2009 IS Year of Robert Burns, Scottish Poet & Strangely: ?Predessor to Msr. Mike Writens. MIKE, You Look Like Gramps. Robert has 9 Month Celebration in Scotland: "The 250th anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns has been celebrated on a global scale and as it should be - with dancing, singing, laughter and of course the odd dram. theNEWS Never Ends, Only Newscasters grow mOLD. Shirly Mike Wouldn't forget Commentos', Weep, Ultees' Fav. In Scotland there Might NOT Be Much Money ($500/Person/Anos), Nor Much of Anything Modern, yet there is Writings & People Whom Enjoy Investigating How, Oh, GOD, How could this ALL Be true. Of Course Much of Writens where Flower Inspired, yet Snuffles Licuer, On Journy to Center of Earth, Via Navy & Army, Use Corresspondents from ALL Parts of OUR World. Good Luck with theNEWS. Sounds Like Walter Cronkike to Me.
