Alas, the Toons is over..............

A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How that 'Toons used to make me smile.
And I knew 'cause Pookie had the chance
And knew us Freepers at a glance
That he'd set us grinnin' for a while.

But April 10th made me shiver
With the news FR delivered.
Bad news on the doorstep;
I couldn't take one more step.

...But something touched me deep inside
The day the Pookie Toons died.

So bye-bye, Mr. Pookie Toons guy.
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
And us good old Freeps wiped a tear from our eye
Sighgin', "This'll be the day that I die.
"this'll be the day that I die."

Beautiful!.....Now I have that “TOON” stuck in my head all day!.................
