Happy Birthday

On this day, when the century was new,
The internet stock bubble blew;
And just one year ago
The Dow Jones hit a low,
So happy birthday, Bull Market - who knew?

    So, Mr. Bull Market, Bully for you.

    But your birthday takes a backseat to

    Our David, hear that. And That.

    1959, the weather was fine

    Snow lay on the ground, and I was bed-bound

    What wonderful joy, a 7lb. boy

    So calm and be-hav-id, so we called him David.
