October 2 - Jack

Jack left on a cold, dark night, telling her he'd be home.

Fought the tide throughout the night and vanished among the foam.

He's walked these shores for 20 years,
washing the sand with his spectral tears.

Searching the shores, for his Becky-oh.

A tender touch, her gentle kiss,
How he longs to take her hand in his,

And lead her away to unseen shores.

He's been washing the sand with his spectral tears,
searching the shores for these long years.

And he'll walk the sea - forevermore.

Till he'll finds his Becky-oh.

He'll find.  His Becky-oh.

He'll find.  His Becky-oh.

Becky-oh.

Becky-oh.

Becky-oh.

Ahhh, Jack.  
Immortalized in song, but nobody ever bothered to hear his side.
Sinéad knows the tune! (link)
Mwahahahahahaa! *snort*

Tales from the Other Other Side of the Sty:

October 1 - Humpty Lumpty

As all the King's horses and all the King's men solemnly withdrew..

"I'll help", said a wizard, all crooked and thin,
Who gathered the pieces and stitched them with skin.
He worked through the night with needle and thread,
Then the town crier cheered, "Humpty's not dead!"

The crowd gathered closer, delighted at first,
But their faces went pale and they quickly dispersed.
Where once there was eggshell, now Humpty had meat,
With big beady eyeballs and two hairy feet.

Though Humpty was Humpty, still whole deep inside,
He'd seen in their faces, the wizard had lied.
He stared at his body, and started to bawl.

Then slowly began climbing back up the wall.

Poor Humpty!  Seems that repair job wasn't all it was cracked up to be!
I guess you could say his makeover went over ... easy!
Mwahahahahahaa! *snort*
