hush. There is much to be said,
about the man who says little
and yet imparts so much.
Who contemplates that which is uttered,
rather than letting a torrent of
miscellany spew forth and flood the air.
The words spoken infrequently
that say so much more than those which
appear with alarming regularity.
So hush, listen, pay attention.
He is a veritable mine
of information
and you might learn something.

I'm so vain,
I thought that poem was about me.

Well, maybe you are right Bill and I'm just being a little facetious with my previous comment :-)
Oh course, Rt Hon D.L. George - there was a politician. Grow a moustache, get a smart suit, and you can run the country Bill
