 AN EASYED LIMERICK Easy Ed is the name of the man Since ’48 he’s been a big fan Of all Hoya hoops, no matter the troops Through the years, not a flash in the pan. For some years, a member of the board As HoyaTalk discussions have soared Though he stays out of sight, his posts come from the right On the left he’s hardly adored. “He is ancient” some say with much glee “Out of touch, can’t you just see?” Too Catholic to some, a right-wing dumb bum In the past he continues to be. With Jersey he’s tangled a bit With Strummer he’s not a big hit And then as on cue, as Ed lobs a few RDF the responds with his……………..bit But mostly he enjoys all the fun A pleasure when most days are done To recall the posts and the work of our hosts And even an occasional pun. But for now Ed wanted to say “Raise a glass, a Guinness… I’ll pay” With shouts and cheers to go with the beers Easy Ed is eighty today.

Congratulations Ed. 80! Wow!  Thank God you will be safe and secure in your later years with the help of Social Security and Medicare! Hey, you didn't expect me to forgo a little honest, left wing perspective did you? Hoya Saxa! |

Haha, happy birthday, Ed. There are a lot of days on Hoyatalk where the B&G arguments are the only fun to be had, so as far as I'm concerned, it's a good thing you're around here! And at the end of the day, we're both Hoyas and Hoya fans. Enjoy the Guinness.

Happy birthday, Ed!
May the kids always stay off your lawn and liberals always lose the argument (well, that second one happens most of the time anyway).
And may the Hoyas always win, of course.
;D

Happy Birthday, Easy Ed!
Ed, you are a blessing to this board.
(Just trying to imagine recording Hoya songs at 80. Yikes.)
