BOTTOMED OUT

Matt Colie leaves, another rat the newsgroup ship deserting!
Gone to the dogs, indeed it has, by politics it's split.
The outside worldly pressures have us all to type reverting,
With our postings mostly missing all the wholesome, old-time
sh*t.

The glory days of ay-ess-ay are now far in the past!
The remnants but a shadow wan of what they were before.
There's little left 'cept spits and spats and siphons at the
last,
Though Bobsprit does his solid best to fatten it once more.

It's Captain Neal's departure! That's what's queered the pitch!
So for you and me, Matt Colie, I'm afraid life's...just a bitch.
