So Long, Good Buddy

Today I said goodbye to my good buddy Bandit. It's hard to believe that we welcomed him into our family in 1994, just a couple days before I started my freshman year of high school.

Since he's featured in the masthead above, I guess you could say he was this blog's unofficial mascot.

Bandit lived a long happy life. We're talking really happy. For a while, he shared a room with my brother Dexter and slept in his very own twin bed. Also, my mom would microwave his food before serving it to him. I'm still not quite sure how he communicated to her that he liked it warmed up.

Anyhow, it was good to see him at peace today.

A feminine black man made hits
In the 80s and plus a few since
Embraced by the gays
He loved purple berets
oh shit I'm thinking of prince

There once was a singer called Jacko,
Who was more than a little bit wacko...
He sang for the planet,
Had a sister called Janet,
And at half time she showed us her rack-o!

There once was a spawn of Joe Jackson
Who looked far less Nubian than Saxon
How lunarly he did walk
Despite a complexion of chalk
In peace may he now be relaxin'

There once lived a singer fantastic
Who had a face made all of plastic.
Though that fact he denied
'til the day that he died
His face morph since Thriller was drastic.

The most famous pop icon of all
Gave us "Thriller", "Bad" and "Off the Wall".
And, though, later he did
Take long "naps" with young kids,
These are facts we choose not to recall.
