Greetings, dear readers....we interrupt our indefinite hiatus to bring you some INTENSELY URGENT, GROUND-BREAKING NEWS regarding one Citizen Meow.
Today, May 6th, is Citizen Meow's birthday, and The Council is scrambling to concoct some top-secret surprises for Meow as they recover from their Cinco de Mayo hangovers. The Council has also asked us to kindly warn Meow that his surprise treats may not be ready by the time he returns to Lair 5-I, and to remind him that patience is indeed a virtue.
Additionally, in honor of Citizen Meow's birthday, the famous indie rock trio known as BABINGTON AND THE HOOTS, has released a brand-new track, in honor of The Meow. From what we have been known, THN is THE ONLY media outlet to which this exclusive song has been leaked to. Since we lack the technological capabilities to actually play it (see our previous piece on financial issues), we shall reprint the lyrics here, for one and all to marvel at the lyrical intensity of this awesome little ditty. Additionally, all of us at THN would like to wish Citizen Meow a very HAPPY HAPPY Birthday!!
Birthday Song for Meow
by Babington and The Hoots
copywright May 6, 2010
There will be...
Roast for Meow!
Steak for Meow!
Some champagne for Meow!
There will be kisses for Meow,
and a few presents for Meow!
Some treats for Meow
and sweets for Meow,
maybe an OYSTER for Meow,
or a new toaster for Meow,
I'll make a poster for Meow!
Because The Meow is oh so sweet...
Yes - it's true - he can't be beat!
Unless we're playing Badminton,
where he's really easy to beat.
But since today is Meow's birthday,
the cats will purr and E says yay!
There'll be a great big hug for Meow...
E does a little dance for Meow!
Whatever fills The Meow with glee,
that's what E wants to bring to thee...
So HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MEOW!
You're 29 - no time to frown!
Because you're great and oh so cute.
Yes, indeed, you're quite a hoot.
And I love you so...and I hope you know.
(the end)
