It's been awhile, and it's not like we've run out of hinky things to log, like some waiter on deck the Titanic who would respond to hole in the side by polish the silverware. Hinky already has trouble sleeping, without all that potential whistling in the dark.
It's thanksgiving, so it's right to give God thanks and praise; but in light of current (and perhaps timelss events) Hinky is feeling that it's also right to ask us to recall the words of the one who once said:
"Why boasteth thyself, O evil men;
Playing smart and not being clever, oh no!
I say you're working iniquity
To achieve vanity, yeah, if a-so a-so.
But the goodness of Jah - Jah
Idureth for Iver.
If you are the big tree,
We are the small axe
Sharpened to cut you down, (well sharp)
Ready to cut you down, oh yeah!
These are the words of my master
Keep on tellin' me - o-oh! - no weak heart shall prosper:
Oh no, they can't! Eh.
And whosoever diggeth a pit, Lord,
Shall fall in it - shall fall in it.
Whosoever diggeth a pit
Shall bury in it - shall bury in it.
If you are the big tree,
We are the small axe
Sharpened to cut you down,
Ready to cut you down.

Whosoever diggeth the pit
Shall fall in it - fall in it, eh!
Whosoever diggeth the pit
Shall bury in it - shall bury in it.
If you are the big tree,
We have a small axe
Ready to cut you down, (well sharp)
Sharpened to cut you down.
If you are the big tree,
Let me tell you this: we are the small axe
Ready to cut you down, (well sharp)
Sharpened to cut you down.
If you have a big tree ... [fadeout]
(and for you AIM users out there:)
Small Axe, Bob Marley
Hinky's Thanksgiving run-on:
Let's give thanks for Freedom-- God's gift to humanity. Yet let's not lose sight Freedom comes at a great cost, as Americans perish in the sand, without a lot of help from these free loading nations of the world, whose wealthy enjoy all the benefits of increased shareholder value for their stake in this more or less stable, free, new world order.
