We bid you farewell as your stint here reaches its end.
To dear, dear Sorrento, always there in a pinch,
How long you been in this country? An inch?
For you from Rob a gift we did extracto.
Enjoy it, Pat, a shiny, new exacto.
For Brian Byrne, a pressman supreme
We wish early nights, and many a soft dream.
And to you dear reader
May the New Year be sweeter
Than ere that's gone before.
May the days be brighter,
Your load a little lighter--
But don't forget you have to come back for more.
