Fast Eddy,

Respond to the following question, yes or no. Only yes or no. ONLY YES or NO.

Have you stopped wearing bells on your toes?

If the answer is yes, then we are shocked at your past. If the answer is no, then we are shocked at your present (presence).

1753 and falling!!!!!!!!!! Give me the Conquistadores

"Conquistador, there is no time
I must pay my respect
And though I came to jeer at you
I leave now with regret
And as the gloom begins to fall . . .
though you came with sword held high
You did not conquer, only die . . ."

Until then, since all my long term friends know I love to relax in the market with popular culture (Dirty Harry, Marathon Man, etc.), let's just sit around and relax with Procul Harem until the 1500s come back:

CONQUISTADOR

Conquistador, your stallion stands
In need of company
And like some angel's haloed brow
You reek of purity
I see your armor-plated breast
Has long-since lost its sheen
And in your death-masked face
There are no signs which can be seen
And though I hope for something to find
I can see no place to unwind

Conquistador, a vulture sits
Upon your silver shield
And in your rusty scabbard now
The sand has taken seed
And though your jewel-encrusted blade
Has not been plundered still
The sea has washed across your face
And taken of its fill
And though I hope for something to find
I can see no place to unwind

Conquistador, there is no time
I must pay my respect
And though I came to jeer at you
I leave now with regret
And as the gloom begins to fall
I see there is no, only all
And though you came with sword held high
You did not conquer, only die
And though I hope for something to find
I can see no place to unwind
Though I hope for, something to find
I can see no place to unwind
