Well,
When life hands you lemons, make lemonade and find someone with Vodka and have a
party.
Good luck to you, for the religious types, they'll keep you in their prayers,
For the photo junkies, they'll keep you in their eyepiece, for the rest, stay
out of their gunsites.
Keep us posted, we need contrary.

Hand me my costume
Please won't you pass me my mask
I have appointments I must keep with my past.
