How about that? Dennis must be Fishing for recruits, I guess.
Well Reg, I'm not much, but I'm not going anywhere on ya! Reminds me of
a time when I was just a kid reading Mad Magazine. Ol' Alfred E. Newman
was running a parody on Nixons re-election using an Exxon ad campaign,
when Exxon changed it's name from Standard oil gas stations. But Mad
Magazine re-did the ad with a picture of Nixon and the caption, "Nixon,
still the same old gas!"

And we all know what Tricky Dick got into! Not to mention Exxon.

Like I said, you can hang new wall paper in the outhouse, but it's still
an outhouse that stinks to high heaven.

Of Aristotle, and his philosophie,

But all be that he was a philosophre, 
Yet hadde he but litel gold in cofre.
