I'm off to Maine on a well-earned vacation.

Writing for  OS is a stressful vocation. 

While I'm away, keep the place tidy;

No comments too harsh, and neither too snidey. 

Keep a light on for Tink, and for heavens sake,

Don't  forget to suck up to Jake.

My place is yours, so browse through my posts.

I think you will find I'm among the best hosts.

One more thing though, and I'm sure you'll be able,

To keep your damn feet off my coffee table. 

There's beer in the fridge, some Coors and some Bud.

Please use a coaster or my name will be mud. 

Don't drop me when your posts I don't rate,

Cause Maine is  known as the "No Wi-Fi State." 

I'll be back here soon, as sure as can be,

If I haven't forgotten my user I.D.
