Okay.

ON FIRST STROLLING INTO ALT.FOLKLORE.URBAN

Much have I surfed the Internet, and trolled,
And many tales of FOAFs' kidneys seen;
Round many Southern islands I have been
Where 'Strines their shrines to Coriolis hold.
Oft of a can-tab scam have I been told
And seen the perpetrator snoped with spleen
Or one-liners by Rudolph and Burstein.
Then I heard TERRY debunk Craig Shergold!
When to his notice comes a U.L. new,
He (and a guy who'll write C books [for food])
Update the FAQ and post to A.F.U.
Soon afterwards, some freshly Newbie-Doo'ed
September freshman will exclaim, "Furrfu!
TH1S TERRY IS A R3ALLY AWES0ME D00D!!!1!!"
