Happy Birthday, Iwanski!
Iwanskifest will conclude this evening, when we consume the Eli's Cheesecake that came in the Box o' Gout. Today is Mr. Iwanski's birthday and so I would like to sing for you a little song composed for the occasion:
Joy to the world,
Iwanski's here!
He loves hot dogs and beer.
He's funny and he's smart,
He has a great big heart.
McRibs he really loves,
and he also loves the Cubs,
and Healthy, Miss Healthypants
He loves her, too.
Chicago's his home
He loves to roam
her streets and snap some pics.
He knows about her crime,
the seedy and the grime.
He cheers the Bears and then
He cheers for them again,
Iwanski, Iwanski
We love you, dude.
There will be a full recounting of the joys of Iwanskifest tomorrow.

Oh.My.Holy.Mother of Pearl.
That was beyond hilarious. I am crying. Either you are firkin brilliant or I am easily entertained. Mind you, these need not be mutually exclusive.
I think we'll vote for the "easily entertained" today, Hat. Although, really, when one actually troubles to sing it to the proper tune and all that it is rather amusing.
Oh I sang it, trust me. It was very theatrical.
"...and healtheeeee, miss healthypants..."
Hands down the best part.
I know what Miss Healthypants and I will be singing during our next sing-a-long.
That was brilliant!
Hat, I enjoy that part as well, although the bit about the Bears makes me laugh, too.
Buck, I think you should record it. In fact, I think we should make an entire CD of Iwanskifest carols!
***guffaw*** Absolutely inspired!
Dang, you people really are easily amused, aren't you?
And later, we can celebrate with this song:
O Little Town in Wisconsin
Where cows go ‘moo’ and dance
Upon the fields where once took place
The birth of Miss Healthypants
(Well, you started it!)
A birthday, a song, and a national holiday that involves lots of food. Tis a good day to be Iwanski.
Buck,
On the first day of Iwanskifest
my true love gave to me
A big case of gout in a box.
Oh, JP, during Iwanskifest we are all Iwanski.
How long do I have to know you to get a brilliant ditty like that for my birthday (Friday, hint, hint)?
Oh, I guess you'd need to know more clever things about me, huh? Well then, never mind, I'm kinda boring, it'd take years.
(to the tune of Deck the Halls)
Box of Gaut we sing Iwanski
Fala la la laaaa la la la (belch)
Indigestion pork fat tchotchkes
Fala la la laaaa la la la (urp)
Don we now elastic waist bands
Fala la la la la la la (hiccup)
Something else that rhymes with waist bands
Fala la la la laaaa la la la
(big finish)
laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
(ruminates on Anne's message...now what rhymes with "socks"....)
Good one, Hat. Everybody sing!!!!!!!
Thank you, Lorraine, from the bottom of my McRib-clogged heart.
Thanks to everyone else for the song lyrics and well wishes.
I hope Iwanskifest is a delicious
meal. You've earned it.
Thanks again.
I'm verklempt.
hm... you seem to have a particular fondness for chicago and this iwanski feller who resides here. so...uh...when'll you be back????
A fun song for a dandy chappy. Well, he SOUNDS like a dandy chappy. Except for the Cubs thing. Sox fans, we will never understand the other ones.
lol-and again and again at the Hat taking her tune out for a spin. Oh, Hat!!
I am honored to be included in the Iwanski carols, as well. *smiles* Very funny!
Thanks, Lorraine and all!! :)
-MHP :)
Great song, Hat!
My kind of guy.....I love McRibs.....HAPPY BIRTHDAY IWANSKI.....What can't you do Lorraine...now writing music?
You are very welcome, Iwanski. Hope your birthday was terrific and here's to many more.
Monica, in a perfect world, I would be back like, next weekend. Soon I hope, soon soon soon, because it IS my kinda of town.
Booda, you really shouldn't have said that on Iwanski's birthday.
Rosie,I can't do calculus.
Or Pilates. HMOG, I really can't do Pilates.
You're so right. I was a birthday-ruining rat. I take back the Cubs remark. On birthdays, we can all be crazy about all the crazy stuff we want to be.
Normally, I'm all about belated greetings (only because I miss the real one, not because belated is better in any way), so, to make up for it: WHAT A SWEEEET combination! Dandy chappy, fantastic ambassador of a fabulous city, songs AND the Cubs. The Cubs rock and roll and rule!! Yay! Rah!
Hat makes me laffity laff.
Way to redeem yourself, Booda. Excellent.
Red, she's a funny one, wot?
