like him here or there, I would not like him anywhere
I do not like Chicago ham, I do not like him, Duck I am

Would you like him on a boat? Could you like him with a goat?
Would you like him on a train? Could you like him on a plane?
I could not, would not, on a boat. I will not, will not, with a goat
I would not like him on a train. I could not like him on a plane
I do not like Chicago ham, I do not like him, Duck I am

You do not like him SO you say, bragging, bragging, everyday
Just come and meet him and you may, meet him and you may I say
If only you would let me be, I will meet him, then you'll see

SAY!!!, I do like Chicago ham
I do like him, Duck I am


And I would like him here or there, I would like him anywhere
I would like him in a house and I could like him with a mouse
I would like him in San Jose, I could like him anyway
I could like him on a boat, I would like him with a goat
I'd like to see him on a train, I'd take a trip upon his plane
I do like Chicago ham, I do like him, Duck I am

His brags will never bother me, never, never, you will see
For now I like him as a man, I do like that Chicago ham
Thanks for introducing us, I'd even like him on a bus
In January too you'll see, I'll actually like him at D.C.C.
I do like that Chicago ham, I do like him, Duck I am




Apologies to Theodor Seuss Geisel.

C-D,
If ESPN covered pool or monitored our boards, THAT would be their lead off story!
Pretty funny stuff.

*I would have paid a few bucks to see Fred's & SJD's facial expressions as they were reading thru that.

Them two fellas are getting 'famouser"! :D

Dennis, you seriously need therapy. That southwest bird must have telekinisised (sp) his brain addled condition over to you in Detroit. Tell him he needs to stick a hose in his ear and drain some of that joy juice out of his brain.

Only you could pull off using the word (?) "telekinisised" in a pool forum! :D

Tell the truth though....didn't you laugh at Dennis's "Ode to the Duck"? :D

Usblues, "Dr. Seuss " did not write Get Shorty. Yikes. VERY different literary genres.

Dear Seuss Breath,

Very clever...Your first 5 verses are right on target,... but the last few are pure fantasy...:rolleyes: I will be keeping my eye on you more, now that I have relieved myself of that other distraction.

Duck I am

PS..You SHOULD apologize to Mr. Geisel, AND to me..:p

I just got back from the poolroom where I gave up 6 or no-count to a pair of guys I work with. They went to 3(partners) and they play much better than Quad. We did go back & forth for awhile. One of them had to leave after about 3 hours but the other one stayed. We played a 2 out of 3 set for the time and Miller Lite. I don't know how I pulled it out but I won the set, $39.75 for time and a round or two of beer. My feet are killing me and my legs feel like rubber. The only thing that gave me hope when things seemed at their worst was knowing that Duck I Am & the Chicago Ham were getting along so well:eek: .

Freddy,

Unfortunately for you & the Duck, this IS my therapy. It was either that or get the gun.

Larry, I am beginning to believe that I am the only one around here who is not laying down a lemon when he says he can't play anymore. :D

Skin,

I walked into a poolroom back in '96 or so and saw a longtime acquaintance that I had not seen in quite a while. He asked me how I was hittin' 'em. I replied that I was hittin' 'em great and had never played better. He about had a heart attack. I asked him what was wrong and he said that nobody had ever replied that they were playing great, only that they "couldn't make a ball". I guess I just tell the truth easier than remembering lies, otherwise I would lie:) .

Last night, playing that last game for the $39.75 in time & the couple of rounds of beer, I ran six 3's, two 4's, one 5 & finally the 6 that won the set. 10years ago I would have been playing the guy 7 or no-count and robbing him:cool: .

P.S. I pretty much quit playing in 2004 or so after realizing that I couldn't see well enough to bet high in a tough game. The last big game that I had was giving California John McCue 9-7 on a very tight table and playing 5 ahead for $1000. We both played horribly. I won but I also realized that the reason I played so poorly was that I could not see well enough to play my speed.

If I could see well enough, I'd be in a poolroom tomorrow, making games with guys with no money & no heart, just like I did for 30 years.
